Speaking of scalers, is it still normal for scalers to not work with machine=vgaonly in the latest CVS version? (r4025) Tried using it with scaler=normal3x and aspectratio=true, but it doesn't work, instead I get a weird normal2x scale with ugly stretching. Also been getting a lot of buffer underrun …

Sorry, ATM I don't have the time or the resources (my own PC) to test the patch. Will do so in a month or so.

There are likely many other patches that don't play nice with munt's, so that's why I decided against contacting the author.

Nope, I was not going to say that. My own main PC is some twelve years old and has Windows XP on it, and my other PC sports an old Viewsonic LCD with a resoltion of 1024x768. Ah, that's not what I meant, I meant that for pixel perfect to work, I would need a higher resolution monitor, as some have …

Settings: fullscreen=true fullresolution=desktop output=surfacepp machine=svga_s3 aspect=true scaler=normal3x My monitor's native resolution is 1366x768, which is the 16:9 analogue of 1024x768. I know, I know, I probably should get a bigger monitor, but money's tight right now. (gee, does that make …

Okay, thanks for the fix Ant_222! This time it compiled properly. Though, I couldn't get it to stretch the image (or pixels) to the correct aspect ratio. Instead I get what I would normally get by using normal3x without aspect ratio correction. I'll read this thread in more detail to see what to …

Before you run "configure" even. Obviously! I'm asking because munt's patch requires me to apply it after running autogen.sh Do you know how diff files work? If not, I recommend reading this article first. It seems that the part of the Makefile.am the munt diff wants to change has already been …

Just got the latest commit from the git repo, and compiling the emulator libraries (mt32emu) works fine, but compiling anything else that depends on the libraries (like mt32emu_qt) ends up spewing those kinds of errors: Master.cpp:(.text+0x25a7): undefined reference to `MT32Emu::FileStream:: …

There are small stutters to be seen. I guess running the NTSC version would make more sense for 60 fps videos. Okay, I've now decided to install chromium so I could see the 50/60fps videos, and took a look at the Pang video and had no stutters, everything played smoothly even on an older dual core …

Added the soundtrack of Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (Amiga, IBM-PC Speaker, AdLib, CM-32L/MT-32 and Macintosh II) Can't wait to see what you guys say 😁 To my surprise I'm quite happy with the way I worked on the CM-32L version, which is my favourite.

Of course, but then you can't expect it to be totally smooth when displayed on a 60 Hz device. Does that make sense? It does, mostly for older hardware. I thought modern graphic cards are able to hide any artefacts of the differences between framerates through buffers and vsync, filling out " …
