Download from respective repository (OS4depot, MorphOS-files, AROS archives) and run from WB or CLI?


There is also 68k port by NovaCoder - fast and stable (10000 CPU cycles on my WinUAE box).

Note: There may be newer DosBox version for AROS (experimental) somewhere.

AROS Dosbox is done by me. V0.73 and 0.73b are the only ones available for download from AROS Archives if I recall correctly, but I also uploaded 0.74 ( (which is bug fixed vs earlier versions) elsewhere and has been added to all the AROS distros.
There's also a later svn build I did which is about 12 months newer than 0.74 which I sent to Nikolaos and is now part of AspireOS (I think).

The only "experimental" version is the build I did which includes emulation of 3dfx graphics.

As for performance, it runs very nicely. It's roughly 3-400mhz p2 performance on my core2duo AROS box (due to x86 Dosbox having JIT emulation).
Its pretty much identical to x86 linux/mac and Windows versions.

@NovaCoder

An RTG version with your 68k cpu code would rock :)

@NovaCoder

RTG-Version would be great

your version "almost" works on AROS 68k, perhaps RTG-Version would

Thanks guys

I don't want to commit to anything but I will at least make an attempt when I get the time, currently flat out with my new Wolfenstein 3D Port

That would be wonderful! Sure, AGA versions is OK for most games, but RTG has its advantages (eg. ability to run DosBox in window on WB).

From: I'm actually flying into a bug!

So as long as there isn't such a DosBox, maybe a video of PCx running 13h mode in RTG would be fun. Did that work actually? I remember trying P96/Mediator.

Would be useful only for emulators (WinUAE), I think NovaCoder is not interested enough to give this higher priority.
