Hi,
yes, there is progress on MIDI currently, but MIDI is partially supported in already released version 31. In midi config you must define this section :
[midi]
mpu401=intelligent
mididevice=default
mt32.thread=offThe path to ROMs is hardcoded now for development
/storage/emulated/0/MagicBox/MT32ROM/If your device does not support this path then it will not work. If yes, then place ROMs into MT32ROM folder
Today I finished mt32 library implementation with thread support. The version 32 will be released in next 7-10 days and will not have yet this modification. It will be probably in version 33, but without GUI. GUI will be added in version 34
This is plan if everything will go fine:)
EDIT : Or maybe I’ll synchronize latest midi to next version and will be available only in expert settings. Will see…

Might and Magic 6Hello,
currently bag does not provide scrolling. This means that you can have on your screen so many columns/row how many your screen allows. For example my phone can have 3 rows and nvidia shield tablet 7 rows. Currently you must set two columns with 4 rows. Maybe I can add something like scrollbar in near future. Aftewr that I can allow to have more rows.
Best regards,
TonyHi,
Dosbox architecture allows to use one thread for dosbox core. This is because it emulates PC from ancient times, when PC’s were single threaded. Must be so. It’s different architecture then f.e sony playstation. It’s multicore from nature.
For make things better Magic dosbox takes raw sound and raw graphics and process them on own separated thread. Dosbox core thread benefits from this action and gets better performance.
Additional thread handles and processes input events. This makes things cleaner and blocks spamming dosbox.
Magic Dosbox benefits from multithreaded devices – not so much like Sony Playstation emulator because of architecture, but benefits.
Hi,
Magic Dosbox is based on classic PC dosbox. I can’t tell if there is something wrong or is it normal. I will try to install the game and will see.
Yes, that could be;) This fix is for not rooted devices which has blocked write access for 3rd party apps.
How it works?
Start Global Settings and scroll down to section “SDCard and storages”. Android 5 gets new options “SD-Card permissions”. Under the title is button “Request permissions”.
This button calls standard android folder picker. In this picker switch to sdcard and pick folder where are your MS-DOS games and pick. After that your system allows to Magic Dosbox write access to this folder. This directory can be mounted like Drive C:\ now.
You can set access to whole sdcard, but this is strongly not recommended. It’s good to test this variant too, but please really backup your sdcard, or use another sdcard.
You should see picked path under the “Request permissions” button. If not, something is wrong – please report.
On earlier Android 5 versions happened that if the SDCard was without title then this picker caused crash. Title can be added during sdcard “format” phase. But this will delete whole sdcard, so beware.
After that, you will be able pick this special path in file manager. For example if you want set Drive C:\ in game profile. The special path is green colored.
Tony
