I'm using Z26 for Atari 2600. Now, my problem is that when I load it up, it is only on about 1/4 of the screen (top left). How can I make it go full screen? |

I do not use z26 anymore, I switched to the "stella" emulator instead (not sure why), but anyway, here is some information which will help you out: 1) I went to the following site and downloaded "Atari 2600-Z26 ver. 2.13” http://www.emuchrist.org/cpviewer/applications.htm 2) Here is a document which explains tons of command line parameters (ie: Video Modes for fullscreen is what you are asking about now): http://www.whimsey.com/z26/z26.pdf Video Modes: Mode 0 — 400x300 (default) Mode 1 — 320x240 Mode 2 — 320x200 Mode 3 — 800x600 scanline/interlaced Mode 4 — 640x480 scanline/interlaced Mode 5 — 640x400 scanline/interlaced Mode 6 — 800x600 double scanline Mode 7 — 640x480 double scanline Mode 8 — 640x400 double scanline 3) Here is an example of how I start a game fullscreen (using Video Mode 8 ): z26 -v8 "C:\Emulators\RomFiles\Atari2600\Adventure.bin" |

There are many screen size/resolutions available for Z26 using the commandline parameters. You need to create a file named z26.cli and place it in the Z26 folder. If you read the docs it is talked about and the parameters are specified. It is tough to find in there but it is talked about. Good Luck, John |

Maybe I should switch to Stella. Is it easier to use than this Z26? I am terrible with getting in and changing things. The more simple the better for me... |
