Soft-15KHz

Post by dmauro »

I was thinking about using this instead of ArcadeVGA so that I can use my EVGA 8800 GTS 320MB card instead and be able to play Naomi games. Has anyone tried Soft-15KHz with this card, and how does it work? What drawbacks are there to using Soft-15KHz instead of ArcadeVGA?

edit: I found something about Geforce 8 series cards not doing lower resolutions. Is this still the case with the latest version of Soft-15KHz?

hehe, I'll be running other stuff too of course (and Soft-15KHz does 31KHz as well).

It's coming along pretty nicely. Check out the SRK threads.

So I guess if my Geforce 8 card won't work, does anyone have experience with cards that have enough power for Naomi, and work with Soft-15KHz?

I tried this out now that I'm home and I definitely was able to display my desktop at 321x240 with QuickRes.

For the record, Naomi can display in low-res as well. Dip switch 1 FTW!
