- Hi All,
-
- Here are the modes that I defined for mame.
-
- The purpose of these modes is to make the games run as near to full screen
- as they can, and in many cases, particularly with the higher resolution
- modes, to speed up the emulation.
-
- They were all designed to run on my CTX 1569s (SVGA) Monitor. My monitor
- 'remembers' how I like the screen to be set up for each mode, but other
- people may need to fiddle with their monitors controls to get the screen the
- right ratio.
-
- To use them, just add them to your MDF file. After you've done that, before
- you actually use them, I'd load your new MDF into MakeModes, to check that
- the modes are actually suitable for your monitor. Don't blame me if they're
- not suitable for your monitor, or you didn't check, and you used them
- anyway...
-
- The name of each mode, is the game that I defined it for (although, obviously
- the mode will work with any game that requires that mode). If there's an x2
- after the name, then the mode is for using with the command -doubley (I don't
- like the games run like that though).
