Title: Dosbox- AGS games
Post by: Gabarts on Tue 19/06/2012 14:41:26
Maybe is the wrong section to post in but I was wondering if AGS new version games can run on Dosbox or SCUMMVM...
Do you know a quick way to custom your exe file that is compiled? (Icon, comments and so on...)

I'd like to make a DEMO soon, thanks

Dosbox is meant to run DOS games on newer machines. Newer AGS games are Win32 apps and won't run in a native DOS environment, let alone a DOS emulator.
ScummVM doesn't support AGS games yet, and might never.

If you're looking for cross-platform support, there are various ports in development (e.g. Linux, Android).

Other exe customization is possible using tools like ResHack but not recommended or encouraged.

There's an entire forum dedicated to engine development, the iOS port thread is on the first page:
