Pages: 1 SharkGrey MAME Fan Reged: 03/04/16 Posts: 19 Send PM Which Monitor for Arcade Accuracy #351798 - 03/21/16 10:56 PM Reply For XArcade, they offer two different monitors. A 29" Tri-Mode CRT Arcade Monitor CGA/EGA/VGA and a 27/29 Inch Makvision CRT SVGA Arcade Monitor. I'm no monitor expert but am hoping to here which would be better for HLSL displays and attempts to have accuracy as close to the original arcade as possible. Here are links with more info to both: http://shop.xgaming.com/products/27-29-inch-makvision-crt-arcade-monitor http://shop.xgaming.com/collections/arcade-parts/products/tri-mode-crt-arcade-monitor I would think the tri-mode but the authors make it sound as if the Makvision is better. edcosta 15khz user Reged: 05/25/07 Posts: 178 Send PM Re: Which Monitor for Arcade Accuracy [Re: SharkGrey] #351802 - 03/22/16 01:02 AM Reply > I would think the tri-mode but the authors make it sound as if the Makvision is > better. For the tri-mode is necessary a ArcadeVGA graphic board, or a software 15khz converter... (sorry, my english is bad...)

You want to simulate a low res CRT on a low res CRT ??? HLSL or whatever crt shader is to simulate those over a HD display for instance, but you're buying the actual genuine thing, so you'll no longer need shaders or anything. But you'll need a 15KHz-capable setup as he said, yes. PS: the tri-sync is also capable of displaying VGA-type PC signals if you want, so you could use HLSL on it, but that would be absurd since it can display real 15Khz signals anyway. > MAME isn't about playing the games anyway.

HLSL looks like ass on anything less than 1024x768. The op needs ta be readin a bunch o things if they's gonna be using a 15khz monitor. Since they're thinkging of using HLSL on it, they don't know one from the other..... Scifi frauds. SF illuminates. _________________ Culture General Contact Unit (Eccentric) Firehawke Manual Meister Reged: 08/12/06 Posts: 665 Send PM Re: Which Monitor for Arcade Accuracy [Re: SharkGrey] #351985 - 03/26/16 10:01 AM Reply I'm assuming this is for arcade/older console only. With that assumption in mind, I'd go with the trimode and get soft15khz (http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Soft-15khz) set up to work with it. --- Try checking the MAME manual at http://docs.mamedev.org Pages: 1
