  • key widget can send two keys at once
  • magic dosbox inbuilt keyboard can be switched to russian version with small russian characters
  • gamepad mapper supports 8 directional keypad(Patch will be not included. Angles are too small and physical gamepad wont handle it well). Instead was added special keypad type “Diagonal” – slightly rotated 4way keypad. Now is possible bind normal 4way keypad to left stick and “diagonal” keypad to right stick. This will fix movement with gamepad in games like Champions of Krynn

Started v42 testing
Started testing of the upcoming version 42. If this reads someone who owns Android TV (Nvidia shield TV or Asus nexus player) and want help us, please contact us via email or on forum. We need 1-2 screenshots for google play made on android TV. It’s requirement to get Magic Dosbox visible through google play via Android TV. Thank you.

Thank you Alex for great videos. Real performance is better – recording slows down things
