Can you play Daggerfall on the Anbernic RG35XXSP?

I’ve got muOS installed on my SD card.  I’ve managed to get the game to run in the DOSBOX emulator but I cannot figure out how to map the controls.  Basically a question of running a KBAM scheme on a PS1 controller.  I want to know if it’s actually possible.  I’ve tried using various configs or messing around with the in game controls and the emulator controls in the muOS settings (like mapping L3 to L2 so I could bring up the keyboard in the command console), but no major breakthroughs.  Maybe I missed something.

I thought about maybe picking up a CRKD controller with joysticks since the SP has Bluetooth but that’d be kind of insane getting a separate controller for that small of a screen.  

Another option, if mapping the controls is actually possible, is to figure out which controls aren’t necessary, ergo I could navigate to them as needed via other menu options or such. 

Does anyone have any suggestions?  

& maybe if we pull this off we can try running Undercroft by formerly RakeInGrass on the system next!

Dunno your device, but when I tried some MS-DOS game on the Vita, it was kinda miserable. I had to keep rotating the keyboard keys set to the controllers every 15 or so minutes, since it used a lot of keyboard inputs.

On a small tangent on fitting more commands than your controller has keys for, even controllers with inbuilt macros like that official Saturn-styled USB controller from a few years back can be annoying to use, since you have to memorize the macros commands, hope they don't conflict with anything, and be as fast as the game expects.

    Yeah if I have to manually remap keys every time from the settings, that’s a no go. I’m hoping there’s some way to have a quick access wheel or alternate control map switch or something
