Hi all!

I've recently begun my quest to display dos games on my crt monitor with dosbox as "authentic" as possible. 😵

I have a question regarding doublescanning for dos games. (320x200)
Since most vga monitors from the 90s couldn't display 200p images,
were dos games from that era displayed in 640x400 through doublescanning back in the day? 😐

Thx in advance!

Yes. On common shadowmask screens you couldn't really tell as easily though. More modern CRT monitors (i.e. with OSDs) will even report 320x200 as 640x400
