gunit Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Evening Guys, I have two issues I need help with:- 1) Hyperspin loads in AAE fine but when I browse through the games I can't select to play ? I see the videos etc but I cant enter them ? tried pressing every button but cant get in. Tested in RocketLauncher and selected an indivdual game which works fine ? 2) When I quite out of testing an AAE game in roicket Launcher I am left with a VERY over exsposed desktop of colours in windows ? Can anyone assist please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunit Posted July 6, 2019 Author Share Posted July 6, 2019 Point 1) Fixed:- Execution: Need to set to HyperLaunch. Any ideas on point 2) ? I have to restart the machine when I quite out of a game as all the colour and graphics are missed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigapig Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Sounds like windows is being set to a low res by the emulator. Why not use mame to run those games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway to set it back on game exit ? I know mame has come a long way but from the sounds of things AAE emulator is still very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creezz67 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Every AAE game works perfectly well using MAME, so no need to use AAE emulator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawk Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 press "Tab" in AAE and in the video options try to choose a resolution that has x32 at the end. Admittedly, graphics are much better in AAE for these Vector games. However, the version I had said "coming soon" for joystick support. Maybe I have an old version??? I could easily get around this with JoyToKey but you would lose the analog part of movement (mapped to the arrow keys) in the process. For now I run them through Mame as well.

Great idea but it did not work Its strange as when I quite each AAE game the overexsposed colour, low res graphics appear but then when I select another game in AAE it flicks back to normal again on load. It must be a global setting to apply to all of the AAE emulator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set Resolution - tried both 32 and 8 bit depth (1280x1024, 60 frame) and also did the same in the emulator resolution like you explained earlier Still the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunit Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 Just testing the Emulator on its own with the same issues makes me think its a graphic card driver issue ? I'm using an up-to-date - AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigapig Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Have you tried the "General "settings in Rocketlauncher? There should be a restore windows on exit check box or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The suspend/restore frontend option may refresh the resolution upon return as well, if you find something that works, do post it please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLayed with this earlier:- In RocketLaunch / Settings / Exit Restore Frontend On Exit = Restore Restore Resolution On Exit = True But no good * When just testing the emulator on its own in windows it does the same over coloured low-res effect when I quite so im thinking its something else ?

gunit Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 This is what happens in Hyperspin when playing or in windows when testing the Emulator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawk Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Do you use esc as your exit key? I just had a quick look at the module settings. There is not a spot to choose resolution but there is a spot to choose "windowed fullscreen". Also the exit mode can be changed which may or may not help. To get there go to the Modules tab in RLUI, highlight AAE, and then click the "edit global module settings" button along the top. There are not a lot of options for this particular system but other systems have a lot of useful settings in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I've seen this type of thing before. Usually colour bit change or it doesn't like to switch between certain resolutions. Maybe it doesn't like to be windowed??? The AAE module notes that true fullscreen is not compatible with pause so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunit Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 This makes sense to me:- The Emulator has changed the video mode to be something that it needs; And it did not restore the video mode when it finished; And Windows wasn't made aware of that; So Windows doesn't know what to do or doesn't think that anything has changed and continues to treat the display as if it's in the original mode, not the mode that the game left it in.
