Umm, geniuses this game works fine without dosbox. IOt works as it did back in the day on windows xp + service pack 2.

So how do I take screenshots with the game as RAW?

Of course he knows what fraps is -- how do you guys not understand that Andhaira is a troll? Not all the time, admittedly, but often.

Ok I installed and tried fraps but it doesn't work. At least not with xeen.

Any other bright ideas?

Ok I finally gave in and tried dosbox. It works,but there are two issues:

1)The game runs slowly. Whats the command to increase framerate in dosbox?

2)The screen captures are 320X480. How to increase them to at least 640?

thanks!

I'm probably wasting my breath, but Dosbox... so the game plays without it, so what? Run it with dosbox and get screenshots that way.

Edit: Lol, simultaneous posts. Anyway, I'm not doing your work for you again , everything you want to know is in Dosbox's readme.

The screen captures are the size of the window. There's no way to increase them short of using a scaler. Play around with scalers. This is easier if you use a dosbox front-end.

CTRL+F7 increases frameskip (avoid this), CTRL+F11 makes the emulated computer run faster. (this is from memory, bite me if it's wrong. Dosbox has a readme; read it.
