Hi,
This week I've bought NBA Hangtime for PC. As a fan of NBA JAM and after playing it on Mame, I supposed that PC version would be a great version of the game. As I have Gravis Grip pads, I tought that it would be a great experience but... it's good, but no great.
At first I thought that's because I'm using a LCD monitor, but after changing to a CRT monitor, the framerate is the same.
The manual shows that pressing alt + enter you can change game resolution. Nothing more.
After installing it in the PC, the game starts in windowed mode 320x240 resolution. In this mode, the game is smooth as butter. TOP QUALITY.
But when you change to other resolutions... every resolution is 640x480, so game is almost 60fps but it's not as perfect as in windowed mode.
These are the graphics options:
1. Windowed mode: 320x240. Smooth gameplay
2. Full screen mode: Rendering at 640x480 but only displays an area of 320x240. Great speed but you have black borders
3. Full screen mode: Rendering at 640x480 but there are a little black bars up and down. I think internal resolution is 640x400.
4. Full screen mode: Full screen 640x480. Not 60fps, maybe 40/50fps.
My pc has a pentium 166mmx. I can not try with something more powerful today, but I would be interesting to know which processor marks the sweet spot to have the same experience than arcade version.
