I felt it'd be wise to bump this topic rather than make a new one. Playing Witchaven in DOSBox works like a charm for the most part with one exception. Using SVGA (640x480) causes the screen scale to stretch beyond proportion, in short the HUD can't be seen. Whilist 320x200 serves me well i'm curious to know if this problem can be solved.

This happens on the demo of Witchaven, i've yet to get my claws on the full version.
