IDK if its just me, but the normal one makes the game looks dark, and unclear. The hq scaler is the only one that makes it look like the original game that i remember. I played this game growing up, and the normal scaler looks TERRIBLE compared to the original game. I will try setting it to off and trying hq3x. If you have Aspect = True and use a window size that isn't the same ratio you can get it shrinking the window to a size it thinks is appropriate. Most old dos games are 320x200, so you'd want to scale to a resolution that's the same ratio. I've found certain combinations with ddraw seem to be an exception to this, ddraw + supereagle or ddraw + 2xsai seems to work with whatever window size you want.Īnother issue can be the size of window you're setting, it should be a multiple of the game's original resolution. For example, 2xhq or 2xsai with a 320x200 game will always give you a window size of 640x400 in opengl mode. The high quality scalers (hq, sai, eagle) will completely ignore your window size setting in most output modes. MikeMaximus: I've found DOSBox has always behaved like that with window sizing. I never had this problem before with my dosbox games on gog. I also am unsure why the game is kind of laggy in fullscreen mode. Its like its ignoring my settings with certain changes. Everything else makes the window small also. Also, for the scaling options im only able to use normal3x. The only Graphic modes I can use for windowed is Overlay and ddraw, everything else makes the window much smaller than my set window resolution. It seems the graphic mode/scaling change the resolution of the window instead of leaving it at what you set the window resolution to in the options. I did not have this problem before when I installed it and edited the config file, before the galaxy graphic setup for dosbox. Im unsure why, but either i have to play it in terrible quality in windowed, or kinda laggy in fullscreen. And only Normal 3x makes the window the size I need it. Only Overlay, and ddraw keep the window from being really tiny. Only normal3x or none makes the window the size i need it to be, but the quality is awful.Īfter more fiddling with combinations of Graphic Mode and Scaling options in the graphics settings. But when it loads up the game it goes back to a tiny window. Ok so, the issue is that I cannot use the hq3x instead of the normal3x without the window changing resolution. Maybe this comes from the graphics driver settings directly? In a way it makes the graphics smoother, but I prefer sharper, if blockier, graphics, which overlay seems to offer better. Output=ddraw also works for me, but as you say, it makes the graphics a bit "mushy", as if edge antialiasing is always applied on all the graphics, even if I don't necessarily want it. This is what I use with DOSBox for running the games in a window (my laptop's native resolution is 1600x900, so I have set the DOSBox window resolution to be a bit less than that vertically so that I can see also the window borders 1152x864 is a good 4:3 resolution for me on the 1600x900 desktop resolution). I understood you wanted to run the window in a certain resolution, right? Why then are you using the scaler at all? Shouldn't scaler be set to none, in case you set the window resolution to some specific resolution? And i cant play stonekeep in fullscreen because it seems to slow down dosbox quite a bit also. Magic_Of_Light: Overlay is the only one that i can play in windowed, but only for normal3x, the hq3x makes it much much smaller. Everything else is too small, and fullscreen does not function well or causes the screen to bee off center and cut off.ĭoes anyone have more experience with this that can give me some advice? But that is the only thing i can use in windowed mode and still have a window i can play on. I just want to be able to play in windowed for best performance, and still be able to use settings that make the game look presentable. Overlay is the only one that i can play in windowed, but only for normal3x, the hq3x makes it much much smaller. direct3d works well in windowed, but makes it tiny no matter what i have the window resolution set to. I am having a terrible issue getting this working with the new graphic thing. I used to be able to enter resolutions to get a window that was just right, in the middle i could place the bar at the top of my screen, and the bottom edge would be sitting at the bottom in 4:3 mode, making it easy to alt tab to do other things. But this new integrated graphics setup for galaxy is really throwing me off. I have used alot of dosbox over the years.
