    I have played many a DOS game via DOSBOX, and it's a perfect experience. ALMOST.
    All that's left is a Cheat software that has cheats for all the games,
    can generate cheats for games, and save them. Anyone know where I can
    get my ideal dos cheat software? It'd really be usefull for stuff like Fallout to disable the ANNOYING TIME LIMIT, and also for RPGs that
    require HEAVY GRINDING. --- SBBSecho 3.20-Win32

    Not sure if there is a master cheat pack app of some sort, but definitively there are titles that benefit from DOSBOX being the host platform.

    Like ASE (All Seeing Eye) addon for Eye of the Beholder and similar apps for initial Might and Magic Series. They do auto mapping for you in separate windows app that you snap to dosbox window. It somehow must attach itself to the DOSBOX process to grab all the info it needs to hack the extra info and sometimes hack back the game (like levels, gold ,items in the MM games).

    I'd rather look on per title basis than one big pack. But it's also interesting idea to get them all together.

    I'd suggest asking EXODOS team on Discord if they were evaluating such idea. It sounds like a topic for that crew to master, eventually!

    Cheaters never win.

    I'm with you on this, occasionally ;) but it also reminds me how asking such questions to ChatGPT will eventually win over asking people.

    Last time I asked it a technical question, it apologized many times and argued it was a dangerous topic and that I need ask an Engineer.

    I happen to be an Engineer. The answer to the question is the sort you find in every book on the subject :-)

    Do you know where I can get it? For some reason I can't find a reliable download anywhere & I really want to give it a shot, but for one reason or another I can't.
