After building from the latest SDL 1.2 source the 16Bit fullscreen color bug is gone - I´ve attached the libraries copy them into /opt/local/lib if you have macports installed or put them into Wrapper.app/Contents/Resources/lib if you're using my DOSBox wrapper apps what I posted on here earlier.

Thanks for the heads up, need to check this out 😉

Btw, I also applied the openglHQ patch to that build - just fyi.

Will have to try with my own build. I am using the latest SDL 1.2x code for the snapshots so unless a commit passed by unnoticed my snapshot should be fine as well.

UNLESS... The openglhq patch fixes this 😉

okay let me know if it works for you without that patch 🤣...

hmm, the high color GTA is still not working for me even though I have the latest SDL 1.2 hg with the last change from the 1st of December.

Hmm, the reason might be that I'm building the 64bit version against 10.6 SDK for the highest compatibility. Will have to see what happens if I built against 10.9 SDK and min version 10.9...
Not today, though 😀

If it still doesn't work for you here's my build script:

1#!/bin/sh
2export CC='/usr/bin/gcc-4.2 -arch i386' 
3export CXX='/usr/bin/g++-4.2 -arch i386' 
4export GCOV='/usr/bin/gcov-4.2 -arch i386' 
5./autogen.sh
6
7./configure --enable-static --disable-video-x11 --enable-video-cocoa --without-x --prefix=/opt/local
8
9make clean
10make
11make install

as you can see it was built without X11 so that might have been the cause.

I had no time. The without-x11 is not the culprit, my build is also without it 😉

What's your system and xcode version right now? I mainly ask to make sure to build against the same SDK

I'm using XCode 3.1.2 on OSX 10.5.8 with the 10.5 SDK and GCC 4.2.

I'm still affected by this bug, on a i3 iMac with ATI 5670. Despite what they say on this thread it shows even when dosbox is configured not just as vgaonly but even as svga_s3, using stock "Dosbox 0.74 Preferences" file.
Green tint while running as windowed and palette swap if dosbox is configured to run at fullscreen. (and It actually shows on screenshot, too.)
Should I just rebuild it using a newer version of DosBox? or is there any other way to fix this regression?

Hi,

I also had the exact same problem on mac.
Mostly with the exact same game (trucks) that you posted in the screenshot.

Download and install Boxer (always based on dosbox), works perfectly.

Ciao 😉
