Title: Part of picture missing, what's up?
Post by: Apollo on March 22, 2004, 05:47:01 pm
I am running ArcadeVGA card and arcade monitor, most things run fine but some games have a couple of inches missing at the bottom of the screen eg MK1 can only see fighters from the knees up ( makes that leg sweep kinda hard, lol ). I have tried adjusting the vertical size and position of the picture but that is not the problem. Also some games have a small black square at bottom right of screen about 3cm x 3cm. Any advice or ideas on any of this?
Thankyou.

You're probably running at a resolution not supported by the card well or you're not using hardware streching when you should be.  Check the INI for that individual game.
