Sup, guys? I've got a nice idea for those, who prefer playing vanilla at 320x200/35fps on CRT monitor. I guess most of you use the mode 640x400_70Hz, because relatively modern monitors and GPUs do not support lower. Looks good, but not perfect yet, as the scanlines are duplicated. There's an even better way. In DOSBox config set the scaler scan2x instead of normal2x. Now you've got only a single visible scanline per source image row at odd positions and a black one at even positions. Now turn one of the focus adjusters on the line output transformer until you get a nice thick fucking ray so that non-black scanlines occupy most of the area on the screen and play some fucking DooM the way it is meant to played!
