Last night following the instructions, I installed the amiga version on my xbox and loved it. However I d love to be able to play a career so would be very interested to learn how to get it set u p using Dosxbox, which I downloaded last night. If anyone could post up instructions I would be very grateful, and if it could include the settings for getting running so nicely as show in Redhairs vid, I would be forever in awe!!!
Many thanks in advance for help that any kind sould might give.

Amiga SWOS on XBox works 100% perfect. But PC SWOS works too, with the help of DOSBox, check this video:

I also made some other videos from my Xbox, check it out: www.sensiblesoccer.de/temp/Xbox_Video/
Very cool!

I don t have the console here at my place, at the moment. But I will check the settings soon and will post it then.
Hey Redhair, that d be great if you tell us how to get PC SWOS running on Dosxbox...config settings etc. A step-by-step for Xbox noobs like myself would be most appreciated!

I ve managed to install SWOS using Dosxbox, just can t get it running as smooth as in your video...I ll have another play around with the screen res and CPU cycles etc.
Also, I noticed in your video that you start the main .exe with a command switch - sws.exe /H - what does the H switch do?
Thanks!

OK, the version I ve used was SWOS ECE, but it should work with 96/97 as well, you just need to change the directory from SWOSECE to SWOS . I ve used the parameter /H for the 16-color version, for less resources. Here are the settings:
Mount CDROM - Yes - E
Machine Type - VGA
Core - Simple
Memory - 8 MB
XMS Enabled - Yes
EMS Enabled - No
Cycles - 6875
..
Frameskip - 0
Mouse - LAnalog
..
Edit Autoexec Lines
c:
cd swosece
sws.exe /H
SBlaster Type - SB16
SBlaster Mixer - Yes
SBlaster OPL - DualOPL2
SBlaster Base - 220
SBlaster IRQ - 7

I ve got the SWOS ECE version as well, so I ll try both.
BTW, do you happen to remember what screen settings you used? (480i, 720 x 576 etc), and 640x480?
