Dosbox android gog11/16/2023 ![]() ![]() The only difference is that I use the command "wine StarCraft.exe" instead of a mere "StarCraft.exe". StarCraft, it didn't need more for me than just copying the StarCraft game files into my Linux box, and running the game with "wine StarCraft.exe", and the game runs just as good as it does on Windows 7 or 10. Not much different from trying to run a Windows game in Linux with WINE. That also needs all kinds of tricks and black magic, in the form of DOSBox, ScummVM, VirtualMIDISynth, Munt, dgVoodoo2 etc. Learning (learning as in getting totally confused) about OSes and architectures at last) I personally don't find that any funnier than people (like me) trying to run old Windows or MS-DOS games on modern PCs with Windows 10. Osm: it's kinda funny (like in schadenfreude-funny) to read thread after thread pop up here or elswhere in which ppl are clumsily trying to get out of their Windows-comfort zone. These days, they even package half their games with the same cross-platform ScummVM. GOG care more about not pirating than worry about on which device in your house you play on. People have also been running GOG DOS games under ScummVM for Android for tablets & Raspberry Pi's too for years with GOG's blessing. ![]() You should be fine as long as it's your own device and you aren't uploading it anywhere. Those mini combined Bluetooth keyboard and touchpads can be a good idea too that can eliminate the need for "overlay" on-screen keyboards (and fingers getting in the way of what you're trying to see).ΔΆ. exe installer itself is generally useless to Android, you'll probably need to install on PC, then copy the installed folder over to a micro-SD memory card / via USB. conf files as some tweaking may be involved, eg, including a disc as an ISO that's "mounted" by DOS as a fake CD drive may be needed for some, or tweaking the default game speed / customizing keyboards / controllers. It does help if you know how to add games to DOSBox on the PC and understand. Some games will play better on an 8-10" tablet than a small phone screen (eg, small UI elements). How well it "translates" depends on game & screen size. It will obviously depend on the game as they were nearly all designed for keyboard / mouse / "joystick" and not touch-screens but many will technically run. Yes it's technically possible and I've successfully tested that in the past. (Magic DosBox also provides save states, but they don't work for me.) Only sound effects don't work, but it's a minor issue, music runs fine, graphics run good.Stevep78: Advice appreciated :) 1. And you also can use touch control - good setup already provided. Full blown gamepad support any way I want. I have particular success with aFreebox by Fishstix and in particular Magic DosBox by bruenor, where you can create game profiles to run the whole procedure automatically - just rename WRF.DAT to WRF.CUE and WRF.GOG to WRF.BIN for the app to recognize and use them. World Rally Fever runs fine on my Android phone and tablet! Just place the WRF.DAT and WRF.GOG files in you C drive folder and use imgmount d WRF.DAT -t iso, then run RALLY.EXE.
