Hi All,
Currently I'm working on a program that can detect all options that ever could possibly exist, without ever having to look at a conf file, only by selecting the exe. See the attachment. This application is only a GUI for the routine so nothing fancy or anything though. Edit doen't have any scrollbars too, use the keyboard cursor.
Well why make this, as I was develloping D.O.G. i always was wondering of adding CVS build capabilities. But this would require me to write a Profile Editor for every Profile type/DB-Build around. Well, my workaround is a Options detector, "DosBox-COP". This application uses a XML file that contains all options that ever existed in DosBox's history. The current application will cycle through every option in the XML. This makes DosBox blink around the screen though / "for now". Any solutions?
There is also a problem that I encountered during the testing of the program, my first brainstorm was :
-First write the conf file
-Run Dosbox and make it write the conf file.
-Check the conf file.
But as a matter of fact, it just writes back my written value, even if it is false and DosBox commented that it switched to normal2x. The option config get "render scaler" also returned the false value and checking the internal scaler value by typing scaler returned the false value. This can cause problems if you expect the build to support it then do a writeback, see the comments and expect they forgot to add it or something. Well this "problem" kind of took me by surprise. Would be nice to have DosBox just write the default back.
Now for the real question :
Can someone tell me the scalers that I'm missing?
