Trying to create monitor presets for KT-2914 (Betson-Kortek) MultiSync
RetroACTIVE:
Toki and golden axe are perfect.
I should not be using magic res anymore. I removed the 1234x entries from ReslList and re-ran VMMaker without 32bbp and with monitor set to d9800
RetroACTIVE:
Many games look great!
V: Phoenix, Scramble, Burger Time
H: Berzerk, Missile Command
Caveman Ninja and the MK series have the same fit problem.
I played with the monitor adjustments and I can adjust pacman to fit but it really compresses the image in other modes. Can't really adjust MK to fit... it severely compresses and distorts the image.
RetroACTIVE:
More experiments...;)
If I run MK with -resolution 399x256@60 it works great because it keeps the refresh rate at 60Hz :dunno
If I run it without the resolution param it appears to set the refresh rate to 54.82Hz
Similar with Caveman Ninja... switchres is choosing 58Hz, when I specify 60Hz it fits perfect!
Calamity:
Does the fit problem with mk have something to do with the one you had before when using magic resolutions or are they different issues?
It would be of help to see both logs of mk with and without forcing 60 Hz. I guess it's making it jump from an interval to another and that will help us start finding your monitor limits.
BTW, mk's real refresh is 54.82 Hz, indeed.

I believe these are the same fit issues regardless of magic resolution at this point.
Yeah I'm not sure what my monitor is doing with the 54.82 Hz refresh rate. Even though that is correct, it certainly appears to be problematic.
I will post a log of each case this evening.
I would love a block diagram or picture of the various pieces of Groovy/VMMaker/SwitchRes/Driver so I can get a better understanding as to what the interfaces are and how modes are determined and how the gmame chooses. I feel a little in the dark and truly hope I'm not coming across as ignorant.
Thanks for all your help!
