Model2 Wrapper?

[Lilwolf]

Howard (or others)... Does your generic wrapper work with Nebulas Model2 emulator?

Thanks

Have you gotten model2 games to run smooth???

[Howard_Casto]

Yup, set the end method to terminate and it should work fine.

[Lilwolf]

great!  I'll take a look.

I still haven't got it to launch full screen yet... sigh...

but that was with a total of 5 minutes of config time.

yur in the wrong gui mode.... make sure nebula's classic gui is turned on

[Lilwolf]

Thanks for the heads up!  I'll give it a try.

lilwolf are you able to play the model 2 games in fullscreen without it becoming super choppy? if so what kind of computer is allowing you to do this.

the video card seems to be a little more important.

I have it a 2.1ghz athlon with NVidia geforce4mx video card.  Most run perfect.

it runs MUCH better now (geforce) then it did when I had an ATI radeon 9700 (a card thats about 20x faster!)

Yeah, it always disappoints me that emulation developers have a pos invidia card in their workstation.  For record and only for the record.... ever since about the radeon 7500/8000 the ati cards have been much more efficient (not faster, don't misunderstand me) about hardware assisted rendering than the geforce cards.  The problem is it is literally a different animal coding for ati cards.  So if the developer doesn't code speficially for it, the end result is MUCH slower than it should be.  

If developers were to put an equal amount of time coding for ati as they do for invidia the ati cards would do as well or better than their invidia counter parts, regardless of the fact that ati cards (except fot the 9600, 9700 and 9800) are cheaper and slower.  It's similar to the way an athlon can out perform the newest intel chipset, regardless of the fact that it's 200 bucks cheaper and a lower clock speed.  

Ok I'm done ranting.... long story short... support ati.... even if it's a lame pos computer for your grandma, but an ati card in it over a generic invidia.  The more we support the cards, the better support they will get in the gaming industry.
