Mageslayer needs dos prompt but incompatable with dosbox
heartofdestany replied to heartofdestany's topic in DOSBox
I think I sorted it out, I remembered I had a similar problem with diablo 2, so I did what I did with that and I think it worked. In case anyone wanted to know how I got it to work, I made a shortcut to the game with -w -nofixaspect added to target in properties and then launched it direct from the shortcut. I have no idea now why dosbox helped at all ever. Sorry for wasting your time everybody.- 30 replies

It's not mounting the game, it seems like the game needs to be mounted. when I drop the mageslay.exe onto the dosbox icon it starts displaying lines of code that get added as actions are performed ingame, this dosen't happen when I use the batch file.- 30 replies

Will Mageslayer still be able to access DOSbox for code interpretation when a map transition occurs? DOSbox has to stay open the whole time Mageslayer is running will this close DOSbox and leave Mageslayer open?- 30 replies

It stays open. There is a "wait on exit." toggle does that work for fixing that?- 30 replies

Thank you syntax_X, that worked for me, I had no idea launchbox could do that, I got it in a drawing and don't alot about it's functions. This has been a real learning experience for me. Thank you everyone for your time.- 30 replies

It is a Windows 95 game, however a lot of Windows 95 games required a DOS window to be open while certain parts of the game are gotten to, in Mageslayer it is the map stitching that causes a hang when no DOS window is open. Windows 7 has no DOS anything whatsoever, same for XP, Vista, 8, 8.1 and 10. So even though, mageslayer is not a DOS game per say, I do need DOSbox open while I play it, for it to function normally.- 30 replies

Hello, I would like to launch Mageslayer through Launchbox, however I have a slight issue, The map stitching in Mageslayer requires a dos propt window to be open, DOSbox cannot launch this game. Leaving DOSbox open seems to work favorably, however DOSbox closses upon opening Mageslayer this way through Launchbox. Is there a way to suppress DOSbox from closeing when it realizes the game is not compatable?
