Winuae display probs

Ryan_clemens · 27 April 2002, 03:17

Superfrogs left hand side of the screen whips back and forward and chaos engine AGA has a line running through the screen
any known fixes?

Last time I checked Superfrog had some major gfx errors, not sure if that was ever fixed...

Superfrog is now working perfectly except problems with left border. I think this is caused by UAE being too "correct" and showing image data during horizontal blanking. Another game (don't remember the name) also has identical problem. I'll fix this someday..

I can't reproduce chaos engine's problem. Can someone post screenshot?

Just load ed up chaos engine aga and on the title screen it says chaos engine AA version shouldn't be be AGA version? anyways
here is that screenshot you were after.
the line stays where it is until you get up the screen and it disappears as you walk up and is replaced by another one at the top of the screen which again scrolls down as you walk up
changing any of the config options does not help with this display problem.

Superfrog got really fixed up in 8.21 so anybody annoyed with the display of previous versions can be happy now.

changing the display to 640x480 hides the left hand side of the screen whipping problem.

I was just thinking about other problems in games and remember shadow of the freezing when I went to the left at the start this probably is no longer happening but will test it.

I was thinking an internal database of config options for amiga games would be good, but I guess there are configs galore on the net and that may be hard to implement trying to ID a game by CRC or some header information or god knows what.

at the very start of the game keep running left the game halts then resets (this could be the game though not winuae) the game also crashes and gurus walking forward for a few seconds I will try different configs though.

when going to the floppies tab to get the next disk cos some games do not support multiple disks, could you make winuae goto the directory of the first floppy disk so you dont need to browse for them.

thought that would be cool

got shadow of the beast to work must have been immediate blits.

Apocalypse.

I didn't think there were ANY Superfrog gfx glitches anymore - I had one at the bottom of the screen before, but now I'm using Full Screen, corrected aspect, horizontally and vertically centered settings, I have no problems. Maybe those settings will help?

Oh, and I might as well take this opportunity to be smug about my new avatar I just uploaded

It's kinda on topic

Excelle wishes he'd read all the posts properly first...

With Twin World, the bottom part of the screen that shows life and weapont information does not appear...
I have tested two different versions of the ADF file, but both of them have the same behavior.

I have the WinUAE version 0.8.21 rel 2.

Ryan_clemens · 21 May 2002, 00:40

I noticed a long time ago that SWIV scrolled strange there are lines that appear as the screen scrolls down, could scrolling be improved? also giana sisters menu is slow scrolling immediate blits looks like it helps a little but I could be imagining it.
I have a Duron 1000 so it isn't my CPU, winfellow displays SWIV fine, except for the points scores at the top of the screen which Winuae also does not display properly, can post pics if you like.
really want to check out the next version..

Fixed!
Use new version 0.8.21 R4!

Works a treat now. Feels like sitting before my A500. :bounce
