Am i missing something or does anyone else have a problem generating a conf file. The file is created but there is nothing inside of it.

Sorry about the relevance of the topic. my fault. Why did you remove the VESA support kronuz?

Also, is there anyway to write dosbox to utilize ram? I mean more than the standard. I know CPU cycles are important and ram is very unimportant in comparison but i have 1 gb of ram and i wonder if it would be possible to optimize dosbox to use this? This isn't a request, it's just a question. 😀

"not that powerful?" HA. I can get 2 fps in Half Life 2 with the settings turned all the way down. BEAT THAT!! *sarcasm* heehe

Do you think i could pull of OpenGL HQ with my 852/855GME chipset? It's an intel integrated

I've give a little bit of an answer. You cannot just add them to the EXE. You need to recompile the program using the source code and add in that patch.

Very nice. So in theory, you could take a game in 320x200 like JR and scale it to look like it's in an ultra high rez if you did hq24x? Ooo...here is a thought...do the current scalers support SLI? That might help with really high HQ settings?

So then what is the point of using OpenGL-HQ if hq2x does the same? To offload the processing from the CPU onto the GPU?

well dang. i've got a 852/855 Intel POS graphics "accelerator." Hopefully, once i can use this new patch, i'll be able to use hq2x

what makes hq2x so cpu intensive? Also, what kind of comp does it require? Dual 3.6Ghz Pentium Ds with HT? (If they even make that)

Ok. somebody put that patch into a CVS build. i can barely even run hq2x. I'm running a 1.2 Ghz IBM thin 'n light so it's not the fastest. But i will say however that it did look great Also, what do those numbers mean and why are the "old" numbers higher than the "new" numbers?

wait a sec. i just thought of something. I think i figured out why it doesn't look good. Could it be because when the Devs originally created these games, they didn't draw the models to be rendered by such a strong filter so they didn't add an extrordinary amount of detail to the model. Thoughts? …

these are examples of each. can you tell the difference? It looks to me like advmame3x antialiases the picture. Neo, could that be explained by the blurring you mentioned?

JR is supposed to look cartoonish but this is strange. the cartoonish look is weird. I tried taking a screenshot of it but when i open up the png, it looks normal. I wish they would remake those 2 games for XP. That would rock!

I wonder if per chance you could fix some problems in ST JR and St 25th. Whenever a scaler other than normal2x is on, the graphics become exceptionally cartoony. I'm not sure if anyone aside from me has had this problem but maybe someone knows what might cause a problem like this and how to fix it …

This seems incredible. I don't mean to rain on your parade but with all these advantages, is there a downside or is this really well optimized code?

oh i know. I've used AEP and Gulikoza's. I just would like to try one of those other builds with the smart update to see if it malfunctions then too

Oh gotcha. I'd try it out on other builds but i haven't the foggiest idea how to compile 🙁 heehee thanks DF Jason

the Smart Screen update feature doesn't seem to work well for ST JR and ST 25th. The screen will not display any text windows when it is set to true. for instance, in order to exit from the game, i have to guess how many key presses i have to make because i cant see the Kirk bridge menu. Perhaps i …

ykhwong should put this diff in his cvs build. These numbers are outstanding
