[BG] Modding plaques with britannian runes issue

Hi,

ok, I leave here two screenshots. Same runes, different behaviour.

DOS Screenshot

EXULT Screenshot (800x600, SCALEx2)

In the spanish translation I'm doing, I've made a bit large the plaques (Wood one and gold one, I left the tombs as they are). Maybe they are 10-20px more long than previously.

As you can see, in DOS they have very good result. I've used "Farmer's Market" plaque as example in both cases. In Spanish is "Mercado del Granjero".

In Exult, i'm seeing two issues.

a.) First, the plaque is not adjusting right on the screen AND the letters are not well centered in the middle of the plaque. They seems to justify a bit more to the right.

b.) As you can see, runic letters are nos viewed exactly as they are seen in DOS versiĆ³n.

In this case, b.) is not a problem for me, I've seen that doing SErpent isle translation, but in that game I had not modified its plaques.

The problem (or bad visualization) comes with the point a.).

What do you think?

Don't use cheating resolutions ;)

Seriously it may really have to do with the not original res.
And it may need fixing but someone needs to find that code...

I've tried 640x480 with Game area at 320x200, Point x1 or Point x2, Fill Quality: Point; Fill Mode: Fill. I think there is no lower resolution. Same issue.

How can I use a non-cheating resolution? I don't know if it is possible to play like in DOS mode (although pixelated). I like to play this game with this mode.

Game area set to 320x200 is the correct resolution ;)
