Hi,

I'm playing zool2 using dosbox. Game loads and plays excellently, with one exception: I can't find the "fire" key.

Keyboard configuration is reached by pressing F5 during the game. Unfortunately F5 just adjusts my computer volume like it does when I'm not in dos.

I tried to find the Zool2 file with keyboard prefs in it to modify before loading but I'm a complete novice.

What can be done?
Thanks for reading!

You always could remap the function keys for dosbox.
Start dosbox and press CTRL+F1.

It's all explained in the dosbox readme.
