Review title of Antonio MariaIt's a start..
I was surprised to see a DOSBox port here and it's nice to have it here on W10M. However, this is far from perfect. First, the emulator still has problems with mouse detection (Seawolf, for example), which is quite annoying for some games. Others seem to have major visual glitches (like Dune). English patch for the witcher 2 trailer. But the thing that makes this port subpar comparing to Android ones (I have Dosbox Turbo on my Shield) is the absence of notable features, such as support for Xbox controllers (only MOGA are supported), a UI for changing important DOSBox settings (you can only do that through the text editor) and a comfortable way for individual games' presets. There is also no help file apart from a link to DB's original Wiki website (which doesn't help for app-specific things) and no way (from what I can see) to customize the on-screen keyboard. Finally, the developer seems at times..rude. Just look at his replies to a legitimate question asking why Continuum is not supported. The dev is missing the point.
Xbox support is coming (be patient), same as Continuum support (but as for work on the big screen, good workaround is available since app launch). BTW, it's not a reason to rate unique app so low! If you don't like my implementation, try to install any other 'DOSBox' port from the Windows Store (if you can find it of cause! :) ).
Ever wondered what it would be like to time travel? To see how computers were designed (software wise) and performed back then? DosBox allows your PSP to do that. Outdated may mean ‘meaningless’ to some users, but this homebrew has proved that wrong. PSP DOSBOX is a PSP port of the popular MS-DOS emulator. This emulator allows users to run DOS programs and games on their PSPs. While most users may not like the feeling of using such an outdated version of windows, some users are still interested with the whole ‘retro look’ from the dos series. Mind you, the PSP has a limited amount of ram and cpu speed. This means you won’t able to do everything dosbox can, but there are still quite a few things out there you can try out. The PSP 1000 has a 333 mhz max cpu, and 32mb ram, while the slim (2000+) and other variations has a 333mhz cpu and 64mb ram. Thus, depending on which PSP model you are using, the performance will vary. Down below I’ll give you the instructions on running DOS on your PSP.
Installation:
Dosbox
- First download the program from here. http://www.pspdosbox.co.uk/
- Extract the files and just copy over the “PSPDosbox' folder to PSP/GAME.
- Naviage to Dosbox on your PSP, and launch it.
Dosbox Download For Windows 8.1
As simple as that. You can also have a look at the compatibility list on that site above.
To experience what DOS is like, you’ll need some DOS programs and games. PSP Dosbox has it’s configuration file (“conf' file) in the Dosbox folder. By default it loads the programs from ms0:/PSP/GAME/dosbox. You can also edit this to suit your needs, and it’ll load programs from that said location.
By default the emulator keys are:
- R => Click left mouse button.
- L => Click right mouse button.
- Pad => move mouse.
- Select => Escape key. (Esc)
- Start => Enter Key.
However you also might want to consider reading this bit that I found from the DOSBox wiki.
It is also advisable to create a bat file to launch your program, as the psp’s buttons are quite limited, and it can be a chore to use it without first setting your keys. To set the keys you use “INPUTMAP PSPKEY keyboard key “. So if you were to, say, map the up key on your psp to the up on the keyboard you would have “INPUTMAP up up'. You can set this up to anything you like, but the default settings are:
INPUTMAP up up/
Dosbox For Windows 10
INPUTMAP right right
INPUTMAP down down
INPUTMAP left left
INPUTMAP triangle d
INPUTMAP square lshift
INPUTMAP cross lctrl
INPUTMAP circle lalt
Once you have everything set up with whatever that floats your boat, copy over your dos programs to the folder pointed out by the configuration file. Okay so I’m not gonna say much after this because I don’t wanna ruin it for you. Go ahead and download windows 95, and 98 or whatever DOS games or apps that you want to try out. Also take note that you can not windows 3.11 on your PSP. A maximum of 10 files can be open at the same time, and the windows 3.11 install needs way more. The best way to get windows 3.11 on your psp (pointed out by the DOS Box wiki) would be to load up the install in dosbox on your computer, install it, and then copy over the windows folder. Windows 95 and 98 also “can” be done this way, but they are extremely slow, not that Win 3.11 isn’t.
I’ll conclude this post by recommending some games might want to take shot at:
Alone It’s a bit slow, but its playable.
Wolfenstein 3D
The narrative gives the story just enough context for you to feel its weight. Dear Esther is all about observing. It starts on a sad, despondent note and gets very dark as you discover the underbelly of the island. Mod the sims 2 tactical strike gun mod 1.
WarCraft (Recommend setting frameskip to 3)
