Question Tom & Jerry - Cat-astroph - CGA problem

hello

I need a little help

i downloaded this game from your site
Tom & Jerry Cat-astrophe

http://www.abandonia.com/sr/games/66...-astrophe.html

I made this game run on dosbox without problems

here is the thing, I used to play this game back in the day, on CGA screen, so i really wanted to make dosbox make this game run on CGA mode

so i define in the conf file
Code:
machine=cga
when i did it, i got this black screen, with the text mode cursor blinking, looks like the game cant make itselt run on cga

thing is i played it on cga mode, and also on the box of the game it says it can be run on cga



in one of the versions i downloaded, i found a file read.me, inside i found this:

Code:
