Running "Crusader: No Remorse" from Steam

[DarklordKyo]

As the title suggests, anyone know a way to run Crusader: No Remorse through Steam? (in case it comes up, I tried adding it as a non-steam game, and all I got was a raw listing for Dosbox). If it helps, my copy is the GoG release.

I read the title as there being a game called Running Crusader which Steam has no remorse about. I wonder if steam forums have anything about dosbox compatibility.

Attempted to fix by adding quotes to the title. Also, the problem isn't dosbox, the problem is that it won't load the game like it would a raw gog launch (even if I use a shortcut).

I think the issue is that a DOSBox game shortcut actually has a bunch of paramaters added to it to point to the game you want - if you just copy the shortcut to Steam, you'd get...well, a stortcut to DOSBox - without the parameters, it'd only point to the main program.

I double checked by googling and seems that this is indeed the case [http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/156357/add-gog-dosbox-games-to-steam/167533#167533]. Follow that and it should work.

I got this game on GOG.com and I think they use DOSBox with their version of the game as well.
Don't quote me on that mind, I literally played the game once then deleted because OH GOD EARLY 90s CONTROLS ARE WEIRD! X.X

It worked, you're awesome.

Super weird but to be honest I do enjoy those games quite a lot, don't know why but those awkward controls give them a special kind of charm.

Honestly, the controls are apparently a bit weird by those standards. That said, they allow you to essentially play an action movie protagonist when you get used to them.
