Hi SS!,
I was asking for some free custom modelines in the monitors section but not having any takers. BUT, I am having something a little wierd happening with modeline creation. If you could provide some feedback it would be great.
First off, I am using a NEC-XM29 and XP(32bit) in my cab. My video car is a Visiontek ATI 9200SE (128mb)and running Catylist 9.5 drivers. In Windows, I'm currently using MameUI32 (latest build). I should also mention that while I am not using Powerstrip currently, it has been used before and still installed on my PC.
I was attempting to create modelines through advancemame and while I can create a modeline that looks great in advv it does not translate to the same image in Windows. For example, for DK, advmame uses 400x256x16 8.5/16.1/60.0. If I recreate the resolution in advv.exe and test it, it looks awesome. But, when I take the modeline and place it in Soft15Khz, I get a lot of overscan when I use that same resolution in XP(32bit). Here's the modeline I placed in the usermodes.txt file:
Modeline "400x256@60.00" 8.45856 400 424 472 528 256 257 258 267 -hsync -vsync
Here are pics showing the overscan I mentioned. First two pics are from advmame and advv program. The last three are in Windows XP using MameUI32 (latest build).
Again, any feedback you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
