Specify interlaced resolution in ReslList.txt
« on: November 08, 2013, 11:42:29 pm »
Hey Calamity,

This might be a noob question, but I'm trying to set up a 496x384 resolution to have Model2/3 games in "native" res. Now I know on a 15K setup, this will have to be interlaced. But when I add this line to the ReslList.txt, run vmmaker and reboot, the mode doesn't appear in Arcade OSD.

Is what I want to do possible?

Thanks in advance.

Calamity

Hi lordsnipe,

You need to use a custom line like this:

monitor_specs0  15625-16200, 49.50-65.00, 2.000, 4.700, 8.000, 0.064, 0.160, 1.056, 0, 0, 288, 384

The remarked value is the lowest number of lines allowed for interlaced modes. By default it's 400, that's why your mode was being discarded.

Now be aware you're going to get a very odd aspect ratio there, the same one as 192p.

Steps to create a log:
 - From command line, run: groovymame.exe -v romname >romname.txt
 - Attach resulting romname.txt file to your post, instead of pasting it.
