      It is really slow too so don't be too disappointed. It is a great game though, you should play it on your computer.

          64 would work, I can't say what isn't working. Usually if it closes after loading. Is it going back to dos? Are you seeing a fallout splashscreen?

          Are you using the Fallout.exe with DOS32A patched, or the regular one from patch 1.2 or 1.1 with DOS4GW? Either would work, but I patched the other one with dos32a myself, so maybe it is just weird.

                  Yeah lr-dosbox loads configuration a little differently, like the cycles will be at default 1000, and I don't ever use it to understand it.

                  Well heres my autoexec from Fallout.conf, it's nothing special, and it obviously isn't finalized.

                  [autoexec]
                  # Lines in this section will be run at startup.
                  # You can put your MOUNT lines here.
                  @echo off
                  mount c "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc"
                  #mount c "/home/pi/RetroPie/memorycard/dos"
                  #set PATH=%PATH%;C:\bin;C:\setedit\bin;C:\bin\HXRT\BIN
                  c:
                  cd Fallout

                          @Efriim :
                          memsize=32 (did at my 64) does go in the dosbox.conf, sorry to confuse them. They look similar, I don't type very well.
                          i think that one help .
                          but im not sure lol :)
