    To solve this, you can use dxwnd to hide titlebar from keeperfx window
    I will give it a try, but they are really few pixel of black bar I can go with it!

    I managed to record in OBS studio with the screen capture method.
    However, the aspect ratio is bad, and the image is stretched to fit in 16/9 format instead of 4/3.
    I tried to resize the canvas but I ended with a black video.
    I don't know exactly how to fix this.

    Anyone tried to record with DosBox ?

    add this in dosbox cfg:


    1) Easiest way:

    aspect=true
    output=opengl


    2) Harder way (if easiest doesn't work):

    fullresolution=1600x1200
    #please type your desktop resolution
    #if problem still exists - try to use 4:3 resolution for fullcreeen (your monitor should support it)
    #so please google your monitor model and resolutions it can support, and select highest 4:3 from there (but better to use your desktop resolution, I bet it's possible to configure dosbox for add black pillarboxes for DK)

    windowresolution=1280x960
    #please type your windowed resolution

    output=opengl

    aspect=false
    scaler=normal2x

    Anyone tried to record with DosBox ?
    I tried to record both in doxbox and in keeperfx, but - I only use windowed mode (I don't play any game in fullscreen) and only use game capture mode for dosbox (which has "output = opengl" option in cfg) and only use window capture mode for keeper fx

    Results:


    DosBox:

    Example with bad cfg (ini) settings (a lot of lags in game): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXnA...e_polymer=true

    Example with good cfg (ini) settings from gog (no lags in game): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRXj...e_polymer=true


    KeeperFX: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...e_polymer=true

    If you have any questions, ask please.


    For now - what I have got:


    In DosBox - you need:

    1) Good cfg (ini) settings for correct performance without lags (you can find them in gog version or ask me to upload cfg)

    2) OpenGL renderer ("output = opengl" in DosBox cfg). Please note, that gog version does not have OpenGL turned on, so you need to do this manually (or ask me for cfg)

    OpenGL is required to make game capture of obs possible


    In KeeperFX I used DxWND software to run it in window (launched DxWND from administrator) and used window capture in OBS (launched OBS from administrator). Please read this thread from the very beginning, because I told a lot of information about OBS and KeeperFX settings, maybe they will be helpful for you

    3) Also, could you please go to windows display settings and give me screenshot with list of all resolutions you can set for your desktop? Or just type them in text here. I want to know, what is the highest 4:3 resolution your laptop can support

    Ok, please try next doxbox settings:

    fullresolution=1400x1050

    windowresolution=1400x1050

    output=opengl

    aspect=false
    scaler=normal2x


    Does it works, when you play in fullscreen?

    Here is what happens with DxWnd, as soon as I touch my mouse
    I also still have to do some size adjustments



    In DosBox it is a speed problem, I'm trying to fix this another day.

    Whic exact speed problem? You mean game speed is too fast? Then use ctrl+F11 ctrl+F12 to slowdown

    update, it's now working great with Dosbox after some mouse sensitivity tweaking. OBS does the job
    DxWnd, still has mouse issue, even with your config file.
    I'm investigating
