@charlesmarried try with
MOUNT C "./recalbox/share/roms/dos/alone.pc"
DIR
I can mount as you said and appears in DIR all the archives of the game, but when I type INDARK.EXE this appears:
u_u
Thank you again @voljega
@charlesmarried ok so the full content of your DOSBOXBAT should be :
MOUNT C "./recalbox/share/roms/dos/alone.pc" C: imgmount d .\cd\alone1.cue -t cdrom pause c: INDARK
you may have to rename the cue file in the cd subdir to alone1.cue, the bin file to alone1.bin and edit the content of the cue file : first line should refer to the right bin name alone1.bin :
FILE "alone1.bin" BINARY
all bin and cue names should use lowercase and nothing else
The pause command should indicate you if the mount of the cd went well
Thank you! Tomorrow I will try, now is late. Thank You.
In the dosbox.bat it is not necessary to mount Just if you make some manipulation outside from the dosbox.bat file.
The drive is automatically mounted before dosbox.bat started.
You can control this very easy if you make a small dosbox.bat with just the lines
CLS DIR/P EXIT
or just this to see what he does, this 1 line dosbox.bat
CHOICE
Even when you are starting dosbox.bat on Z: he will display you the directory in
@dragu yeah i know but re-read the whole thread : this is exactlty the problem for him apparently : his dosbox doesn't mount c or something
You cansee that in his first screenshot
@voljega
I think that his crack program was not running under dosbox (perhaps windows program?) and when the dosbox.bat has a bad program inside, he returns to z:
With the 1 line bat "CHOICE" you see best the mount before dosbox.bat is started.
When you start dosbox with the directory behind as the recalbox launcher make, dosbox from himself automatically mount It is in the binary from dosbox.
@dragu said in Always this screen when play DosBox:
I think that his crack program was not running under dosbox (perhaps windows program?) and when the dosbox.bat has a bad program inside, he returns to z:
But then we should at least see in the dos screen the mounting of and the explicit call to dosbox.bat and there is nothing... even with an empty dosbox.bat or with just dir where it show only the content of Z:
So it's not working even when not calling the crack exe
@voljega
The disc is just mounted during the execution of dosbox.bat, so with empty or fault inside, you will not see it on the screen. Tryout by yourself with 1 line bat and "choice or "pause" in this line. Till the program is activ, dosbox.bat is activ and mounted. After exit from dosbox.bat, dont exist anymore. He returns to Z:
@dragu ok but I was under the impression that he tested with just pause.
at least it didn't work with just DIR in dosbow.bat, C was not mounted because wouldn't work ?
@voljega
It works, but you dont see the result anymore
Try onetime with DIR/P (what makes him stopping and not ending dosbox.bat), you will see the directory
@dragu ok we'll see when @charlesmarried comes back and try to remove the first two lines
@dragu ok for the sake of documentation @charlesmarried managed to make the game work, so in the end the problem was indeed the calling of a windows exe like you said
I have the same problem. Your roms folder is in SD, USB or NAS?
