Core Specific Settings Ignored

Unread post by anderse77 »

Tried to add the following for the minimg-aga core. According to mister, screen displays 640x480. how so. Is there something wrong with my syntax. I paste the entire file

[minimig]
vga_scaler=1
video_mode=1600,64,192,304,1200,1,3,46,229500,+hsync,+vsync

Full Mister.ini:

Code: Select all

[MiSTer]

I can't help you directly with your problem, but I can say that I use a capital-M on Minimig. If you look in the /media/fat/_Computer/ directory, the core is (currently) Minimig_20220712.rbf. Thus, I use the exact core name "Minimig" in my ini, and it definitely works. Unix stuff is often case-sensitive, so maybe that might help.

I'm just setting 1920x1440 mode, however, video_mode=12.
