That is how I put everything in the file. Its doesn't have an INI icon either.. like the mame.ini file.

It sounds like it's not actually naming it to .ini. Do you have Windows Explorer set to display known file extensions? If not the file you created is probably actually named vector.ini.txt instead of vector.ini.

Ha! That's exactly what it was Encryptor! :lol Soon as I unchecked the setting it worked. Don't know why I didn't think about that. I took some pics to try to compare before and after.. but I found my camera was picking the dull screen really vividly..So I'm just going on record as saying that, those 2 threads posted and the help Ive been given thus far has made a big difference in the vector game play on my tv. My Asteroids ship's fire is completely visible now, as are the stars in Star Wars. Thanks a lot for your help guys! :notworthy:
So moving on.. Ive checked out Groovy Game Gear, and some other sites for my joys/buttons/controller, and am just not sure where to go. What we have decided:
2 joys - 4 and/or 8 way.
22-24 buttons - Only around 4 or 5 will be led lit.
1 Trackball
No spinner for now.. gotta conserve a little bit. Although ill probably bean myself afterward for not getting one. Im concerned about trackball mounting in my mind right now though. I don't really want any bolts coming through the surface.. but want the most available trackball area.
I like this design for a trackball, kind of.. but it doesn't look like it leaves much room to roll.
The Habbler:
I see a lot of fingers smashing into that spinner if the ball was put in that low.

Yeah that's not what I had in mind. Its just an example for the kind of trackball mounting I was looking for, minus everything else.
I am still not 100% sure where to go as far as controls.. GGG has the cheapest Happ Competition sticks for around 9 bucks. But just because its cheap.. doesn't make good. I am going to start measuring the rest of the CP box soon so I can get it finished up.. but id like to get my controls soon, so I can try some test mounting. I got the speaker panel down also.. so I can make a new one to put in an additional speaker.

Also, component video is WAY better than S-video.
