"Good" or "Bad" are not appropriate terms in this case - that should be something like "has many features" or "has not so many features". Ykhwong's builds, btw, had some serious stability problems and bugs in the last few versions he released - i wouldn't call that "good" (no offense meant - i used his build and liked it very much, but it's a fact that the last versions were quite buggy). I've switched to Gulizoka's build (AFAIK, he's the author of D3D output anyway, so i presume his builds should be the "real" ones), and i'm quite happy with it. Having certain patches included in the main DOSBox build would be quite convenient, of course. But i understand that DOSBox is a multi-platform programm, so including any Windows-specific features like the D3D output won't be high priority for the devs, i believe. We should either motivate the patch authors (especially Gulizoka, whose build is now de-facto the most advanced build for the Windows platform) to continue relasing builds in the future (maybe more frequently, ahem... (; ), or create an own environment for building from the sources.
I think AEP is using something like an automatic building process to create the builds. Maybe something similar could be done with Gulizoka's build? It would be great to have the features from Gulizoka's build, "on top" of the latest DOSBox source (bugfixes, etc.).
