Notes.

Testing out some pixel perfect setup for Eradicator, 90s classic that, till this day, don't have any forks, source-ports, so on. On top of that the only available by default resolution is 320x200.

To get similar setup you need to:

1. Get latest DosBox-X, https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/releases/download/dosbox-x-v2024.10.01/dosbox-x-windows-2024.10.01-setup.exe

2. During installation pick pixel-perfect, the rest doesn't matter much.

3. Open dosbox-x.conf, in my case in E:\Games\Old\DOSBox-X, put there your desktop resolution and such things:

fullscreen = false
fullresolution = 1920x1080
windowresolution = 1920x1080
maximize = true
output = openglpp (must be already set by default)
glshader = pixel_perfect-scanlines.glsl

4. Under [autoexec] add:

imgmount d "E:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\common\Eradicator\CD\ERADICATOR.CUE" -t iso
mount c E:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\common\Eradicator\ERAD
c:
erad
EXIT

5. Run E:\Games\Old\DOSBox-X\dosbox-x.exe.

6. Result you can see in this video. In opposite to keep in mind that not much visible on the screenshots especially, but you might see one in the real game.

Ready to operate .conf file can be found here: https://www.old-games.ru/forum/attachments/dosbox_eradicator-zip.324787/, if you will get lost during setup.

7. To run DosBox-X together with the game in Steam you need to copy its files to E:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\common\Eradicator\dosbox_windows\ and rename dosbox-x.exe to just dosbox.exe. You will also need to rename dosbox-x.conf to dosbox_eradicator.conf, i.e. replace two original files.
