x550 Calamity Driver HELP

<< < (3/6) > >>

Hey All,

So i have done some more reading across the forum, and from what i can tell i need to define my monitor when running the res tool,

However i am alittle unsure of how to set it.

The monitor is a WG k7000,

Should my clock be set to 0 for a X550 card?

And where do i define it as not being a multisync monitor ?

Thanks all sorry for being such a nub !

epicfatigue:
Anyone able to help me or point me in the right direction of where i can locate documentation on how to tell res maker to only select the correct frequenies for my moniror?

krick:
The basic idea this...

First you specify one of the pre-defined monitor profiles in VMMaker or specify "CUSTOM" and provide your own custom profile, then when you run VMMaker, it generates a list of resolutions optimized for your monitor's capabilities.

Second you need to specify either the same pre-defined profile in GroovyMAME, or provide the same custom monitor specs that you used for VMMaker.

It doesn't appear that anyone has come up with a monitor preset for the WG K7000, so you probably want to just use the CGA or GENERIC monitor profile.

epicfatigue:
:(

K well ill try selecting Generic Monitor and CGA in groovy see if they solves it.

If not is there anywhere i can do some reading on understanding how to create a custom setting to suit a WG k7000.

%Update%

So i tested all the resolutions using the Srcade OSD tool.
They all work perfectly.
However it appears to be groovy  that is selecting the refresh rate, is there a section in here where i can just have it to leave it as it is (15hz)

Calamity:
Hi epicfatigue,

If the resolutions created by VMMaker work well, then it's a matter of opening vmmaker.ini and copying the monitor_specs line there into mame.ini. Please pay attention to the slight format differences, read the final notes here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,116023.msg1230485.html#msg1230485

Now, attach here a log of one of your problematic games to help us identify the issue: groovymame romname -v -md 4 >romname.txt

All the reading available is spread in individual posts in this forum. Hopefully we'll have a wiki before the end of the year.
