Exodos collection - setup with D-FEND reloaded?

[thenoob]

As this exodos v2 collection takes 3 hours to unzip 370gb, 

whats the process of implementing it? Use d-fend reloaded? I got frustrated with dfend due to the installing games etc. I'm under the understanding that this is already done?

i am obviously wanting to run in in hyperspin and not stand alone mode.

are there any tweaks inside dfend reloaded that need to be done to use the exodos collection?

[thenoob]

Gotcha

dosbox is built into dfend reloaded correct so does it matter either way?

[thenoob]

Anybody know if there are some custom xml's for this massive collection? Top 100, favs etc? 

[thenoob]

Not sure where I'm going wrong.

i unpacked exodos, ran thAt long installer, no problem.  What exactly does that do?

ive set dfend and dosbox emulator paths correctly. Game audit = all green , great! 

I launch a game, greeted with this prompt.  Not too sure what it's asking me to do?

i thought also with that installer included with exodos, it installs all the games? I loaded up dfend (in the same folder as exodos) and saw nothing in my game lists? Is there a way to batch install? 

If someone can explain where I'm going wrong that be awesome.  I've followed the notes in the module, thought this one would be pretty straight fwd.??

I gotcha I was confused

so I've got the dosbox setup as my emulator, using the dosbox included in the Exodos Install.

ive run the installer, it created the games folder with the !dos subfolder in the games folder which contains the .conf for each game. No problem there

it says to have your rompath as the games folder (mine are zipped).  I audit everything's there no problem.

now the module notes you must have the !dos folder with the .conf files for each game in the rompath, it's there I can see it.

but when I launch it in RL, I'm greeted by this caption below.  I'm confused the folder structure is correct I see it all there???

[thenoob]

for references

[thenoob]

Ok I gotcha

except I'm confused how to do that, in the module notes it says an extra zipmapping file is needed?  Or Does it already exsist and has to be renamed?

thanks a bunch for your help. In all the emu's I've setup I've never dealt with zip mapping, it's new to me

[thenoob]

Awesome finally got a game to launch in RL, just need to figure out full screen/ control config.

thank you so much!!!

[thenoob]

Awesome full screen is figured out, one last question

how do you dial in the Xbox 360 in Dosbox? Does anybody have config template or can point me how to dial it in?

my searches in google come up with lots of talk about it but no dice for implementing it

[thenoob]

Well the 360 is working but I have a certain question about configs

i know these are pc games, made to play on keyboards.  But in certain games (duke nukem! Racing etc) the 360 doesn't take control, of course these are the games I want to play the most.

is there any way of incorporating the 360 across the board or at least game specific? I would really like to play duke on my controller..tankstick it works ok but the buttons are all over the place.
