简介
D-Fend Reloaded是 DosBox 的一个前端工具,是採用 GPL 协定的自由软体,可对游戏进行管理、配置等操作,功能十分强大。D-Fend Reloaded可为 DOS 游戏生成 DOSBox 配置,还支持ScummVM(同样是另外一款模拟器)。众所周知 DOSBox 採用文本方式配置,参数众多,普通用户要为一个 DOS 游戏编写恰当配置不是一件容易的事,于是就有一些图形前端工具来辅助完成这个任务,而 D-Fend 曾经是出色图形前端之一(免费软体,闭源),后来停止开发,有个德国程式设计师表示很失望很受伤很不爽,于是自己重新实现一个,就是今天介绍的 D-Fend Reloaded,D-Fend 重装上阵。经历差不多三年时间,功能逐渐丰富,超越 D-Fend。目前最新的版本号为1.3.1。
主要功能
管理DosBox配置:有人性化的嚮导,填表就行啦,非常简单,不用输命令,还支持开发中的DosBox功能,0.4版后添加更多的预设模板。
游戏管理:游戏分类管理,如果很多Dos游戏,不同游戏可以用不同配置。同时也支持windows、QuickBASIC、ScummVM、超任等模拟器游戏的管理。
游戏截图,音频管理:这是为游戏添加附加信息,可用快捷键为游戏自动录音,录像,截图。
游戏作弊:修改游戏存档,在游戏里搜寻地址等。
建立捷径:这样在桌面双击图示就能直接进游戏了。
生成安装包:指把Dosbox和配置档案跟游戏一起打包,方便分享,比你更懒不用D-Fend Reloaded的人就不用重新配置Dosbox了。如果你觉得用模拟器还是不爽,还可以帮你创建引导的磁碟映像,还有一个类似 Linux 那样的软体包管理器,游戏下载安装配置运行一条龙服务。
镜像製作:软碟,硬碟,光碟都可以。
多用户配置:可以选择把游戏配置储存到系统用户目录(多用户使用不干扰),还是软体根目录(USB便携)。
当然,D-Fend Reloade还有非常多的功能等着你去发现,如压缩格式支持、原始映像安装等功能,请参阅参考资料3。
下载安装
D-Fend Reloade 的官方下载页面(目前已无法访问,可搜寻软体名或到参考资料页下载)提供多种安装包,一般推荐使用集成 DOSBox 的自动安装程式,也有直接解压可用的 zip 包,如果你喜欢手动配置,可以下载最小化的压缩档,只包含 D-Fend Reloaded 本身,不带 DOSBox 和 FreeDOS 工具。也有一些无着作权问题的 DOS 游戏打包下载。
