Title: Can you enter cus. resolutions?
Post by: Legend on 26 February 2004, 02:05:54
i want to be able to use resolutions below 512x??? so i can play this game i have at full speed. I tried entering a string in the glide section of the registry where i see 4 res. and their refresh rates but that did'nt seem to work. Can we only use the 4 resolutions?

Well, its actually the NBA Hangtime N64 rom. It's very slow with all that's available in emulation right now, the only thing I can do to play this fun game is use the Glide64 plugin and choose a low-res-because of the limitations of the V2 also.it's not quite full speed but its almost there I just need one resolution drop from the 512x384. Soooo can the V2 do lower resolutions?? Thanks.

you can't go below 512x384 with a voodoo1 or a voodoo2.

It just seems to me that your game runs very badly on emulators.
glide64 lets me use a great resolution (1024x768 fsaa 4X) on my voodoo5, without slow down
so I highly doubt you'd be so much fill-rate limited in a N64 game
:D

A Voodoo2 Wicked3D can reach in theory the 320*320 with the "technology" Re2Flex (Metabyte drivers).

Well, when i use to have a V5, the game worked fine on any emulator and was full speed (w/ Glide 64).

And i run all my games at 1024x768 no problem. The more I've dropped the res. the faster it's gotten. It's just needs a faster voodoo clock speed or something I suppose. Anyway, mood point i guess, oh well, thanks anyway.
