Changelog
Does now support a few chosen opengl shaders even without having any files in the Shader folder (Nearest neighbor, Bilinear, Bicubic, Lanczos, xBR-lv2)
Added partial support for Captain Claw DVD movies (No upscaling support yet)
Added a preset for NOX (CD Version)
Fixed performance issues with EV Nova on windows
cnc-ddraw config can now disable GameUX on Win 7 (Prevents a bug where the game doesn't start properly and runs in the background)
Anti-aliased fonts are now disabled by default for small fonts (ddraw.ini -> anti_aliased_fonts_min_size=13)
Added new .ini setting "min_font_size=" to increase the size of small unreadable fonts
Fixed a bug where some resolutions were not displayed in the in-game list on high refresh rate monitors
Fixed a bug in cnc-ddraw config where the names of the hotkeys were displayed in the wrong language
Fixed a bug where some games could randomly freeze while playing a movie
Added experimental downscaling support (can now run games at high resolutions such as 4k even if the monitor doesn't support 4k)
Note: To use the new downscaling feature cnc-ddraw must be set to either Fullscreen, Fullscreen Upscaled, or Borderless. Just start the game using a high resolution (the limit is 16k currently), and cnc-ddraw will automatically enable downscaling support. If the game doesn't have a way to force a custom resolution, then use the "custom_width" and "custom_height" .ini settings to inject any resolution you want into the game's resolution list and then just select it in-game.
Example:
custom_width=3840
custom_height=2160
