strange color palette

[Seiya]

it always working good winuae for default palette, but now i have this problem:



the only thing changed is hardware.
before i had a Q9550 with GT1030, now i7 2600 with GTX 1060. Operating System is always the same: Windows 7 64bit.

i used always 32bit version of WinUAE. I tested 5.3, 5.2, 5.1, 4.10, ecc.), so now i tried with 64bit version, but always the same result.
With very old version 3.5.0 (both 32bit and 64 bit) it working as always, with the right palette.

What Graphics API in misc panel? Sounds like GDI mode, try D3D9/D3D11. (Windows 7 still supports 16-bit mode which might the problem)

Ok, thanks.
Putting D3D9/11 it working

[Toni Wilen]

Ok, good..

Do you have gfx_colour_mode=<something> in config file (use text editor to check it). If <something> is not "32bit" (without quotes), change it to "gfx_colour_mode=32bit". Does GDI mode now work with correct colors?

(I still don't recommend GDI mode, it is only a backwards compatibility option if D3D9/D3D11 won't work or can't be used for some reasons)

gfx_colour_mode is always been at 32bit, but maybe i setted GDI compatibility because when i recording with external software was better.


ps: i tried again and WinUAE set again in GDI. Do i have to save every config file for D3D9/11 or i can modify "Winuae.ini"?

When i modify in d3D9/11 even if without saving, it remain in that option even if i exit from WinUAE. But it seems that when i reset che computer it return in GDI.
Winuae.ini is in the same directory of WinUAE.exe, so when i launch the emulator it should be use setting from .ini. Or not?

ps2: watching my various configuration i notice that some of them have gfx_colour_mode=16bit

so to resolve i have to change in 32bit every config file manually ...
