Supermodel Forum

hi everybody and thanks for Model3 ému
I am a Linux user

Code: Select all

Linux RECALBOX 4.15.16 SMP Tue Dec 17 04:44:50 CET 2019 x86_64 GNU / Linux

Supermodel is in

Code: Select all

version r787

* At first I have some questions concerning the roms to know if a set `Mame .0217` is viable for the emulation under supermodel?

* there is a problem with the SegaRally2 game:
- at the first launch no problem to contact everything works at its best (except the glitch that there can be during the race)
- on the second launch the game menu is no longer complete, we no longer see the choices available but only the background of the image
- after deleting the NVRAM file from the games `srally2.nv` the problem disappears!

* some option does not seem to work:
-show-fps: does not appear on the screen
-wide-screen: does not work
-stretch: does not work

* I would like a little more information on this:

Code: Select all

-vert-shader = <file> Load Real3D vertex shader for 3D rendering
  -frag-shader = <file> Load Real3D fragment shader for 3D rendering
  -vert-shader-fog = <file> Load Real3D scroll fog vertex shader (new engine)
  -frag-shader-fog = <file> Load Real3D scroll fog fragment shader (new engine)
  -vert-shader-2d = <file> Load tile map vertex shader
  -frag-shader-2d = <file> Load tile map fragment shader

thank you for your response to come!

Wide screen and stretch should work. You can see the difference in the racing games.
-show-fps only shows the frame rate in the window title bar. There is no in-emulator user interface, unfortunately. We really should at least have a way to display messages in the emulator but I've been too lazy to figure out how to properly perform text rendering.

The shader options are really for development purposes at this point. I think the new engine totally ignores these options. The legacy engine still supports them. The default shaders are compiled in and you can find them in the source code.

Thanks for your feedback !
I have one last question,
when I switch the emulator to

Code: Select all

-fullscreen

I can no longer use my wiimote which is in mouse mode so that everything works again I must return to default mode

Code: Select all

windowed

is this a known problem?
thanks again bart

Never tried usinga Wiimote. Does the mouse work?

no the mouse does not work in

Code: Select all

-fullscreen

but only in

Code: Select all

 -windowed

the dolphin bar has a mouse mode which allows you to configure a wiimote as a mouse it is quite satisfying for gun games

That's really odd. I don't have access to a Linux box right now but I seem to recall the mouse working in full-screen mode, at least in LA Machineguns. I'm not sure what would cause that...

Hi, I'm new to the forum and hope it's ok to use this thread for my issues on Linux.

I'm on Arch Linux and my GPU is a RX580. Everything 3D isn't drawn, the emulator complains about missing functions it can call.
