Great dos emulator but just dos

This is a really good dos emulator and i really like it, but the floppy disks and cd disks are not identifying. I am not sure what file types it supports, but PLEASE add support for .img and .iso disks. It isnt cool how these file types just dont work on this and that just limits a lot of things i could have done. I would assume that .flp is the type, but wheres the .iso then? Add .iso if your going to add an insert cd image tab.This is still great by the end of the day but i want these file types to be supported so i can do way more

Awesome app

This is a great app, but it does have a learning curve. For example, 1 reviewer here said that it doesn’t work with iso files, but it absolutely does. You just have to know how to mount disks (Select disk drive in portrait mode, choose your iso file location, type D: to select it, and press enter to select disk.) and navigate directories (such as typing dir to check files). It has been a great app and I love learning how to use it. The only minor complaint I have is that it doesn’t seem that you can choose a disk in landscape mode. That isn’t a problem on an iPhone, but can be a little cumbersome on iPad.

This app is great and I use it all the time to run old DOS games that I love! My only issue is that some of the DOS game I have come on multiple floppy disk images, and I can’t figure out how to install them. I can mount the first floppy disk, but when the install program asks me to insert the next disk, it won’t let me remove the first disk that I put in. I wish the interface just provided an already mounted a drive that you could just swap disk images into. I simply can’t figure out how to install games that have multiple disk images for installing them.

Multiple floppy disk installers

Many installers which use multiple floppy disks expect you to eject and insert another floppy image. There’s no way to do this, if you select a second floppy image it says there’s already an image mounted on the a: drive. You can’t unmount it without running the umount command, which is not possible during an installer. The ctrl-f4 shortcut doesn’t work when multiple floppies are selected. A UI for mounting multiple floppies and switching between them with the existing dosbox ctrl-f4 functionality would help with this issue.
