ALG Games getting Video Error

[wisker]

Hello,

I seen the write up on ALG but nothing on my issue, i am getting a error message when i start any of the games from within the FE.

It says: Could not initialize video display:No video mode large enough for 1440X900

Any advise on fixing the issue?

Thanks

Have you tried some different resolutions?

[wisker]

Can the resolutions of the game be changed somwhere in the files? or does the screen resolution have to be changed?

[wisker]

i tried changing res on screen no luck

Wisker,

I think you have some other issue than screen size. I ran mine at 1680x1050 and it ran just fine. What is the resolution of your desktop?

To change the resolution that Daphne Singe is running in:

Open HyperLaunchHQ.

Click on American Laser Games on the left.

Then Modules on top.

Select Daphne Singe.ahk.

Click the Edit Global Module Settings button just above it.

Then set your daphneWidth & daphneHeight.

It would be helpful to post your HyperLaunch.log file set to "Troubleshooting" for further information. Please see this post as well:

There was an error waiting for the window "DAPHNE ahk_class SDL_app". Please check you have the correct version emulator installed for this module, followed any notes in the module, and have this emulator working outside your Frontend first. Also turn off Fade to see if you are hiding your problem.

Daphne Emulator v 1.14

Daphne Singe Module v 2.0.1

This be the problem?

All the Dalphne games work fine, just none of the ALG ones? Maybe something with Dalphine singe?

Daphne Emulator v 1.14

Daphne Singe Module v 2.0.1

Could be for sure. The emulator is the newest version, but the module is not.

The waiting for window error means HyperLaunch could not see the emulator window. That could be caused by many different things. Try turning fade off and see what the emulator does. It often will give you some additional errors.

Thanks,

Ron

They are two different emulators and should be in two different directories.

So there is no comparison.

Thanks,

No luck, going to try to get new module and try.

Best to update your entire HyperLaunch setup:
