    I must add that Daggerfall is expensive, or something is not correct with this game.. or emulation?:). Event on my strong tablet are situation when this game is laggy. I have troubles mostly indoors when I turn around.

    But Alex is right. For emulation I recommend Nvidia shield tablet(touchscreen) or nvidia shield TV (console). This device has inbuilt overclocking option. But I don’t need it – only by win95 emulation. This device is strong.

    Then I own phone honor c5. Daggerfall runs almost fine. It gives me timedemo score 1800 realtics.

    And you can try sound blaster 2.0 instead sound blaster 16. This adds more performance.

    Hi,

    no this is not stupid question. This is part what still waits for improvements, but other features were more important.

    There are some restrictions. I think I wrote them in application help, but I am not sure. Custom picture must be of 192×192 pixels and lower. Picture of this size is accepted through user interface.

    You can “cheat” it, but I don’t recommend it, because working with big images is very expensive. It’s bad. You can cheat it this way : in collection.xml find ID of your game. In “Data” folder find appropriate folder based on this ID. Inside create folder “Images”. Now each your custom image must start with “user_” prefix. For example “user_saw.png”. Copy image to “Images” folder. Now you will see this image in magic dosbox.

    So you have two ways : resize images to 192×192 pixels or use “cheat”.

    But I can add simple fix to next version and will be able load pictures of any size. I will decrease size of big images in the background automatically.

    Hi,

    I can’t now try x-wing, maybe later I can find time. But I will try compare it with other games like wing commander. Usually you have two ways.

    1. You can control with keyboard
    2. or with 2axis joystick with possible 4 buttons

    Probably you look for second way. Do following :

    1. In game profile enable “Native 2 axis support”.
    2. Virtual dpad is available in donated version. Go to virtual dpad settings and switch type to “2axis”. There is option for adding virtual buttons what emulates joystick buttons.
    3. In free version is not virtual joystick, but you can connect physical gamepad. In this case go to “Voodoo control” and setup it. You can bind physical gamepad buttons to emulated “Gamepad buttons”.

    Hi,

    it depends on game. Daggerfall is one of latest MS-DOS games and needs more power. What is your device for?

    Unfortunately it’s not issue on any device. I use bluetooth ipega controller. It is disconnected when not used for some time. But Magic Dosbox stays like should. But I searched stack overflow I see you are not first who face this issue.

    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41420025/android-app-fires-oncreate-whenever-bluetooth-keyboard-connects-disconnects

    Seems really like an issue in thread what I posted. Best is if I can simulate it, but if it will be not possible then you must help me.

    This sounds similarly to this post

    This is hard and I need simulate it. Without it I can’t do nothing. I own this keyboard k400. It has usb bluetooth receiver. Then I own standard pc usb keyboard. Maybe I can connect it to tablet with otg cable. But how do you do sleep mode? It is somewhere in android settings? Or it sleeps automatically?

    Hi,

    sorry, I missed your message 🙁 It is very good idea, but there are two troubles

    1. Google policy
    2. Trademarks and google policy

    Each game logo or custom image is potential trade mark problem and can lead to Magic Dosbox ban on google play. You can have custom images, but I can’t create sharing service where these images can be shared. Then there is another problem what google introduced only few weeks/months ago and I don’t want deal with that. They introduced new special rules for apps what shares people’s comments, votes etc. Maybe it is not so bad like I think, I checked these rules only very quickly, but I am not a lawyer. But because mDosbox was suspended 3 times for nothing…I simply don’t want do that..

    ..No, I am sorry, I exactly understand your request. And what you need makes perfect sense. I know you put a lot of work into making these batch files. And I spent a lot of time for making confortable gui in hope that nobody will never need something like this, and you are first who sent me this request after three years:) First I wanted refuse it, but after all…well, I can look at this. Version 49 is almost finished, but I can work on this feature and v50 could have it. The reason why I am not so happy is because in gui I can control input values very well and I can immediatelly warn user in possible problems. Loading images in gui prevents a lot of issues what people face when they type it manually. And not experienced people like to blame or spam with stupid questions – mostly because they did misspelling. …but I face it already, so why not to add it:)

    Hi,

    I understand you issue. Probably it is not working, else you will not ask here:) I can look at this in one of next updated. I understand that you have already created configs, but maybe will be faster use Magic Dosbox gui for mounting images. Then you can scroll to “Software section” and export autoexec to clipboard (if you really want use expert settings). Paste then clipboard in expert settings and modify.

    Best regards,
    Tony

    I am working on layout for NESticle. My goal is easily save and load states. And basic buttons for emu control. Probably I’ll add to next version new deadly strike action for firing another deadly strike.

    Wow, I must try Fellow. This really interest me. The NESticle works really very well. I give more chance to XGS. I want try apple version of Might and Magic 1 🙂

    Maybe I can create new “add” option to main menu. Something like “add NESticle profile” etc.

    I wanted play Might and Magic 1 for Apple 2. emu2-0.40.zip loads game, but is not playable and has graphical glitches. And XGS-DOS I could not get work properly. It wont load roms correctly. Maybe I need read carefully documentation.
