Carradice: Sounds reasonable. I have come to prefer not to have mixed pixels in my resampling as well.

Wondering now if GOG updates the versions of Dosbox packed with DOS games, and if people here does it on their own, replacing said dosbox files.

Zimerius: Not sure, it does sound a bit like a, uhm titanic , hercules .. lost the right character ...... job

and with all of the previous work which still lies around, i can imagine that at a certain point in time they will choose to use the new dosbox for their latest releases ( though i have a hard time thinking of any worthwile older games that still have to be presented )

It does sound like a fairly simple job to replace dosbox your self with the newer version .. and it does fit the older game scene quite well, to have to tweak and try out certain stuff for yourself

All you have to do is mount the folder containing the DOS gamefiles within Dosbox Daum, or Dosbox ECE, or Dosbox Staging, or some other Dosbox port. It's very easy to do:

That mount command is used by Dosbox or any other forks of Dosbox.

Nah, Sisyphus is the boulder guy. You're thinking of Prometheus with the kidney business.

Ah... well thanks for not letting me fly blindsided into the sun! A day filled with confrontation deserves some relief moments near the end, though i might owe Carradice some excuse for the to friendly approach on my side to his or her reaction...

anyways... it seems like a almost impossible huge job from where i'm standing... not to mention that the people who could be involved with that task could also feel like either Sisyphus or Prometheus
