Hi All,

I've got a question about the windowresolution parameter. What are all of the resolutions supported by DOSBox in windowed mode in Windows.

I know the FullResolution parameter is dependant upon the systems graphicscard and its screen. But what is the Windowresolution dependant upon, can it be set to any value?

I need to know this because for now D.O.G. only shows the resolutions that the systems graphicscard can render.

These are the ones already listed.
320x200
320x240
400x300
512x384
640x400
640x480
800x600
1024x768

Thanks in advance,

Erik.

I'm going to refrase my question, is there a resolution I'm missing from the DOS lagacy era?

Erik.

Window resolution is just a hint to dosbox when there's hardware scaling. Dosbox will try to either match the width or height of that resolution when scaling whatever dos resolution it's emulating
