General user thoughts and feature wishes

[Retro-Nerd]

I assume Frode already has a lot of ideas to improve FS-UAE+launcher+database. What are your thoughts and wishes? Mine for now:

-50/100Hz refresh rate selector in the launcher
-Warp mode key mappable to joypads
- More website links for the launcher (buttom) e.g. to the WHDLoad readme files, Amiga-Manuals.
- launcher support for the unexotica Amiga music files, Deliplayer as default.
- a hints, cheats, trivia section in the database for each game.
- some gamelist filter as you find in MAME/Emuloader, e.g. List all/available/missing



Some stuff that Frode already consider

-Global support for WHDLoad betas
-A "forced A1200" option for all WHDLoad games in the database
- fully custom configurable whdload.prefs (works fine in a current test version.)
- tabs where you can switch between the official database and your custom configs

I'm not sure about the correct syntax for your joypad, but

keyboard_key_kp2 = action_warp

works fine here (in Custom Settings)

I want to set it in my joypad.conf. Looks like this now. I would replace the menu button for a test.

# USB Gamepad

[default]
include = universal_gamepad
axis_0_neg = dpad_left
axis_0_pos = dpad_right
axis_1_neg = dpad_up
axis_1_pos = dpad_down
button_3 = west_button
button_4 = north_button
button_1 = east_button
button_0 = south_button
button_8 = select_button
button_5 = start_button
button_6 = left_trigger
button_7 = right_trigger
button_2 = menu_button

[TCD]

I'd say it should be:

button_2 = action_warp

[Retro-Nerd]

No, i assume Frode has to make this mappable first.

Have a look here: http://fengestad.no/fs-uae/input-mapping

According to that it should be:

joystick_0_button_2 = action_warp

in your custom settings.

[Retro-Nerd]

Well, it doesn't work in my mapped joypad.conf. But let it stop here, too much OT.

I vote for another scanlike-crt shader that i can play with (settings)
Or any other cool shader, that is usable

If we talk about filter: I like blargg's NTSC filter. You can preselect the look of a composite, s-video and RGB cable. Or you can edit it manually, even the blur and scanlines. Looks pretty authentic in e.g. Nestopia or SNES emulators.

Pretty nice matey, lets hope it will get added eventually into fs-uae.
