The program folder will be automatically mounted and unmounted, with the option to stay in the program folder after the program finishes. Quick launch program… Launches a program selected from the file browser to run inside DOSBox-X directly. Press the Esc key three times to exit the editor. Mapper editor: Enters DOSBox-X’s keyboard mapper editor, where you can map different keys for use with the emulated DOS. You will probably be disappointed in how older DOS games scale though, they are mostly raster graphics made for a fixed resolution and will get blocky quick if you upscale them.Configuration tool: Enters the graphical configuration tool for reviewing or changing DOSBox-X settings. Hopefully the game will let you run higher than 320x240 or 648x480. These two settings changed DOSBox to 800圆00 but it wasn’t very pretty:ĭo you know what resolutions your game can run? Try to match the windowresolution to the highest resolution the game will run, if DOSBox isn’t already doing that. You were on the right track with windowresolution but you apparently have to change the output variable to overlay or opengl along with the resolution change. I need it to take up more area on my monitor.) It plays in that very small window just fine, but my eyes can’t pick up the main map details of battles, floods, etc. (If it helps, I’m wanting to play a very old DOS version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. One of the examples showed the output option set to opengl, and when I did that (in conjunction with setting the other two to, for example, 640x480) I got a larger screen, but no command prompt. From what I picked up from the internet, the fullresolution and windowresolution options are what I want to mess with, but whatever I change them to has no effect. I’ve played around with the dosbox-0.74.conf file. OK, so I want the screen to take up more than the 1/8 of my monitor that it currently does. I have determined that this problem is insoluble.

Setting DOSBOX to full screen sends the output to the laptop’s monitor. I’m running a second monitor off my laptop as my only monitor.

I’ve done some poking around and can’t find an answer.
