| Making Vector games LOOK BETTER ??************* |
| << < (3/3) |
| Lilwolf:
Vector games are the only ones that really look better on a SVGA monitor over an arcade monitor. BUT.. man... when I had my Radeon 9700 on my Elsa monitor and set it to 8x AA, 3d games looked AMAZING! I would LOVE to see someone convert mame vector games to use real OpenGL lines... To allow FSAA to make games at low resolution to look sweet. |

I used WG D9100 monitors in a couple of cabs, they're VGA/SVGA/XGA and handle low-res arcade settings perfectly, but can also do 1280x1024. So you can have your lovely arcade raster graphics with the traditional arcade monitor feel and some high-res modes for vector games. Nothing is going to emulate a real vector monitor, but this is the closest I've found. (you can pick up an 18/19" refurbished one from WG for about $200 - they're $350 new) |

I'm pretty sure there was no stretching, I'll have to take a look at the backup of the config files. |

Hello again, I turned all of the core mame vector settings to 0, and then I made a 640x480 config file for Tempest, and it looks pretty damn good. I would rate it an 8 out of 10. Thanks for the help! |
