DOSBox-X 0.83.6 released (Announce)

posted by KormaX, 27.10.2020, 09:53

RayeR must be right. I always have my HX package in the path (somewhere, and sometimes in multiple places including dirs on RAM-disk and etc. according to how my overcomplicated setup system distributes its files for purposes) but it is a strange mixture of 2.18, 2.17 and 2.17+. On the other hand, since Wengier made it self contained, the executable doesn't work if it's renamed as it has a DOS-PE stub looking for DOSBOX-X.EXE specifically. I have more versions of DOSBox installed on my DOS, all of them controlled by a PLAY.BAT I made for this purpose, but I had to extend the version-selector script as new files can not be renamed, furthermore, the newer versions may contain useful things in ther dirs. So the newer versions require the user to execute the more precisely.

DOS isn't about why. It's about why not.
