Title: Golden Tee scrolling issue
Post by: Scoobie on September 23, 2004, 11:37:00 am
I'm running Mamewah 1.51 and my display is a Toshiba 27" tv with component video.  My games in Mame and other emulators seem to display okay, just not GT for PC.

The resolution for my display is set to 640x432 and my layouts in Mamewah are set to 640x480 (I couldn't get MW to run the layouts in 640x432).  I would have liked to run my tv at a higher resolution, but it just doesn't work with my analog set.

When in Golden Tee (PC), the screen seems to be set to something like 800x600 because I can't see the entire screen.  When I move the mouse/trackball, the entire screen "rolls" in the direction I move the mouse.

Is there a solution to this?  I couldn't find anything on the subject.

Thanks!

Anyone know of a fix for this?  There must be a solution, I just can't find it.   ???

it sounds like thats windows autopanning...which means your display dosn't support the resoltion your trying to throw at it. Give powerstrip a shot, that might be able to force it into a dif resoulution.

I had a similiar problem where I could see the intro screens, select my course, etc.. but when the game actually started it started up in a different resolution.  I got around this by pressing Alt-F4 which cycles the golden tee games display resolutions.  I believe I have to press Alt-F4 twice to get it to display.  Let me know if that works.

This worked great.  Is there a way to save the desired resolution?  I need to press Alt-F4 every time I launch the game, and it would be great if I only had to do this once.

Thanks!

You can supposedly update a file in the game directory with the resolution setting but when I tried this it never worked.  I don't recall what file to update but it's in the manual or readme text file.
