Kriven Posted July 30, 2015 Author Posted July 30, 2015 I'm not sure how to get GOG games to launch properly without linking LaunchBox to their specific shortcut... If you rightclick the shortcut to check its Target you will see something like this: "C:\Users\Kriven\Documents\Games\JoyToKey_en\LaunchBox\Games\GOG\Akalabeth - World of Doom\DOSBOX\DOSBox.exe" -conf "..\dosboxAkalabeth.conf" -conf "..\dosboxAkalabeth_single.conf" -noconsole -c exit I'm just not sure how to associate this information in LaunchBox... do I use DOSBox.exe as the game's target file in LB? How do I tell LaunchBox to look for these specific configuration files with.. whatever that information is (-conf, -noconsole -c exit?) Quote
Jason Carr Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Most often you can completely disregard GOG's configuration. The easiest thing to do is just to use their links, but otherwise you can tell LaunchBox to use DOSBox and then point the Application Startup Path to the DOS exe. You can use the config files in the DOSBox configuration tab if you want/need to. You shouldn't need to use any emulators or command line parameters. Quote
Kriven Posted July 30, 2015 Author Posted July 30, 2015 Oh, thank you :D I'm actually really new to the Dos side of things... But thanks, now I feel like I can get everything working the way it should. Quote
Jo Shmo Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 I am able to launch my gog games but, can't close theme without a keyboard. I'm not yet using DOSbox. Is there a tutorial or thread started on this? Quote
