Dear all:

I have an old application named as "Magic Key".
A CGA mode emulator and screen capture software of Hercules card.
It works well in DOSBox 0.70 but 0.72~0.74.
Look the captured images below .

DOSBox 0.70

But in DOSBox 0.72~0.74

Did you try "machine=hercules" in DOSBox.conf?

Yes, I did.

In my opinion, this is not my problem. This post just shows that
the compatiblity of DOSBox running in hercules mode between 0.70
and 0.72~0.74.
Maybe there are bugs in sub-routine(s) about hercules mode.
