Arcadeos - What setup is optimal for Arcade Monitor
« on: October 24, 2002, 01:18:37 pm »
What setup is optimal for Arcade Monitor for Arcadeos?  What display settings should I use?  Meaning Font Size, colors etc...  Is there a way to change the font larger on an Arcade Monitor?  I seen the CFG and says this is only for SVGA.

If you set the DISPLAY to 320x200 for an arcade monitor you loose the choices of font size due to screen resolution.  However the default font with 320x200 is very large when at this resolution. I think the choice of font color etc will depend on your personal preference.

Thanks!  I was worried about the font size being unreadable on the arcade monitor.  I feel alot better now!
