The must frustrating thing is trying to what formerly was quite simple.
#DOSBOX ON ANDROID ARCHIVE#
Civ 2 is now abandonware and even is hosted at the internet archive (but stripped down of music files).

You sacrifice five percent of stability doing this though.įeel free to send me a pm if you want tips on how to do this for free. If you do this as I have, you can even stream music while playing Civ 2 which makes up for the lack of music from the internet archive. Second, many old tablets had very little usable memory because they we designed to be running many basic aps in the background such that 75% of usable memory was already allocated. Looking around the forum, and elsewhere, it seems there are two culprits. Recently I discovered that while the utilities on the forum don't work, you can use a memory ap to free up as much as possible, thus the system is now 99% stable. I have playing for two weeks, but along the way I had crashes. My Nook is a very low end device basically disabled from using anything outside of Google, but still I found free ways to make it work.Īdditionally you can use a free Playstation 1 emulator and go that route too, but I have little knowledge on the methodology. Even if you can't "sideload" aps, you still can do it.

It is not necessary to "root" your android to do this. In ten minutes, I was playing a game, downloading new maps and scenarios, and using the built in editor to make my own scenario. The second way is to use one of the WINE emulators to create a windows environment, then load Civ 2. That has worked for several, but not for me. This allows a base upon which to then load a free Windows 3.11 legacy OS. Many techheads could use dos emulators as aps. Which mean despite originally coming out in 1996, it is superior to strategy games today! Shocking,no? I'm creating the topic as obviously many people have played Civ 2 (nearly a million in the fanbase) and would like to play it since it still is actually better than 99% of the current strategy games for the Android market. Theres some really great info in this post as far as that goes, especially the bit about the game.gog files mentioned earlier, opens up a whole lot more of potential actually, once you figure that part out, and it really isn't hard.I hardly expected it to be possible, but here is a general method by which any android capable tablet (even my old Nook HD which uses the oldest obsolete OS ice cream sandwich) can run Civ 2. The autoexec file is where it gets everyone. I had alot of problems with Moo2 and tablets previous, my galaxy tab a 2017 model handled it really really well, i had a 2016 previous that didn't.Īctually Moo seems to be one of the smoother running games on dosbox that i have seen, now.

It manages to load a basic save perfectly fine (the save was created on my PC and then transferred over) so it appears to only be an issue for saving the game.Īny ideas what's wrong? One thing I learned today, if you do this on a Galaxy Tab A (2017) and put it on the main storage area it does save correctly and continues as well, but if you try to put it on a sdcard it won't run and crashes at save. However, when it comes to saving a game it causes the whole thing to crash.
I've successfully installed and can run MOO2 on DosBox Turbo on my HTC One M8, no problem. Apologies about bumping up this post, but I'm struggling to get this issue resolved.
