So I spoke to one of the main developers of DOSBox today, and he said the best thing for game compatibility is always to keep the CDs themselves in a bin/cue format, and have DOSBox mount the images directly, rather than mounting an 'emulated' CD drive that has for example an MDS of a game mounted.

I just figured I'd post this here for people that do their own backups of their DOS games like myself.

So in short terms: Qbix recommends 1. making the CD copies in .bin/.cue rather than other formats

2. Mounting the CD copies directly, rather than using daemon tools to mount the copies at drive F:, then in DOSBox mounting drive F: as a CD-ROM drive "D:"

Sorry if this is the wrong part of the forum but since Qbix told me that this might fix compatibility problems with some DOS games, I figured it could be relevant to this part of the forum.

Hope someone finds some use for these tips.
