Providing further information
Any suggestions for a suitable place/format for providing more detail/resources for specific games? E.g. I found that Pushover hangs for me after a few minutes if I don't disable sound; it can't be started without a keyboard attached; joystick as control method works without a hitch. I've also created an icon.png/meta.xml/dosbox.conf for use with the Homebrew Channel now that you can directly load a DOS game via DOSBox. -- Insin 01:35, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- Are you meaning something like a bug tracker?--Mjbauer95 17:06, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Windows Games
Why is there "Chip's Challenge" and "SimCity Classic" on the list, with the error reported: "This application requires Microsoft Windows." ? Those are obviously not DOS games, and don't even belong in the list at all..... --Mr. Reaper 15:16, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Then remove them! --Tantric 17:49, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- But I'm realllly lazy! And I just wanted to draw extra attention to them so more like that don't get added.... --Mr. Reaper 02:23, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
Seeing how this is about Windows 3.1, why not just set windows to use EGA MODE. VGA does not work under dosbox Wii with a certain resolution. Windows does indeed load in fact i even played chips challenge with sound. Ratix 08:32, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Game Testing
I have some contradictory information about "Cannon Fodder 1". This game seems to work just fine on my PAL Wii. So I will change the information in the list. If anybody finds this game NOT to work, download another version of the game and try again.. --TheBLUEBIRD 17:26, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Krondor is working under dosbox as long as you load from the SD card itself. Seems like there is a usb issue causing a pause in emulation. --Ratix —Preceding undated comment added 23:53, 11 August 2009 (UTC).
- Working for me too, in the newest version. Status updated.--Odiferous 23:03, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Confirmed means confirmed.
You aren't the first person to confirm it when you add a game to the list. You're the first person to report it, and it is unconfirmed. Just so we're clear, upon adding a new game to the list, there should be 0 confirmations. Vague Rant 07:58, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Version Number
It would be nice to have a space in the compatibility chart to list what version of DOS Box a game was tested under. Especially with small speed increases and other little changes happening, games that kind of worked before are likely to work now. However unless you tested the games yourself you likely have no idea what version it was tested with. TheTome —Preceding undated comment added 18:40, 10 October 2009 (UTC).
