GroovyMame Resolutions Question
« on: September 20, 2020, 10:40:48 pm »
I know GM will pick the closest resolution to the original when needed.

Is there anyway to force GM to output the original resolution, or is this a limit of switchres?

GM chooses native resolution if you disable super resolutions,  always your system has this resolution mode line (Windows version)

What is the easiest way to disable super resolutions?

yes, changing resolution to "auto" should do it. But you do need the native modeline for any game, at least in terms of resolution. Switchres can adjust the refresh.

Is there a tutorial on how to create modelines? For example what would the modeline for 304 x 224   look like?
