No, no chance to emulate this cool effect : vertical change of resolution. at right, The scrolltext is in HiRes. At left, LoRes is used.
It appear also at the end of the game (scrolltext+pictures)
and in the Menu of the demo Runaway/2000ad

if you know others prods using it, let know us

Why not? It is already emulated (partially) but it is not worth the trouble just for one or two programs..

bobbybearing · 07 March 2007, 14:05

yep, sorry
It's what I wanted to say : it's partially emulated

Correction: It will be fixed in future because bug (or more like missing feature) causing the black bar in Disposable Hero also affects other programs.

As far as I can see running this game, "scrolltext is in HiRes. At left, LoRes is used" it's not yet been implemented in latest WUAE 1.4.5 (and 1.4.6b2)... or do I have to set-up a special config?

StevenJGore · 28 December 2007, 10:07

Yep, I get the same problem with the title screen as hoborg in post #1 above. I'm using the CD32 version with WinUAE 1.4.6 Beta 2.

Lores/hires mixing has been done long time ago. (usually it is good idea to search/browse beta changelogs. DH issue has been mentioned multiple times..)

Problem is basically same as here: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=20007 (first screenshot)

Fix is "simple" but it means major changes, too easy to break everything else and need to do it without slowing down "normal" programs..

dlfrsilver · 28 December 2007, 18:29

dynablaster end sequence has the same problem too...

Very helpful..

dlfrsilver · 28 December 2007, 21:45

what do you mean by major changes, what are the main problems you'll encounter to implement lores-hires mix ?

..

anyway, display emulation is not designed for this feature. at all..

(btw, screenshot and statefile from dynablaster issue please)

dlfrsilver · 29 December 2007, 04:02

after checking, it works with winuae 1.4.5. it was broken in an older version of winuae. my apologizes toni

it was not a pb related to DH then.

jharrison · 03 June 2008, 10:22

anyone know, with certainty, if this issue is resolved with latest betas?

StevenJGore · 13 June 2008, 08:35

Just checked with 1.5.0 Beta 22, and the problem is still there. Was it supposed to be fixed? I can't remember!

Steve.

Toni Wilen · 13 June 2008, 11:29

no
