I don't understand, could you explain the problem more step by step?

And if you can live without a front end for DosBox, it's sometimes a good idea. They can cause as many problems as they solve. But then you have to get familiar with text-editing the dosbox.conf file. Documentation. Front ends just create one of these for you, and maybe hold a game db for your games, not really rocket science.

And the default dosbox.conf file is way too big, you actually just need a much smaller one. Mine usually look something like this, (for battlezone pc/xt era game), just an autoexec and some UI/Speed settings:

Code: Select all

&#91;autoexec&#93;
mount c .\game
c&#58;
bzone
exit

&#91;render&#93;
frameskip=0
aspect=false
scaler=normal3x

&#91;sdl&#93;
fullscreen = false
output = ddraw

&#91;cpu&#93;
cycles=fixed 500

If default dosbox speed works, I delete the cpu>cycles lines, if I want to play fullscreen I change that line, and there are some fun scaler options.

But back on topic, on this problem you are having, what are you trying to do, and what changed and broke? I can't tell from the original post.

Code: Select all

&#91;cpu&#93;
cycles=8000
core=simple

&#91;render&#93;
aspect=true
scaler=none

&#91;dosbox&#93;
captures=<insert>

&#91;sdl&#93;
fulldouble=false
windowresolution=original
priority=higher,normal
mapperfile=original

&#91;dos&#93;
xms=true
ems=true
umb=true  

&#91;autoexec&#93;
mount d <insert>
d&#58;
stunts_k.exe

This is my config. file and DOSBox open and close for 1 second later

DBGL crashed at a time then i don't worked

And the link to download is not avalible and now i can't re-download it
