Hi,

I tried to get some 4x scalers working, but as Wikipedia says: "The AdvMAME4×/Scale4× algorithm is just EPX applied twice to get 4× resolution."

My problem is, that I don't know how to let dosbox run a scaler twice. So I tried to get as near as possible to the advmame4x scaler in one pass.

I know it is not official, but X-wing already looks great with it! 😁

Update: Screenshots attached

Update2: Patch simplified

In order to see what is still missing, I also attach screenshots of Monkey Island 2 with Dosbox scaled by Advinterp4x and ScummVM scaled by Advmame4x (also unofficial).

If my patch could make everything german, I would call it a feature. 😉

The algorithm is quite bloated, because I did find it mostly by messing around. I'm still surprised that it works that good.
Maybe someone has an idea how to simplify it.

I think nobody wants to implement advmame4x in their projects, because shortly after this is done, someone would want advmame8x for his home theater projector to be implemented.
But I like the idea from the wish list, of having a multiplier for the scaler setting:

1# scaler -- Scaler used to enlarge/enhance low resolution modes.
2# Supported are none,normal2x,advmame2x,advmame3x,advinterp2x,interp2x,tv2x.
3
4scaler=advinterp2x 
5multiplier=2

Where the multiplier would be the number of times the scaler is applied.
Is something like this already planed?

I thought that advmame4x was simply 2 times advmame2x applied

Yes, that's true.
But I don't know how to let dosbox apply a scaler 2 times.
So I tried to get as near as possible to the advmame4x.
