Double ntsc in winUAE?
« on: October 20, 2007, 04:05:51 PM »
My double ntsc and double pal modes all come out looking like this:



which really screws me up because all my programs want to open in a double mode of some sort, and every time I open a new file in Brilliance it wants to change the screen mode to double something.

How can I get these modes to work?

May I ask why you are using these modes?  The standard PAL/NTSC resolutions should automatically be scan doubled.

Either way, I would suggest using a P96 mode over the native custom chips.


As I mentioned, a lot of the programs try to open in these modes because that was the way my old A1200 was set up.  So it'd be easier if this would just display properly.  Because the graphics are all screwy, I can't read anything to figure out how to change these programs :C

What is a P96 mode?  This is a rip of my old amiga, so I don't know what any of the fancy high res modes are that AIAB some how manages.  There's DBLNTSC, DBLPAL some multi sync modes and the standard ntsc and pal.

In WinUAE Properties, Display, change Line Mode to normal.

Also try the "correct aspect ratio" tick box.

Make sure you dont have "force low resolution" ticked.

I totally get why there's no need for the modes, it's just I've got programs that I can't change the modes in, because I can't read anything.

Will putting the monitors in the storage folder force these programs to run in another mode?

No reason why WinUAE could'nt be made to work in these modes though ;-)


Exactly.

Toni Wilen, the author of WinUAE says that these modes do operate as designed. However he has made changes recently to SuperHiRes emulation that will make dblpal and dblntsc look correct.

Wait for the next release of WinUAE beta (1.4.5?) release due in a few more days.


Wow!  thanks :)
