Prepare d-fend and dosbox

Changing the language of d-fend after you have added a game can sometimes cause some trouble. If this has happened, remove the game config and add it again. Watch out! Read what you delete, as by default — the game directory (and icon) is selected too!

You should know:

• there is a dosbox-wiki
• and you may read MOUNT if you want install direct from CD (keep in mind 8.3-limitation of DOS…).

d-fend is just a GUI for dosbox, but it is easy to configure …and for some other old-games [some OT thoughts]

So let's begin:

• Install d-fend (using the custom settings installation, you can select the 'portable-mode')
• Execute the installed d-fend and configure the dosbox (picture A)
• Run this dosbox via double-click for the install step below Don't use the feature of dfend — as you can see in this trouble-fix post!

Your 'VirtualHD'-directory (games normally included/installed in this directory):

• Start d-fend
• Open the game directory via *Extras* ⇒ *Open games folder*

If you have an old installed and patched copy of M.A.X. already, you may now directly jump to the Config below
