And while you’re at it, make sure to check out Beloko Games’ site. He posted all his ports for free after he got banned from Google Play (for using copyrighted images? I don’t know). Jedi Outcast & Jedi Academy in particular are still incredibly good games today, better than any native mobile game. And he made Quake 1-3 ports, as well as Return to Castle Wolfenstein.
And if your want some really serious action, check out DIII4A: that one’s a Doom 3 port (!!!) for Android. With a little tweaking, I was able to run it full speed on my old Note 2, and on my S7, it’s running smoothly with Ultra Detail. ??
As with Half-Life, you’ll need the original game files for all these ports. They all have great, completely configurable touch controls, so they’re all worth playing.
Xash isn’t experimental at all. There’s a 100% working port on Google Play, and there’s even a VR version. This one is insanely ingenious. ??
Usually, it appears when you have a gamepad connected. Or you can enable under Generak Settings -> Control interface with gamepad. “Reserved button” is the button which will show/hide the blue cursor, to allow control of the game itself.
Hmm… I don’t have DF2 here for testing. I tried 320×200 and 512×384 in thief and Half-Life, ingame if available, and via cfg-file editigin, but this either didn’t work or even crashed the game.
As I said, this didn’t work in the official/svn PC version of Dosbox, either. But I’ll give it another try. Thief on my phone would be uber-awesome. ?Are your sure that’s even possible? According to Mobygames, 640×480 is the lowest you can go. And when I google this, I only get DF 1 results (which is running 320×200 anyway).
I think Windows 95 games are always 640×480 or higher. I would love to get a hack to run others like Half Life or Thief at 320×200 as well, but I think this won’t work, neither in Magic Dosbox, nor in the desktop version. Let alone the buggy Win95 graphics emulation in Dosbox in general. ?Mmmhh… in that case, as a last resort, it would of course be worth a try and uninstall + reinstall Magic Dosbox. But create a backup of your profiles first (in Magic Dosbox main menu)!
This backup is a zip file that contains the MagicBox folder, and can simply be unzipped to your internal SD to restore all profiles (if you didn’t change the default path).No, not reinstall. You can clear the cache by going to the settings menu –> app settings (on my S7 it’s called “Application Manager”, may be a bit different on your phone). There, scroll down until you find Magic Dosbox in the list. Tap it once, and in the next menu, tap “Storage”, then “Clear Cache”. That’s it for Touchwiz Marshmallow, at least.
I see you’re still on Lollipop. It’s possible that the “Clear Cache” button will show up immediately when you tap on Magic Dosbox in the App Manager.
Do the same for your launcher, just to make sure.
If you can’t find the option anywhere, look for “clear cache” on Google Play, there are plenty of apps that can do the job.
Hm, strange. On my pbone, the shortcuts survive a reboot (rooted S7 Edge, 6.0.1). I:m using Nova Launcher, though, I’ve deleted the Toucbwiz launcher.
Maybe something broke when your phone crashed? Have you tried to clear the cache of Magic Dosbox and your launcher?In the key widgets’ settings, uncheck “Activate on tap only”, then you can slide from one key to another. Works on my phone.
Hi, and welcome.
My .mgc file is set up with expert settings enabled. You have two possibilites:
1. edit expert settings, and setup the path under [autoexec], so it points to your game directory
2. untick expert settings, and setup the game path in Magic Dosbox’s UI.No. 2 is probably the easier way, no. 1 is a bit more optimized for performance, because I tweaked some settings there.
Just try it out. If it doesn’t work, we’ll troubleshoot more deeply.
Ah, wait. Stupid question, but I’ve made the same mistake just now while trying again: Have you enabled Voodoo mapper inside Voodoo Control settings? Because if I don’t, only my left joystick is working.
Mh, should be pretty straightforward. At least it is on my device. I’m using an ipega 9025, connected via bluetooth without any additional stuff.
In Voodoo Control settings, I can assign each control optioms to every joystick on my gamepad (1 dpad and 2 analog sticks).
I can even map “2axis” to both my left and right analog stick at the same time. Which doesn’t make any sense, because they interfere with each other. But still, it’s perfectly possible.What joypad are you using? And what ecactly do you want to map?
