A config written for DOSBox 0.63 may not work with DOSBox 0.65.ĭOSBox 0.73 won't make a nf file where the program is installed, to make one you have to write config -writeconf nf in DOSBox.Įven if you have the floppy version of the game, I do suggest you download the free version because then you don't have to deal with 10+ year old floppies that may have errors, or have any need to patch it and so on. The config files may also be incompatible with eachother between the DOSBox versions. Daggerfall, Battlespire and Redguard have proper icons, so you can use those. You can also change the icon if you want. Feel free to copy the shortcut to your start menu, desktop or wherever you think it should be and just double-click on it to run the game.

It's important to know that DOSBox is an emulator, and as such a large resource hog for the CPU. But be aware of that the games of this guide will be installed in the same drive/partition, so be sure you got enough space (which shouldn't really be a problems as the games are relatively small).Īfter DOSBox is installed, go to the folder where you installed it and create a new folder called "Games". When it's downloaded, it's time to install it where you see fit. While DOSBox is a cross-platform program, there may be differences in the mount commands.
