Dear all :

TITAN(Titus 1989) runs better in DOSBox 0.74 than
in DOSBox 0.73, but there is a small problem.
When the game runs with VGA mode (TITAN /v),
a black line appear after moving the block.

DIGGER(Windmill 1983) shows it's title with
"interlaced" effect in DOSBox 0.73, but shows
whole title "instantly" in DOSBox 0.74 (CGA mode).

TITAN: We'd have to check every line for the wrap condition, that would slow DOSBox down (no idea how much though)

DIGGER: Now it looks as on real hardware. The "interlaced" effect is hidden by the game through the CGA display blanking bit which 0.73 didn't support.

1+1=10

Not every but one of top and bottom line 😉
Maybe you can download the game below to test :

I see. Thanks for your responses.
(But I like 0.73 more ... )
