Same issue (different game) as the following. No way to get a backslash (\) in DOSBox running on an new HP with Vista. Anyone figured this one out yet? [I hate Vista!]
No "\" capable, therefore can't mount anything
I just got an old game that i love 2 play called "full throttle" only it wont work with windows vista for some reason. So i downloaded DOSBOX and it looked like i wuz well on my way to playing but i couldnt change the drive to my cd drive because i couldnt type ":" or "\" for some reason....if anyone has any knoledge that will help me it would be much appreciated...thank you
I get the same thing, I cannot use the \ key, how can I fix this?
==================================================================
Possible Solution.....
===================================
mount Y C:\gamelist\
y:\
dir
===================================
The code above if entered into Dosbox.conf, when you open Dosbox, it will mount, load, and go to this folder, displaying the files with-in.
Now just create batch files with the commands normally used to load doxbox games, place them in the gamelist folder (C:/gamelist)
OpenGL Non Bilinear (Filtering)
output = surface | overlay | opengl | openglnb | ddraw
What to use for output.
Default is surface.
(since 0.??)
Your search - openglnb site:wikipedia.org - did not match any documents.
Don't blame on Wikipedia. They talk about bilinear filtering. Blame on...
May Help
My keyboard (Microsoft) has a key "Ç". To see ":" I type shift + Ç. If it seems ok, try shift + another key for "\". I hope it helps you. Dixon - Brazil - Bahia.
I need a help too:
I'm trying to run the game Blackthorne. I mount c:\DOSGames and all is ok, but when I try to run the .exe file, nothing happen and the commands crashes. A friend told me that this game needs EMS memory and is necessary to add a line to config sys file, like that: himem.sys:device=c\DOS\EMM386.exe RAM.
I don't know if it is right or no. If true, how can I edit the config.sys file, or what to do to run this game?
Thank you.
May have messed up Keymapper
Ctrl-F1 no longer brings up Keymapper. I was trying to get the "\" and perhaps I messed up. How can I get keymapper back? (Am using Windows 7 and somehow in my efforts to get a c:\\ I succeeded one time and brought up Q&A, which is the old DOS program I want to work. So there must be a way .. Thanks.
You can try running DOSBOX with the command line -startmapper (it will look like dosbox -startmapper)
