Same thing for Shogo.

Also a common thing to do is set the resolution of the game itself lower, and the resolution in dgVoodoo higher. The game resolution determines the size of all UI elements (text included).

I linked you to an explanation of what it is (and how to fix it). It is not a dgVoodoo bug. You also can't play Shogo with nGlide, because nGlide is not a Direct3D wrapper.

FWIW, Windows doesn't use AntiAliased fonts when running in 8bpp display mode. If dgvoodoo2 is faking that display mode then this could be a defect introduced by dgvoodoo2 .

Pretty sure Shogo is 16-bit.
