Dungeon Master II on DOSBox on VMware
I've recently been testing some stuff on my VM, and decided to try the open-source DOSBox 0.63.
DOSBox works perfectly on VMware Server, with great performance. But I wanted to try something a little more complex, so I'd set up the old, popular Dungeon Master II on DOSBox to test things. First things first, the sound and video worked flawlessly. But DOSBox didn't like VMware Server's mouse drivers, so instead of displaying the custom cursor it should have, and letting me freely move the mouse anywhere, it displayed a huge Windows cursor when the mouse was active in DOSBox, and only let me move the cursor round the inside of the window, and not into the centre, or anywhere else inside it.
