Hey all.
I've read the dosbox wiki, I've read most (if not all) of the Dosbox help threads and I've googled for help without any satisfying answer.
I have two programs, "Ancient Art of War" and "Fritz 2" that I was wanting to run in Dosbox on the GP2X. Apparently AAoW is supported for the most part on the dosbox according to the wiki.
Firmware: 4.1.0 GP2X F-100
My version of Dosbox is 0.72-4 and its in /mnt/sd/dosbox, with the games as /mnt/sd/dosbox/aaow or fritz2.
The dosbox.conf is generic for both games, with only the autoexec part changed to match the game. This has the entry mapperfile=mapper.txt.
The AAoW mapper.txt is from the wiki and fritz2 I made with only 6 key binds, up, down, left, right, F1, and enter.
The gpe is the generic GPE just changed to go into the proper game directory.
All of the files are within the game directory (ie /mnt/sd/dosbox/aaow/[aaow.gpe, mapper.txt, dosbox.conf]).
Problem/Question:
My problem is I cannot get the key binds to work. Whenever I enter into either of these games it seems to work as they both start but I end up sitting there watching AAoW running its demo or Fritz 2 waiting for input. I cannot input anything. I haven't tried other games, but one that's supported and one that's not doing the same thing, I must have missed something somewhere.
According to what I've read, I've done the steps correctly and was hoping someone could point me in the proper direction.
Thanks all,
Noisome
