Hi!!!
I'm having problems with a game: "Simulador Profesional de Fútbol". It runs fine but the issue that is annoying me is that the colors are not showing correctly. I think it's something related to the dosbox's VGA emulation because if I run the game with JPC (another emulator), the game shows fine. I attach some screencaps...

I'm using Dosbox Daun SVN. But I think it's not important 'cause I remember to have the same problems with previous versions. I've tried the VGA and SVGA modes and nothing changed.

Is it possible to run this game well on dosbox?? maybe using a SVN build or installing a VGA driver??

Thank you in advance. Regards!!

Hi bro:
Daum's broken. Try another SVN.
Cheers

Are you referring to an in-game setting, or to the "machine" setting in DOSBox.conf?

What do you exactly mean by saying "Daum's broken"?? It works well for me... what is the real reason for not using it?

I tried dosbox 0.57, which it's the first version that supports the game, and I got the same results. I don't think next versions change too much.

With PCEm, it surely would work... but it's not what I'm looking for... I'd like to play it in any version of dosbox... if it could be possible, of course!!

For some reason, the correct colors appear if you use the option cputype=386_prefetch.
