Adjust mouse sensitivity in configuration options.

Sorry. missed that one. Thankies

It will first search for the old configuration filename and if it finds it, it will copy it over to the new filename. The old configuration is then deleted.

Let's say you have two games launched by the filename SIERRA.EXE and they are both configured the same way. The first time you load up the first SIERRA.EXE, it will copy over the old configuration and delete it. After this, if you load up the second SIERRA.EXE, it will not be able to find any configuration files and will default to whatever the current configuration is (which is the configuration of the last game you loaded.)

This is an easy way to copy one game configuration to another, if the need arises. Load up SOURCEGAME and then exit back to the game selection menu. Then highlight DESTGAME on the game selection menu and press the BLACK button to delete all configuration files for DESTGAME. Then press A and it should bring you to the game configuration screen where you should see that the settings are the same as SOURCEGAME. The keymappings will all be the same as SOURCEGAME as well.

What do you mean by "can't execute it"? Describe exactly what is happening and what game you are trying to run.

..nnnNnNNnnnNN!!!..

So have you actually run Xwing on DosXBox, Likklebaer? That's the one game I really really want!!

If you wouldn't mind, can you tell me which version you're running, and any special measures you had to take to get it to install? I've got the Xwing Collector's Edition CD, but I couldn't get it to install at all with DosXBox V3. I'm not sure whether it was a problem with the old version of DosXbox, or whether my Xwing CD is just plain incompatible with DOSBOX. It won't install on Windows 2000 either - I get an error saying something like "the program is trying to directly access the harddrive". Well duh! It's trying to install the game!

I'll get the latest version of DosXbox at the weekend!

I'm pretty sure I know what you're trying to say now. It's not that v6 cannot run the games, it's that it no longer automatically sets up the autoexec.bat lines for you (which you can edit manually on the game configuration screen.)

This is fixed and will be out in the near future.

Why should it?

Unmap the throttle button. Read General FAQs for configuring controllers or at least examine the various configuration options.

well for little changes like for example some bugs, its more usual to do a point release.. instead of a full on version change.. ofcourse the jump i made from 4 to 6 thats worth a version change over.. whoah.. nicely done..

2 version changes in one week.. thats a lot..

v5 vs v3.2 = tomato vs. to-mah-to

Yes, you can In the game configuration screen there is a mouse option (you can choose left/right analog or USB mouse)

you are right.. its just syntax.. but still if the developers keep this up they will be at dosxbox v52 within no time..

but dont get me wrong i am very happy to see 3 versions coming out in one week.
it shows me that the developers are passionate and very productive.
and that if ive got a problem, they can and will fix it..

also i would just like to state that i think this rox.. running my commander keen games and my supaplex and my streetrod and even simon the sorcerer..

i love it..

thank you dev guys!!

You're talking to me, right? What's all this 3rd person talk of "the developers"?

"XPort" is the name of a person ; not a group....and you've been talking to him.

i am sorry.. i didnt know that..

im not used to developers checking in regularly to talk to the masses..

and ehm. WHAT??? you dont mean to say that all these emulators are being created by one person?? that is impossible.. .. isnt it??

anyway.. i finally got this thing under control.. it runs beautifully.. exept for some games.. but im guessing i would need a 486 emulator for that.. lol.. (doom2 High seas trader..) ive read that you are experimenting with a dynamic core.. which should speedup the emulation.. or something.. im not a programmer so i wouldnt know..

the control setup is not that difficult however i find that the whole interface structure is a bit chaotic.. a lot of features i inversly proportional to a intuitive interface, i guess..

naturally i have some some suggestions..

the controller assignment is a bit cumbersome.. first having to define what i want to control with my controller.. and next actually putting under speciffic controller buttons..
my idea would be to make a menu where the buttons of the controller are listed and you just have to choose what keyboard(or mouse) key you want under it..
(and a advanced button so you can make those nice dual controller combos for frameskip etc.. which would work like it does now..)

and i have a couple other ideas.. but im tired right now.. also i can understand that you get a lot of suggestions from everybody and get a bit irritated with them.

couple of questions to finish though..
how can i upload my configs?
how can i delete a config? or has that been answered in previous messages.. ill go check after posting..
how can i put 2 keyboard keys under one controller button.. hold on.. with your somewhat cumbersome controller setup.. that shouldnt be that hard.. ok it does have its advantages..

ooh im tired.. im off to bed..

I haven't tried myself but don't bother. DosBox is a 286/386 emulator and according to my tests, the Xbox port is comparable to a 386-25/40 MHz so those games even if run, won't be playable.

No

That's because you can emulate a real fast 386. If the game doesn't use specific 486/pentium instructions it can be emulated.

Dos shell?

I haven't tried myself but just create an empty .bat file or a .bat with only a command (for example echo. or cls) and run it.
