Im new here and I have dosbox turbo for android and dosbox for mac. I want to run Chex Quest 3 and downloaded the dosbox version from this website by Vulture. When I tried to unzip it it says the zip file corrupted. Can someone please reupload the zip file or help me configure the wad so it can run in dosbox for me?
Sorry 'bout that, most of the downloads are broken. See if you can find what you need here: http://gallery.xboltz.net/downloads/ (http://gallery.xboltz.net/downloads/)
The question is, the real CQ3, or the stolen CQ3?
Can CQ3 run on dosbox? It's zdoom...

And anyways, bored, that chex quest 3 does not run via dosbox, i believe. I don't know if any chex quest 3 does. It uses the ZDoom engine, i'd go look at ZDoom and see if theres a port for Mac. As for Android, I believe someone ported CQ/Doom/Hexen/whatever to it at one point... (at least, they made an engine that runs them)
Stolen CQ3 would probably work on dosbox, as it runs with chex.exe. But do any of us recommend CQ3Stolen? No...
But speaking of Android, I'm getting a phone soon, and it would be cool to get CQ on it. (I know Breakfast Trek is being made to do this legally, but...)
There is a mac port of zDoom, go to www.zdoom.org to download it
though I found that it has some latency issues, it shouldn't be significant for chex 3.
Chex3 will not run on iphone (or any phone); the hardware just isn't powerful enough for zDoom. I believe there is some version of Boom that works on smart phones but that is the limit.
I have 3 working with wine on my mac, but i could only get 1 and 2 on android. And I mean the real chex quest 3, not the fake one.
The Real Chex Quest 3 cannot be ran through DOS, and I don't think there are any modifications of the Chex Executable to support this.
Chex3.wad is only compatible with ports that support DECORATE.

May I ask which app you are doing this with? And how you have configured the app to run the wads. (I also need a copy of the wads.)
I got a Galaxy S III sitting here I would love to play Chex Quest on.
