New user with a question

Post by Commander_Mario »

Hey everybody, I've was planning on doing the Commander Keen 1 mods for Christmas videos on Youtube. But the games run extremely glitchy in dosbox, never had this problem with Keens 4 - 6 before, was wondering what the problem is? Maybe DosBOX? :confused

Define "glitchy." Screen flickering? Garbage levels? Controls unresponsive?

What OS and version of DOSBox are you using? What mods did you try?

You need to run the .bat files in Dosbox for mods, not the .exe files.

... and in case your operating system hides file extensions, search for a file called "play" (= play.bat).
