  1. Wow! Could you hint as to where to download it from? Amazing work man, I am a fan. Following the instructions in this thread the manuals for the games aren't moved for your MEAGRE folders to the appropriate folder in Launch Box. (This may be a mute point as this may be fixed in version 3.11)
  2. I am still on version 2.0 of eXoDOS, not sure if version 3.0 or 3.11 are out yet, I haven't seen it around. BUT, for the record for those with missing cover images, I just double checked with MEAGRE itself and those same games don't have cover images in version 2.0 of eXoDOS, so you didn't do anything wrong. Its just is. @syntax_X Thanks for the work, but there are missing images but its not your fault, but you make it sound like your install has only a handful of missing cover images, maybe you are on a different version of eXoDOS maybe? For those planning to install this, what I did to get the list of bat files was use the windows search function using "*.bat -install -autoexec" as the search parameters, this should just list the bat files minus the crud you don't need. Also when downloading metadata and media step, select the middle option to not update existing fields. The only weak spot (of no fault of anybody) of this method compared to just using MEAGRE itself is you don't have ready access to the game manuals and other PDFs, many of these old DOS game had copy protection that requires you to flip the pages of the manuals. Not a big problem, but to actually access those pdf you then have to open MEAGRE itself.... so making using Launchbox itself redundant for these type of games. If only there is a way to attach pdf files to games in Launchbox. Having said that, LaunchBox is still any amazing way to browse through your dos collection to find games you want to try.
