Post in this thread only messages with links to guides for various games (by a guide I mean here the complete description how to make a game to work in DOSBOX).
Only messages with links should be here, do not post any questions/problems here!

If LbaWin can't work for you, and even FunnyFrog patches don't work for you, or if you're using Linux or Mac OS anyway, and you almost gave up playing LBA...
Don't give up! With this guide (and with a strong computer) you will get LBA1 and LBA2 to work.

Shed, this post is related to guides for starting up some games using DOSBox NOT your regular solve/walkthrough. They are different things.

Intel i7 5960X
Gigabye GA-X99-Gaming 5
8 GB DDR4 (2100)
8 GB GeForce GTX 1070 G1 Gaming (Gigabyte)

Perhaps using the WIKI for this topic would be more beneficial? Maybe post a sticky to the WIKI url to a "Table of Contents" page or something.

Tex Murphy - Pandora Directive on DOSBox without CDs (complete pictoral guide)

http://www.fourthlaw.com/2007/03/20/tex-murph … -dosbox-wo-cds/

Please comment on the guide if you find it useful!

There is also a Tex Murphy Overseer Guide there, and will soon be a guide for Under a Killing Moon.

Have a great time!

Hey again,

Just started on a new series of video guides for Wing Commander games on DOSBox. They can be found here.

Also, each guide will have exclusive screens from the upcoming Wing Commander Saga, as well as interviews with Anton Romanyuk, the leader of the Saga team.

This is a great series of games that demands attention. 😀

Keep in mind that the list is a compatibility list, not an available for download list. You have to already own the games. Might I suggest eBay?
