Alternatively you can play on a big monitor or tv without scrolling.
You don't even need 4K. 1920x1080 (HD) is enough for this game.

Thanks a lot! I have just started testing and got stuck 😉 The Dune II via Dosbox Staging works fully ok with Roland SC55 (via Coremidi). However, in Dune Dynasty I cannot get any music from my Roland. I have checked all the settings, but always the music plays via computer speakers and not via Roland SC55 (connected to Mac via Roland Midi-USB interface).

Do you maybe know what I need to put in CFG file?

unfortunately i don't think there are any config options, that could help you here. i don't know much about MIDI on macOS, but it seems there are 2 interfaces regarding MIDI on mac: Core Audio and Core Midi. both are supported by Dosbox, but Dune Dynasty only supports Core Audio, and not Core Midi. maybe there is a way to tell Core Audio to use an external MIDI device instead of the built-in by default (e.g. by setting a default audio device)? but maybe Core Midi is required to do that, in which case i believe there is unfortunately no way to accomplish with Dynasty, what you are trying to do.

Hey. I just wanted to say - I love your sourceport, great work and thank you!

I have one question - would it possible to release a DOS port? Playing it on real period correct hardware would be amazing!

Thank you! 😊 David (the original Dune Dynasty dev) and the OpenDune devs deserve 99.9% of the praise though.

Unfortunately that's not really possible, since Allegro 5 (the library used by Dune Dynasty) does not support DOS.
