MsDos Windows Games running and how ???

shavecat

So i cross this image of msdos games with windows games also like Bad Mojo or 3D ultra pinball .

(from the 8min')
So i download it any try it it did work with the games.
So it got a badmojo.sh file with this inside -

#!/bin/bash
/opt/retropie/emulators/dosbox/bin/dosbox -conf /opt/retropie/configs/pc/dosbox-SVN.conf -conf /media/usb/roms/pc/BADMOJO/AUTOEXEC.BAT -exit

and from the AUTOEXEC.BAT inside bad mojo I got that -

[autoexec]
@ECHO OFF
MOUNT -u C
MOUNT C /media/usb0/roms/pc/BADMOJO
IMGMOUNT D /media/usb0/roms/pc/BADMOJO/CD/BAD_MOJO.CUE -t iso
c:
path=C:\;z:\;c:\windows\
cd BadMojo > NUL
cls
win runexit c:\badmojo\badmojo.exe
exit

I got it working on my on pi from my usb hard drive ...
Still dont get how it really works ?
can i add games from myself ?
I did try Postal 1 and Captain Claw .
but with no successes ...
Anyone else have Info more on this ?

DoxBox is for DOS games, it doesn't support Windows games. And please don't post link to video advertising 3rd party images.

@mitu But those images also have always "EAZY HAX Toolkit" installed. I once removed the file extension BIN from CD based games in annother distro ... What a drama :D

@shavecat with dosbox you can run games for windows 3.1
I managed to emulate games like:
Alien force (1990)
Battle Beast (1995)
Freecell (1995)
Skifree (1991)
Zombie Wars (1996)
Etc ...
I managed to make Space Cadet work too ... but it works rather badly on a Raspberry pi 3B (not plus)
this is an example of the code to start the game directly from windows 3.1

#!/bin/bash
/opt/retropie/emulators/dosbox/bin/dosbox -c "mount c /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc/win311" -c "mount d /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc/zwars" -c "c:" -c "cd windows" -c "win d:\ZWARS.EXE" -c "exit"

of course, with this system, you cannot run Windows 95 games (or later) like Captain Claw
