This also works for floppy images, in case you ever need to use any. When using the BOOT command (for booter games), you can specify several images in sequence - it will work the same as with IMGMOUNT. |

Do not mount an ISO with any virtual drives if you want to use it in DOSBox! Been there, done that, don't want to ever again: It may work, but will cause worse skipping than from the real drive. DOSBox has its' own virtual drive and you should use this one. As to how: imgmount D c:\images\game.iso -t iso Support for multiple ISO images has been added in v0.70 It works like that: imgmount D c:\images\gameiso1.iso c:\images\gameiso2.iso -t iso (You can mount more than two images, of course - this is just an example) Once mounted, CTRL+F4 cycles between the images. So if you have ISO1, ISO2 and ISO3 mounted in sequence, CTRL+F4 it will go from ISO1 to ISO2, next from ISO2 to ISO3 and when you tell it to cycle forward from ISO3, it will go back to ISO1. |

Well, how do I start the game using those ISOS? And when the game tells me to change disc, how do I do that using those ISOS? A guide or something would be nice |

Scatty | Try DaemonTools for mounting ISO's, it's very simple to use and recognizes many ISO formats. | ||

I really want to play that game using ISOS as you stated |

The Fifth Horseman | The best workaround here is creating ISO images of those CD's and using them with DOSBox' IMGMOUNT utility. This way everything is loaded from your harddrive (and that means = fast). | ||

Scatty | Try this little handy program - CD Bremse - and set the speed of the CD-ROM to a fixed speed. Either to a slow speed so it doesn't have to speed up each time and responds quickly, or to a fast speed so it's always already speeded up. | ||

I was playing a few CD-ROM games in dosbox 0.70 with my usual mounting. Say if wanted to play Rama i mounted like this (F is my real HD and D is my real cd rom). Mount f f:\games\sierra\ramados Mount d d:\ -t cdrom Then Ramados.exe starts the game and away I go. Now to the little problem I have. For instance, I was playing Rama & Psycho Pinball (cd rom versions). When in Rama I click forward, left, right or whatever, but there is a slight delay just like the cd has to think for a while before letting me doing those actions. And when in Psycho Pinball it sometimes is the same, when I load a table it takes a little while to load it (should load real quick). Just thought if there is a workaround for this "issue"? Increasing cycles doesn't seem to help anyway |
