Game resolutions

[ccovell]

MagicKit looks to set the screen height to 224 (going from what HuC has...), but what's worse, several emulators have their resolution fixed to this and won't display more than 224 lines... common culprits are MagicEngine and YAME, which is what started my whole resolution measuring in the first place, and which is what also led to this (scroll down to the very bottom).

Thank goodness some emulators like Mednafen let you adjust whether to clip off any or none of the PCE's full 242 lines of resolution...

Chris, your examples are really interesting   For fun I booted up one of the very few PC Engine emulators for the Mac simply called "TGEmu" and captured the first screen of Bonk's Revenge.  I see water and coconuts!

[Arkhan]

Oh...well thats an interesting "fun" fact.

Guess I never noticed since I dont play games on the emulator too much..

good to know for sure.

[spenoza]

How does one do this in Mednafen?

[ccovell]

";First rendered scanline.
pce.slstart 1

;Last rendered scanline.
pce.slend 240"

in mednafen.cfg, as far as I know.

[Arkhan]

Yeah, im so used to magic engine and its pretty GUI that I dont use Mednafen much...

what res is keith courage in? 

256x240?

[Tom]

The new ME has support for 240 scanline mode.

[Arkhan]

Yeah, I might upgrade to that and buy the PCFX emulator while im at it.

Between Mednafen and Ootake I still don't see why I should buy a TG emulator.

 There is none, but some people have already purchased ME and the upgrades are free.

like me.

But, I do prefer ootake, and forgot I even had it.

I just remembered 10 mins ago oddly enough.

I found what should be the main hand written list that I made. I know the count was higher at one point, but still 90 or so titles is still quite a few for a "so-far-found" list.

Wow, that's a lot more than I thought. I also wasn't aware Military Madness had a bigger resolution, I would've easily thought that was another 256x224/240 game.
