Attention Fallout 2 Fans!!
I have figured out a work around for using Killaps Restoration Project 2.3
with Dosbox Turbo, I’m still working on figuring out a solution for the
QEMU version. This solution also fixes performance issues. Killaps is going
to release a new build tomorrow RP2.3.1 so this might get fixed just in
time for the new year.
To get RP2.3 working you will need to install this older High Res Patch and
replace the current files. This both fixes the scrolling problem and
improves the performance in every mode, even Direct draw 7 which was
previously unplayable. Regular non RP users will need to get this patch as
well to fix performance issues introduced my Mash’s new High res patches,
this works for both QEMU and DosBox Turbo. Note all users will want to
redownload the image files as the C.img has been updated to fix support
when using the New RP2.3 in DirectX9 Mode. Older versions will be lacking
the required win9x dll files to run this mode.

Sorry if wrote something wrong
I wish there was an alternate way to do the HDD image stuff, because I
can’t use that application to open them and stuff, because I need to wait
until the geeks clean my PC. Anyway to do this with some sort of apk.? (By
the way, the reason I’m still trying to work this, is because I still
haven’t been contacted about my refund)
Attention Dosbox Turbo Users there have been some recent changes to the app
and you may need to modify a few things to get it working properly again.
In the dosbox settings menu after you select “manual mode” there is “Config
location”. You will need to change the path to find the dosbox config in
the root directory of your internal memory.
It will say something like this(Note the path can vary depending on the
device):
/storage/emulated/0/android/data/com.fishstix.dosbox/files/dosbox.conf
Remove this part:
android/data/com.fishstix.dosbox/files/
Change it to this and it will work normally again:
/storage/emulated/0/dosbox.conf
This should redirect the data back to the root directory of your internal
storage.
Take a look at the Dosbox turbo page here:
dosboxturbo
Read a forum note about it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53184821&postcount=211
Sorry for the inconvenience the new default locations are as follows:
Default manual config file:
//Android/data/com.fishstix.dosbox/files/dosbox.conf
The default location for the manager app launcher config:
//Android/data/com.fishstix.dosboxlauncher/files/dosbox/.conf
Default dos game space that is mounted as C:
//Download/
I’ve added a new version of the Dosbox package(3.0) to the list. It should
run faster and is recommended for slower devices. The catch is that the
image is based on win95 and only has direct x 8.0 support and therefore
won’t run all the games in the supported list. The list can be found in my
XDA thread below.

2)c] Version 3.0 runs slightly faster since its based on win95 but only has
DX8.0 support and therefore doesn’t run as many games as V1.0. Use this
version to play games on a slower device that don’t require DX9C support.

Umm, hey comrade Ronald, your tutorial helped me a LOT , Subscribed, liked
but can you tell me why I installed some old games and they won’t run, I
))
mean, fallout is quite a demanding 3D game so why won’t it run a simple 2D
game?. Everytime I run it it shows a crash blue screen, prompting me to
restart computer or terminate application. Thanks in advance for your help
Comrade Tito
Fallout forever.
Hi. Thanks for the tutorial. Does this work for any pc game? when i try to
open my game in dosbox turbo I get an error saying “error starting program.
there’s not enough memory to start mount&blade.exe. Quit some programs and
then try again”. Dosbox turbo is the only thing running on my phone and i
tried rebooting my phone several times but it didn’t help. I am using a
Samsung Galaxy S3 running Android 4.4.2. Maybe this means that this game
is just to demanding for my phone’s specs? thanks
Thanks for this tutorial Roland. I have a question though. Would I be able
to run Jedi Knight Dark Forces II without using daemon tools and using the
alternative method instead?
+Roland Deschain would this work in regular non android dosbox?
Gr8 tut bro but im stuck
I’m getting a dx error I need NT version 4.0
service pack 3 or greater… Im trying to get the restoration project for

I’m gonna try to figure out how to run The Sims, since it says it’s
runable, but there’s no instructions…
Important Note added to the instructions, Please Read!!!
b]Attention Dosbox Turbo Users there have been some recent changes to the
default directory paths. Due to these changes you will now need to change
the directory path back to the old default or place the dosbox config into
the new location in step 7. You can change the default location now by
selecting “Config location” right under where you selected manual mode. You
will see a directory path similar to the one below. Note the beginning of
the path can vary depending on the type of device used.
Default manual mode config file directory path:
//android/data/com.fishstix.dosbox/files/dosbox.conf
On my Note 2:
/storage/emulated/0/android/data/com.fishstix.dosbox/files/dosbox.conf
Remove the part from between the dosbox.conf and the root directory of your
internal memory(Aka the primary external SDcard):
Before:
//android/data/com.fishstix.dosbox/files/dosbox.conf
After:
//dosbox.conf
On my Note 2:
Before:
/storage/emulated/0/android/data/com.fishstix.dosbox/files/dosbox.conf
After:
/storage/emulated/0/dosbox.conf
New Default paths for dosbox turbo files and folders:
Default manual mode config file:
//Android/data/com.fishstix.dosbox/files/dosbox.conf
Default location for the manager app launcher config:
//Android/data/com.fishstix.dosboxlauncher/files/dosbox/.conf
Default dos game space that is mounted as C:
//Download/
On my Galaxy S4 i9505 ( Snapdragon 600 ) i experience about the same
performance, maybe a bit faster at times, but it’s about the same thing.
I’m extremely excited about this! Playing all these awesome games on my
phone while i’m on the tube to work or whatever …. simply amazing ! A
single big thank you to the developer of this app isn’t enough! Thank you!
Hey, you are totally awesome! Is it possible to play Alpha Centauri using
this method?
