Add DOS games for dosbox and retroarch

[ReignerDeustcher]

I have all my DOS games with a dosbox inside each folder of each game and a .bat to run them separately with their own .conf

I want to be able to play some with their own dosbox and some others with retroarch (because of the shaders)

I've added some games but i see that the ''launch with'' option is disabled even i've already added the dosbox pure core in retroarch

In LaunchBox > Tools > Manage Emulators > RetroArch > Associated Platforms tab, did you enter the Associated Platform name exactly as you have it in LaunchBox?

In: Edit Game >  Emulation, did you change the game's emulator to RetroArch?

now i can't run the games that i've put with dosbox, i can see it opens the window but then it closes

the launch tab have the correct .bat, in the dosbox tab is using the correct conf file and ''use dosbox for this game'.......'' is ticked, in the mounting tab is the cd image path

You are trying to launch the Dosbox inside your game folders and LaunchBox's build in Dosbox at the same time?
