After watching the two videos by @KennyPowers , I was just wondering if there would be a way to make the background dead space (all four sides, outside the game area) be black rather than white?

I must admit that I've been so busy lately, I've not had time to try it out myself yet, but I've been following this thread and the work done on this game is incredible. Bravo, @MacOfAllTrades !
Making it black would be good — actually - the border *is supposed to be black*! But yes somehow it’s rendering as white on @KennyPowers ’s screen which is very odd.
Similarly strange, I see on your video @KennyPowers that the HUD (ammo/weapons/keys bar) the background is showing up garbled in some way. Very strange.

This is a screenshot of 256 grays mode on my Basilisk II:

Something is def up. I’ve no idea if it’s due to your (sweet sweet) upgrades somehow (??).

Could have something to do with those. I also see that 7.5 is listed as the minimum OS version, and like I said in my previous post, I'm running 7.1. Until I cranked the CRT brightness, the game content and the border were all very, very dark...too dark to see much of anything. Other grayscale content looked fine at the more reasonable mid-range brightness setting I usually leave the CRT at.
