Title: Launchbox \ Bigbox FE
Post by: Moksi on March 04, 2022, 09:04:51 am
Hello , i just did a reinstall of my Win 7 64 bit
Before the install i had BigBox running smooth 60 frames per sec

After the clean reinstall BigBox suddenly runs at a 50 frames per sec

im new with crt emudriver but my desktop res is set to 640 x 480i 60  , that was the same res before the reinstall so im quite lost as to why its runs slower now

Probably win7 is cheating you..use display changer II to ensure desktop is @60i. An alternativate is create a custom modeline without 50hz, for example 686x483@60i

interesting ,
Mame & others sega model 2 model 3 is running fine , so its the desktop that isnt really 640x 480 60i then?

dolphin (triforce) i cant get to run 60 either fullscreen (maybe thats a another problem)

i will install crt emudriver again then try the display changer II to see if its fixed

have no knowledge of custom modelines i did notice if i put my desktop to 640 x 480 it has effect with certain emulators [Supermodel i run at 544 x 480 resolution] if i use a higher desktop res the supermodel screen isnt as good , duckstation also i set it to a high res i think 1280 x 240 duckstation would run 50 fps aswell

If i put the desktop to 686x483@60i  will it have influence of the emulator res

Ok installed crt emudriver again , almost everything plays at good speed

LaunchBox , Daphne 4K etc.  even Dolphin triforce ,  only Supermodel displays messed up.

After installing vmmaker videomodes i connected from lcd to the crt & the desktop res is set to 640 by 480  30i   automatically.   

Maybe thats why Supermodel isnt displaying right ?            if i install vmmaker when actually connected to the crt will that mess up the desktop res ? i did that a couple of times before

if i install videomodes when connected to the crt then all the res modes are ported into the desktop res i notice when i did that
