Metropolice Demo screen resolution problems
Hi,
I downloaded the demo from pouet.net the other night and installed it on my A4000. I dont know if its any help, but I have the Indivision 4000 installed with HighGFX 40.6. http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=...ents=25&page=4 When I run the demo, the demo doesnt fit on my screen? The right hand side and bottom parts of the demo are cut off. I have a Dell 1908 FPB which can display 1280 x 1024, so I dont think its the monitor at fault. Can anyone provide any tips? Anyway to force the demo to run at a pre-defined resolution? |

Oh, and have you tried using auto-adjust on your monitor while the demo is running? And do other demos show up ok? |

What's the minimum spec to watch this demo on A1200...?
I've watched this fine in WinUAE but on my real A1200 with 68060 @ 50Mhz and 128Mb RAM it runs slow and often crashes out. ![]() |

But crashing? Can you tell me where it crashes exactly, or is it at random points? |

Last time I ran it crashed out right after the credits part near the beginning if I remember correctly.
It's a few weeks since I tried it - I could run it again later when I'm at home if you like and post the result...? Gotta add that I did just run the demo from a CLI prompt from within Workbench so it's maybe my fault if the demo would be best run with no startup-sequence... |

I ran the demo again last night but this time I ran it as I was supposed to in the first place - ie. no startup sequence.
It worked fine. ![]() I must have had problems previously because I was doing other things in Workbench at the same time as running the demo so the issues were my fault - apologies. |

Digging out the topic - sorry for that :-)
I have a problem running this demo on my A1200 + Warp 1260 @85MHz. If I run it in a standard way from desktop, I have problems with sound - like there was not enough power for it. I tried to run it without S-S but then it complains about no suitable graphics mod: "no suitable screen-ModeID". What's going on? How can I run it? I never had a 060 accelerator and now when i have it, I'd like to wach all the demos I couldn't watch ;-) |

[edit] Oh yes, that did the trick. Thanks! You know, it's my firs 060 contact, I may say. Some things are new. Last edited by perinoid; 15 October 2021 at 08:10. |
