The "/g" command line switch helps but it won't solve entirely the problem around the CGA 8x8 ROM font. It should suffice in most cases though.
Please elaborate... Is that related to BP or generally with hardware compatibility?
BP's switch description lists "/g" as having the following effect:
"skip delete BIOS CGA-font 8x8 (increase size of modul.tmp)".
It is related to BIOS Patcher, you can test the programs with the original non-patched BIOS (prior running the BIOS Patcher utility to make sure) for verification.
So are you saying that it is still in fact modifying the module in some way that interferes with 8x8 support?
Yes, I can confirm that with StarMines.
