Crt EmuDriver and other emulators
« on: February 21, 2021, 04:24:35 pm »
Hi all,

I have a PC with CRT EmuDriver installed. If I wanted to correctly configure and use any other emulator do I need to select which resolution from the generated list that most closely resembles the emulator's original resolution and that is all, or is there more to it than that.

I would like to incorporate Model 2 emulator and Supermodel if that is possible. As I am using a 31khz monitor, matching the original resolution won't be possible. But I hoped I could maybe get it close.

As it stands, I have both setup as 640x480 but I can still see some screen tearing on some games so am assuming in have something wrong somewhere. The game I can see it in most is Indy 500 and the 'Ladies and Gentlemen' intro section.

Thanks

Native for m2 is something like 490x390. You will probably get screen tearing if you use non native resolution.

Thanks for that, fuchi_jeg. So, as long as I match up resolutions nothing else has to be changed. I wasn't sure if I was missing anything else.

To be fair, even at 640x480 all other games look great.

Correct. GM's will maintain the correct timings as far as I know.
