Cheat engine and save states for DOS games? #4722

Open lovrenco opened 10 months ago

Question

Hello, I wonder if there is a way to integrate some sort of cheat engine for DOS games. Save state functionality would be great too. As you know, people who play these games are mostly 40+ and there is not so much time to invest in gaming as back in the day. This would help many to finish some games that they could not previously.

Please consider it. For example, Winuae for the Amiga have save states functionality, and you can have cheat enfine by loading ActionReplay ROM for example.

Have you checked that no similar question(s) exist?

There is already save state support, although it has its issues (it may or may-not work, depending on the game).

For cheating, there is already an open issue: https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/issues/3214
