Resolution problem in Dark Forces (GOG)

[GLTh3Pr0]

By default the game made me use a VERY low resolution and I could hardly see the enemies from far away, so in the dosbox_DF.conf I set "fullresolution=1920x1080".

The problem is that the screen became very small with very large black borders. I tried in 1024x720 too but it just made the borders smaller.

It's also worth noting that using any scaler aside of "2xsai" (that sucks in my opinion) makes the DOS emulator crash.

If I'm not wrong the Steam version (I tried it time ago thanks to the "steam family") automatically supported high resolutions like these ones. I hope some of you know a fix for this issue. Thanks in advice!

Have you ever considered using Dark Forces XL? Resolution is no problem in that version of DF. It may work for the GOG version if you follow the instructions carefully.

I may give it a try, thanks!

I can confirm Dark XL is much better!

aside from having quite a few bugs, including one in the final level that made the game incompletable, and the thermal alt fire acting the same as primary fire, its pretty good looking
