psyklik Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Looking forward to some assistance in getting the serial ports working in DOSBox. I have set up the DOSBox config for serial ports as instructed with the following. serial1=directserial: realport:COM1 serial2=directserial: realport:COM2 Yet, I get the following message upon running DOSBOX for both instructions. "directserial:" is not a valid value for varible: type. Please review attached screenshot. Any help will be greatly appreciated, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belgarath Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 remove the : after directserial e.g. serial1=directserial realport:COM1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Belgrath beat me to it. Admittedly the way the help page lists it is kindof confusing, but if you look at the example at the bottom of the page it lists it like this: serial1=directserial realport:com1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
