Im trying to get debug mode to work in homm2.
it says you have to add /nwc to the command line when starting homm2.exe. Though the shortcut starts gogwrap.exe to start the game? any way around this?

Did you try editing configuration files?
In files dosboxhomm2.conf or dosboxhomm2_client.conf you have following text in the end of the file:

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
@ECHO OFF
mount C "."
imgmount d ".\homm2.inst" -t iso -fs iso
c:
cls
heroes2.exe
exit

Try attaching the command there.

unfortunately I've tried that as well and haven't had any luck. I've found another thread with people having the same issue too. Does anyone know how to get the debug mode working for the dosbox?

Add it with quotations around

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
@ECHO OFF
mount C "."
imgmount d ".\homm2.inst" -t iso -fs iso
c:
cls
"heroes2.exe /nwc"
exit

I haven't tried this, but it should work

It won't for a simply reason. Cheat menu is a special menu item if H2 is played in a windows. DOS games cannot be played in a separate Window.
Having DOSBox as a window is not the same.

In case anyone is stumbling onto this. GoG now offers the Windows version as an optional download. Once you install this, add the /NWC (Like this: "C:\Heroes of Might and Magic 2 (Win)\HEROES2W.EXE" /NWC) to the shortcut like you normally would and then press F4 in game to switch to windowed mode.

***COLOR ISSUE WITH X64***
Pressing F4 and running in windowed mode ALSO fixes color and resolution issues of running in x64 systems. I only have Windows 7 so I am unable to test Windows 8/8.1

You beauty! It wouldn't let me rename the .exe before, kept telling me there were invalid characters. Editing the shortcut like you suggested worked a treat, thanks!
