Can someone explain why people hate RetroArch now?
Many emulator devs are alone and not noisy (because hey, real life), MAMEdevs has been vocal because it's a different group of emulator devs. But don't think RA have no impact on other emulators: https://github.com/reicast/reicast-emulator/issues/1928

Good iPad games like Heroes 3?
idos2 is still available via patreon (https://litchie.com/dospad) - and really good as I purchased it when it was available from the appstore, alternatively any dos emulator via altstore - then heroes II... it's by far the best experience you can have on ipad/iphone. Tried many clones and while some are OK, heroes II blows them all away.

DOS emulator
there was idos 2 available, but sadly was pulled out from sale (ofc because of apple) and if you didn't purchase it back then - now you can't. Now the only two ways without jailbreaking are: 1) https://litchie.com/dospad - via patreon the idos2 dev sign up the newest version for you
- iDOS ipa file?
- Mobile Battle Station for some holiday Pascal coding

Looking for iDOS IPA
AFAIK this is the latest IPA available on GitHub: https://github.com/litchie/dospad

Copying files in dospad on iOS?
This seems to be a bug/feature (depending how you look at upgrades breaking existing features). I filed https://github.com/litchie/dospad/issues/139 to track this.

One of my favorite DOS games when I was younger. Now running on my iPad Pro through sideloaded iDOS via AltStore. Loads of fun on a touchscreen and super convenient to play during meetings :)
I’m doing all of this through iDOS (which is just a DOSBox variant compiled for iOS/iPadOS devices). I don’t own an Android tablet, but a quick search shows multiple versions of DOSBox available on the Google Play store you could install on your Android device. Once installed, there is usually a way to drop DOS game files into a folder accessible by DOSBox as a drive mount. You CD to the directory and run the game.

[Question] Any good gaming emulators for iOS 14?
Also for MS-DOS games in general, iDOS is an awesome Dosbox emu for iOS. Supports Bluetooth keyboards and MT32 emulation and a bunch more.
