Strange monitor/display problems

Post » Thu Nov 04, 2010 1:19 am

Here's a problem that I've started to have crop up on me. When I'm not playing DF thru DBox, my displays are all properly centered. When I fire the game up in full-screen mode, it will shift things to the left a bit, almost losing the Health bar. I can always use the monitor's menu to move it over to the right but then I have to move it back to the left when I'm done playing. It's a bit annoying; anyone else have this problem?

Edit the DOSBox config file and play with the fullresolution and output settings.

actually, tweaking the config file is a good way to get better performance and visuals on whatever you are playing. i usually just make a copy of the config file, that way is my tweak end up in complete failure, i can just revert to the last know good config.
