Use Quickstart or some frontend. |
Umm, that's a bad answer.
I would favor a
beginner mode and an
expert mode, that is, you do not have to rewrite whole gui, but just
MASK OUT the stuff which no beginner needs, and which would only cause additional confusion, such as:
[CPU]
- CPU idle
- More accurate FPU
- JIT OPTIONS!! (who would even *know* what to "adjust" here?)
[Chipset]
- Collision level: keep Sprites & Sprites vs. Playfield and Full ONLY
[ROM]
- Map Rom emulation & ShapeShifter checkboxes
- Cartridge ROM file & Flash RAM file
[Hard drives]
- Add Hard DRIVE (this is for experts only)
- Include network drives
[Display]
- Correct aspect (very ancient option, will usually override *good* (!) settings if enabled)
[Sound]
- Stereo separation
- Interpolation
- Mixing delay
- Audio driver lag compensation
[Game & IO ports]
- Parallel Port
- Serial Port
- MIDI!!
[Input]
- completely! (User may use Game & IO ports settings in basic mode)
[Output]
- completely! (For freaks only)
[Filter]
- completely!
[Disk swapper]
- completely!
[Misc]
- Don't show taskbar button
- SPTI
- Catweasel
- Keyboard LEDs
- Logging!!
"Priority" might be necessary, as to this day I cannot run most demos fluently without 'Above normal' setting, maybe with a 3 GHz power-eating monster it would be possible, but that is not an option for me atm...
