DOSBox WIz - Dos Emulator for Wiz

Pickle has released a port of Dosbox for the WIz

This is the gp2x version minus the zoom feature. It also only supports 320x240(200) games. If you run something outside this size expect bad results.

The files are setup for /mnt/sd/dosbox, so make sure to change all paths if you do something different.

The setup is a little different, I moved the calling gpe script to the dosbox folder instead of in the game folder. I did this because of the shared libs. If I put it in the game folder the shared libs have to be there too. That means a copy of the shared libs would have to be in every game folder.
This causes some other side effects mainly the location of the mapper.txt. If you want to use the mapper.txt in the game folder the path in the dosbox.conf must be change i.e. ./mygame/mapper.txt You could also put the mapper.txt in the dosbox folder and maybe give a unique name, then you wouldnt need the path i.e mapper=mapper_duke.txt

Also remember no stick press, so change your mapper as needed.

Setting up dosbox isnt for the faint hearted. If you run into problems be very specific in what your doing and how your setup. I would prefer people who test the beta have had used it on the gp2x before.
