; VideoModeMaker - Options ; ------------------------ ; 1. MAME ; ------- ; Path for Mame executable, in case we want to extract xml information from it. MameExe = "g:\hyperspin\emulators\Mame\groovymame.exe" ; Path for Mame ini folder, in case we want to create an ini file for each game. ; Important: existing ini files will be overwritten. IniPath = "g:\hyperspin\emulators\Mame\ini\" ; Mame options. ListFromXML = 1 ; Processes Mame XML and get video mode list from it GenerateXML = 0 ; Extracts XML from Mame (only needed once) OnlyListMain = 0 ; Only list resolutions for games contained in MameMain.txt GenerateInis = 0 ; Creates an ini file for each Mame game, in the IniPath folder SDLMame = 0 ; Use SDLMame specific options ; Monitor orientation MonitorHorizontal = 1 ; 0 = Rotating monitor: horizontal and vertical games at their native resolution ; Suitable for users that physically rotate their CRTs ; 1 = Horizontal monitor: horizontal games run at their native resolution and ; vertical games are rotated to fit in horizontal monitor RotatingDesktop = 0 ; Specifies if both desktop and monitor are rotated ; Aspect ratio for vertical games on horizontal monitor ; 4:3 (keeps original aspect ratio) ; 3:3 (stretches to square format) ; 3:4 (stretches to full screen) ; h:v (custom aspect ratio) VerticalAspect = "4:3" ; 2. MONITOR ; ---------- ; Monitor Type. Valid types: D9800, D9400, D9200, EGA, VGA, MULTI, H9110, PAL, NTSC, GENERIC, CUSTOM MonitorType = "CUSTOM" ; Monitor CUSTOM. These values will be used if MonitorType = "CUSTOM" ; ; monitor_specs0-6 HfreqMin-HfreqMax, VfreqMin,VfreqMax, HFrontPorch, HSyncPulse, HBackPorch, VfrontPorch, VSyncPulse, VBackPorch, HSyncPol, VSyncPol, ActiveLinesLimit, VirtualLinesLimit ; ; * HfreqMin-HfreqMax: Minimum and maximum horizontal frequency, in Hz. Defines the range of horizontal frequencies the monitor is capable to sync. ; The higher the horizontal frequency, the higher the vertical resolution available for the same vertical refresh. ; The higher the horizontal frequency, the higher the vertical refresh available for the same vertical resolution. ; The higher the horizontal frequency, the lower the horizontal amplitude of active video (narrower picture). ; ; * VFreqMin-VfreqMax: Minimum and maximum vertical frequency, in Hz, Defines the range of vertical frequencies the monitor is capable to sync. ; ; * HFrontPorch, HSyncPulse, HBackPorch: Horizontal timing and geometry, values in µs ; ; * VfrontPorch, VSyncPulse, VBackPorch: Vertical timing and geometry, values in ms ; ; * HSyncPol,VSyncPol: sync polarities, 0 = negative, 1 = positive. ; ; * ActiveLinesLimit: Vertical resolutions until ActiveLinesLimit value included, are generated as progressive, regardless the possibility ; of obtaining the required vertical refresh value. ; ; * VirtualLinesLimit: Vertical resolutions above ActiveLinesLimit and below VirtualLinesLimit are virtualized, that is, an interlaced resolution ; bigger that the native one is generated, with the right refresh, and "hardware stretch" is applied. ; Vertical resolutions above VirtulaLinesLimit are generated as interlaced, without any stretching. monitor_specs0 31400-31500, 49.50-65.00, 0.940, 3.770, 1.890, 0.349, 0.064, 1.017, 0, 0, 512, 800 ; Tolerance for horizontal frequency, in kHz, enables extending the range defined by [ HfreqMin, HfreqMax ] ; The resulting allowed frequency range will be [ HfreqMin - HfreqTolerance, HfreqMax + HfreqTolerance ] HfreqTolerance = 0.010 ; 3. MODELINE GENERATOR ; --------------------- ; Total number of modelines to generate. Here are the recommended values for each driver version: ; CRT_Emudriver, based on Catalyst 6.5: 160 modes (accepts up to 200, but above 160 HyperSpin will refuse to load) ; CRT_Emudriver, based on Catalyst 9.3: 120 modes (accepts some more but above 120 you can get some blue screens) ; Regular Catalyst : 60 modes (won't accept any more) TotalModes = 120 ; If enabled, only creates modes with 32 bits per pixel color depth Only32BPPModes = 0 ; Method for mode table generation. If Mame xml is processed, that will create a lot of different video modes, so the mode table ; will be optimized keeping the most relevant ones, and dropping the rest, to keep below the TotalModes value. ; ; 0 = Static table: modelines are generated keeping their original vertical refresh. This method is intended to be used in ; combination with ini files for each game. ; ; 1 = Dynamic table: a table of dummy modes is created using xres and yres values while ignoring vfreq. This method is intended ; to be used in combination with Switchres or Groovymame. No ini files are required using this method (you should disable the ; GenerateInis option). ; ; 2 = Magic table: a table of 'magic resolutions' is created, by ignoring xres and vfreq and just keeping yres. This method greatly reduces ; the total number of modes in the list. It's only supported by GroovyMAME, and is intended as a workaround for the Hyperspin issue. ModeTableMethod_Custom = 0 ModeTableMethod_XML = 1 ; Minimum resolution values (these will be used instead of lower values) XresMin_XML = 512 YresMin_XML = 400 YresRound_XML = 4 XresMin_Custom = 240 YresMin_Custom = 160 YresRound_Custom = 0 ; Minimum dotclock value allowed by the video card, in MHz (i.e. DotClockMin = 7.010) DotClockMin = 0 ; Number of iterations used by the mode generator [0,5]. The higher the number of iterations, the bigger the accuracy of the vertical ; refreshed obtained, normally at the cost of increasing the horizontal frequency strictly required. Iterations = 0 ; Specifies if the refresh label is multiplied by 10 before rounding (experimental). VFreqLabelx10 = 0 ; 4. DRIVER ; --------- ; Path for the driver folder DriverPath = ".\Driver\" ; If UpdateRegistry is enabled, UpdateDriver will only work if the driver version found in DriverPath matches the one installed ; in the system. UpdateRegistry = 1 ; Specifies if the video card registry section will be updated with the new video modes ; (will only work in combination with CRT_EMUDriver). UpdateDriver = 0 ; Specifies if the driver files in DriverPath will be updated with the new video modes, for ; future installations. AnyCatalyst = 0 ; Allows modelines to be installed for any Catalyst version. This option is experimental and ; known to produce some problems.
