Testing level via DOSbox - Bad quality

Post by SavleCZ »

Hi,
When I want to test my custom level by classic way, it doesn't work because of 64bit Windows (or whatever, I don't undestand that), so I have to use DOSbox to playing, but when I do that, the game is only black and white and in horrible resolution, it's almost impossible to play. However, if I play PoP via DOSbox normally, not in RoomShaker, it works nicely. I also tried configuring DOSbox setting, but nothing works. Do you have any ideas how to fix that ? Thanks

That's true, 64-bit Windows can't run DOS programs.

Does it look like this? -> http://popuw.com/images/prince_h1.png
If it does, then you probably (accidentally) selected Hercules graphics (HGA).
In RoomShaker, select File -> RoomShaker Setup -> (DosBox) Configure, and make sure that VGA is selected.
