This is my first script. I haven`t been able to create the full size icon properly. Other than that, the script works  fine, I've tested with Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04.

Hi kanito8a,

Cool, I have this game (played it a long time ago), but didn't have time to write a script for it ;)

Ok, let's start with script review, most of the script is good,, there's not much to say:

POL_Install_DosboxDrive

Don't know in what old script you found this statement, but it's totally obsolete for new DOSBox support.

Admittedly it's for now only documented in a hidden place.

imgmount d "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/GOG Games/$INSTALL_DIR/$GAME_DIR/Anvil.dat" -t iso -fs iso

$GAME_DIR is never defined in your script

# DOSBOX CONFIG
cat <<_EOFCFG_ >> "$WINEPREFIX/playonlinux_dos.cfg"
...

Since you're using imgmount, manual_mount=true should be used in playonlinux_dos.cfg (and that will make imgmount -u unnecessary)

# CONVERT AND COPY ICON
convert "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/GOG Games/$INSTALL_DIR/$GAME_DIR/gfw_high.ico" "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/GOG Games/$INSTALL_DIR/$GAME_DIR/gfw.png"
 
cp "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/GOG Games/$INSTALL_DIR/$GAME_DIR/gfw-5.png" "$REPERTOIRE/icones/32/$SHORTCUT_NAME"

Computing icons in script is depreciated, those days the recommended way is to get icons from the server (that's what the third parameter from POL_Shortcut is for); They're needed for repository lists anyway.

In my other scripts I didn't standardize on using gog.com's round icons, maybe all icons could be derived from your "top" gfx? I'm not sure Anvil of Dawn ever had any "official" icon...

Thanks for the quick response. 

I've changed the script in the first post, with your suggestions. My only doubt is about the game icon. I don't know how to get the icon from the server sad. I've been trying to see how it's done for other old games like Dragonshpere, but I can't find how to do it.

As I said, it's the point of the 3rd parameter of POL_Shortcut; As soon as it's not an empty string, the script will try to fetch the icon from http://repository.playonlinux.com/icones/<3rd parameter>

So all what's needed is to upload the icon in the right place on the server, since it's not automated yet it just requires some maintainer help to upload it...

OK, now I inderstand. I've uploaded to the first post the full size icon for the game. The script already uses the third parameter of POL_Shortcut, so I think it should work ok.

Thanks for the help!
