I don't know about GOG, but Steam can take screenshots from ddraw output only, whereas my patch currently works with surface. It can be extended for ddraw but I am not yet working on that.

Aren't screenshots and video captured in the game's orginal resolution and aspect ratio anyway? At least if you use the built-in capturing (Ctrl+F5, Ctrl+Alt+F5)?

Not ddraw, but only opengl or direct3d (some games has optional dosbox ykhwong build).
But i found the way to upload custom screenshots (from dosbox capture folder), its not very convenient, but it works 😀
http://steamcommunity.com/id/KainXVIII/screen … &view=imagewall here is my gallery from Harvester, some screenshots from ykhwong build, some from latest svn of dosbox with pixel-perfect scaling, you can tell the difference 😀 Also you can see, that fmv movies screenshots (which are 320x200) not scaled properly, as mentioned by Yesterplay80

Also i don't think that GoG or Steam will update their games to new dosbox UNTIL it updates itself to new version (ie 0.75)

I guess so, but i'm not 100% sure.

lightmaster, I misremembered about the screenshots. You are correct. Edit: If I shall be extending my patch, I shall make it orthogonal to output type, so that it shall work with any output.

Np Ant_22, Bravos 'n' claps for your work!!

Thank you kindly!

I have just uploaded the alpha 9 version of the patch, which changes the defaults as discussed. To test it, delete the configuration file before running the patched version. Then invoke

1config -wc

from within DOSBox prompt to generate a fresh config with the new defaults.

Enhanced build is updated with your alpha 9 patch.

Thanks a lot—let us see whether the new defaults work for everybody.

They don't work here, I always get the old defaults when creating a new conf file (fullresolution=original, output=surface).

Btw.:

const char* outputs[] = {
- "surface", "overlay",
+ "surface", "surfacepp", "surfacenp", "surfacenb", "surface",

I think that's one "surface" to much and one "overlay" missing there. 😉

Yesterplay80, did you remove the old config file before running the patched version?

Yes, I did.

I have justed it with your build, and it worked for me, generating a correct config file. I used the archive named DOSBox SVN r4000 enhanced.7z

It is probably my bludner. I will check it in the evening. That should not prevent DOSBox from generating the config file with new defaults.

Huh? It worked here now, too. Maybe I accidently used an older DOSBox.exe. Sorry! I updated my build again, it now shows "overlay" instead of the second "surface" again in the conf.

Fixed in alpha 10.
