I've been a long time Mini vMac user and found Basilisk II rather shocking because the default Display settings, unlike Mini vMac, don't play nice with Retina displays at all. It looks very fuzzy and bothersome. Why the resolution isn't set to Nearest Neighbor by default is something I simply cannot understand. Even so, I finally found that the fix is tied to editing that hidden preference file (which I personally wish was not hidden). That is described here:

Specifically, adding the following two lines to the preference file makes a world of difference:
Code: Select all
scale_nearest true
mag_rate 2
What I have done for now is to LOCK the .basilisk_ii_prefs file. But that of course prevents editing until I unlock it. It's all very fiddly, so if this issue can be fixed, that would be very much appreciated. And if there are other workarounds for the problem I described, please let me know.
