I have reinstalled several old Sid Meier games and try to get them to run using DOSBOX 0.74 under D-Fend Reloaded.

The original Railroad Tycoon from 1991 works fine.
When using exactly the same settings for Railroad Tycoon Deluxe however it crashes to desktop whenever a graphic would need to be shown (e.g. when building a bridge the game would normally show a picture of a bridge but CTD).

The configuration I use is:

# This DOSBox configuration file was automatically created by D-Fend Reloaded.
# Changes made to this file will NOT be transfered to D-Rend Reloaded profiles list.
# D-Fend Reloaded will delete this file from temp directory on program close.

# Command line used when starting DOSBox:
# -CONF "...\Railroad Tycoon Deluxe.conf" -NOCONSOLE

# Config file for profile "Railroad Tycoon Deluxe"

After trying even more different combinations the change from render:overlay to render:surface seems to work
