Scanlines or NO scanlines? - Page 2

Ironclaw · 28 March 2007, 17:28

If better quality can be aquired, why not obtain it?

heck, the reason why I was stuck in Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis for 5 months was that I couldn't find the 1x1 pixeled gear on the ground, not clear enough on a TV. But not long ago, I finally completed the game in Winuae as I could finally SEE the 1 pixel gear, yay!.

Was the same in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade; there was a casette tape, taped to the back of a table, it was 1x1 pixel big too.... had trouble spotting it on a blurry, lousy TV.... NOT ANYMORE!.. I see it all, yay!.

It looks about the same for me except the fact that WinUAE better centers the display. (there is something funny going on with my miggy

)

I connect my laptop to the TV and I don't see much difference.

You can make actually WinUAE look even better then on real hardware, but I don't see why is that a problem?!

Real amiga didn't intentionally have HD installs for the games, so I assume none of you 'like to get perfect feel' uses WHDLoad either. Same goes for speed up drive speed and rest of WinUAE added options...

I'm talking about PC MONITORS. And why you connect your laptop to the TV? To get the real look, right?

Well if you are talking about connecting to TV then I don't use scanlines either. Why would you need to???

The problem as Retro-Nerd pointed out is that when using PC monitors the games look absolutely shite without scanlines

You feeling foul and dirty has nothing to do with scanlines or your name in a poll option

This has nothing to do with scanlines

the games do look shite, but they look worse with scanlines!

ROFL!

He feels dirty because he's been associated with your kind DamienD.

I wouldn't feel dirty. I'd feel there was no turning back and buy an Atari and sleep with it.

Luckily I don't use scanlines so I am a legend. You DamienD are a cad.

Shoonay · 28 March 2007, 17:44

Scanlines?
That's prolly how Data from Star Trek "sees" the world

Tho, he's on vertical

I assume you can't find the tickbox in WinUAE, right KG?

I wish WinUAE had a TV emulation like MAME does... RGB triad filters and all, it really helps it look like a TV, a good portion of the Aliasing is gone, and Arcade games have alot more of it, in the Amiga much was removed by hand and attention to pixel art.

Examples at: http://advancemame.sourceforge.net/rgb.html
