I think it happens whenever you are looking exactly straight down a corridor. Not sure how dosbox messes it up though.
Out of curiosity, are you using the steam release of wolf3d?

Are you using a custom ROM on your Xperia Play? A few weeks ago, Mysticales pointed out to me that some custom Xperia ROMS assign the 'O' button differently than the stock SONY Rom, which would cause problems with any app relying on the developer docs that Sony published for the Xperia Play.

Thanks for the info! I'll look into the problem and push out a fix for the next release!

I tried Wolf 3d (non-steam release), and I too noticed the graphical glitch upon startup when looking down the hall, that went away after moving the character. Not sure what's causing it, but I'm looking into it.

The UP-Down-Left-Right refer to the arrow keys. I can't remember, but I think in POP1, you cannot use the arrow keys to move the guy (correct me if I'm wrong).
As for mapping arbitrary keys, you can already do that in DosBox Turbo. Upon startup, if a keyboard is detected, you can remap any key on the keyboard to a control function.
Hi again Gene,
Could you tell me where that is? I canīt find the function that supposedly lets you map any key on the keyboard to a specific function...

I tried using the steam dosbox.conf. It completely hosed everything up, so I ended up building one using the built in config menu in Dosbox turbo.
Hi again Gene,
Could you tell me where that is? I canīt find the function that supposedly lets you map any key on the keyboard to a specific function...
Thanks
Sure, in the Settings Menu, its under Button/Key Mapping -> Hard Keyboard Mappings.
Remember, you'll have to have a physical keyboard present at startup to access these settings.

The standard dosbox.conf has lots of options that do apply under Android (SDL scaling options, midi, serial etc). Its best to let DosBox Turbo generate a config file for you, then modify it to suit your needs.

Aah ok, I DO use that option on my HTC Desire Z when I map game controls. However it only lets you map a certain number of keys, not the whole keyboard.
Cheers
in the next dosbox version can you please make more mapping option for the "BACK" button like A-Z letters?
I'll see if I can expand the button mappings for the back button in the next release. Due to the way the BACK button functions, there are some limitations as to how it can be mapped.
First off all: GREAT APP! I've tried another Doxbox Android app or two and this is by far the best. The DosBox Manager is wonderful, it makes running games so easy.
And now a question: I don't have an Xperia Play (so jealous of those who do ) but I figured I would ask a question anyway since the developer seems to frequent this thread.
I have X-wing on my Tablet, a Motorola Xoom, and I'd like to use my Sixaxis controller with it (I also have the Sixaxis app installed). I get to the initial screen that wants me to calibrate the joystick. I do as it asks, moving the joystick into the corners and center of the screen. But once I'm in the pilot registration room, the cursor is very erratic, moving all over the screen.
Is there a certain setting I should pick to fix this? I've tried a few different control options, like onscreen joystick or physical joystick. But I can't seem to get it right.
Hey Guys, I got DBT installed and created a folder on my SD card titled 'DOS' ....
So i put a copy of DUKE3D into the DOS folder.. and everything looked fine.. however when i launch duke3d.exe it gives me error
{ (1307) not enough memory }
I only tried the one game, could it be my copy of DUKE3d. >?
