Title: monitor for Visual Pinball
Post by: deadmoney5 on July 12, 2005, 08:47:03 pm

I have a Mame cabinet with a 25" tv..

I have been toying with Visual Pinball and love it except that, with a tv, things aren't too sharp graphically..

Obviously this isn't much of an issue with Mame, but with the Pinball it would be nice to have sharper graphics..

any suggestion for me without spending too much?

I run Visual Pinball in my cabinet and I have a VGA monitor.  Looks excellent.

If your TV supports PAL you can use 768x576i resolution. At least on my arcade monitor it is a big difference compared to 640x480i.
