Clarification of current command line usage please guys!

[POOTERMAN]

Hey guys, hope all of you are good, haven't posted in here in such a long time and just wanted to ask for some info please!

Just grabbed revision 880 after having not used the emulator for a very long time.

As the emulator is command line driven I checked the parameters from the last build i used (revision 779) and they were as follows for in this example case, Sega Rally 2:

"C:\Supermodel3 Rev 880 64-bit\supermodel.exe" -new3d -quad-rendering -res=2560,1440 -fullscreen -input-system=xinput -force-feedback -no-net -gpu-multi-threaded -vsync -ppc-frequency=100 srally2.zip

I just wanted to ask if some of those command line options are no longer valid or no longer need to be specified as they are classed as 'default' now such as...

-new3d
-quad-rendering
-no-net
-gpu-multi-threaded
-vsync

I didn't want to just copy over my old 'supermodel.ini' config file as I was concerned I might be overwriting some new features revision 880 has specified in it that my older revision 779 didn't etc.

Any help as to what the best command line parameters are to use going from what I have listed in my example abovefor most games would be very much appreciated

Oh and lastly, are there any games that really need the "-ppc-frequency=" setting changed and if so could you be kind enough to let me know what they are please.

Thanks so much for reading my post and for keeping this awesome emulator and community alive and kicking

All the very best,

Just launch the emulator without arguments, but the rom's path only.

WARNING!! If you're playing SEGA Rally 2 please wait for the attract mode to come up, or your nvram will be corrupted and you'll lose all of your SEGA Rally 2's datas!!.
Please have a look at the solution here: http://www.supermodel3.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?p=17133#p17133

Then close emulator.
You'll find defaults inside "Supermodel.log".

I cannot fully explain in details the meaning of all the options.

For PPC Freq. I know SEGA Rally works fine with 100Mhz (I'm using 120Mhz just fine).

Also, if you're having issue with sounds in SEGA Rally 2, please have a look at this: http://www.supermodel3.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?p=17880#p17880

For Supermodel.ini you may need to change these options if you're using a network-enabled build:

Code: Select all

EmulateNet = 0
port_in = 1970
port_out = 1971
addr_out = 127.0.0.1

to these:

Code: Select all

Network = 0
SimulateNet = 1
PortIn = 1970
PortOut = 1971
AddressOut = 127.0.0.1

WARNING!! If you're playing SEGA Rally 2 please wait for the attract mode to come up, or your nvram will be corrupted and you'll lose all of your SEGA Rally 2's datas!!.

As of SVN 864 Sega Rally 2 should no longer have this issue; make sure Games.xml is up to date!

When you run Supermodel without any arguments, it prints command line help, and *should* have the defaults specified in the description of each parameter. Boolean options that are on by default have "[Default]" in their text. If something is missing or inaccurate, please let us know!
