But you can try to check DOSBox settings, "output" in particular. Maybe it will give you some difference, but I cannot guarantee anything. Also, as already was suggested here, try to tune monitor - CRT ones usually remembers individual settings for every mode (resolution+frequency). |

Thanks, people.
Yeah, I should've mentioned my CRT (which is a late 1990's chunky AOC model) always has its analog brightness at max, no matter what. I just think we can be too demanding of old systems. I hope the brightness change in Dosbox doesn't happen in modern systems or I'll be thoroughly disappointed. I don't see that change when I use other emulators (well, not with Gens, and I'm talking of my old CRT again). It's very head-scratching, that problem. But really, the best solution (for an old CRT) is to config Dosbox to current resolution: you get the clearest results, and in fact I think I should have used this in the past, because it all looks better than ever, now. It almost feels like discovering SVGA over VGA. I'm surely exaggerating, but it's like I wiped-clean an old dusty monitor after I do this. Cheers! |
