EDIT: I found an .iso file of the game. However, it keeps telling me the game's data is too much to fit into the amount of space I set. Even setting it's tracks to 1024 does nothing. What do I do? ISO can be found here: http://easternmindtongnou.tumblr.com/howto I want to do a TAS Eastern Mind: The Lost Souls of Tong-Nou, but the problem is my emulation is of a DOSBox running Windows 3.1; no clue how you would make the game put into a TASable form. (here was an old link, but now that we have an .iso...) Can I even get this game to be set up for a TAS?

DOSBox isn't a rerecordind emulator (I don't think it even have a slowdown function), so you should use another DOS emulator (JPC-RR I guess? I'm not an expert at all)
I problably made mistakes, sorry for my bad English, I'm French :v

I guess my main question here would be if I could get the game to run on a DOS emulator that even HAS slowdown; basically moving the game's files to that emulator.

Now, I do not mean to sound like an asshole; but I did already state my main issue is getting the game's data to be on the JPC-RR emulation.

Oh, it's a Windows 3.1 game, apologies. I don't think you can TAS it then.

The odd thing is that since Windows 3.1 can run on DOSBox; a DOS emulator, I think this COULD be replicated via complex as fuck means.

Pardon the bump, but I still want to see if people can try and set up this game for play on a TAS-capable emulator. Now, I do think it's possible. My best idea is that we could use the original disk files as technically, the game's original disk file has a better chance of being emulated properly, and we could go from there. Of course, my download just doesn't have that, and just has it set to run on Windows 3.1/x, and we'd all have to find a working disk file with a proper dump that functions like the DOSBox version, no glitches.
