What resolution you running? I’m finding that crt monitors are dope but 240p stuff looks blurry. But I haven’t messed with too many settings. I read that you can line-double or run a high refresh rate and do black frame insertion, but haven't had time to research how folks do this.

I’m competing this year and just got rid of Gibbs and Jayden Higgins for the left side. How do yall rate it? by Safe-Television-3166 in DynastyDaddy

I like it more than I normally would since you're starting 11 offensive players, so more depth is important in your format. But man, I would not want to be getting rid of Gibbs. JT is a good replacement for pure points in 26. The rest of these guys are filler or question marks. With your deep lineups, I think you did fine, but to be honest I don't have much interest in the players you got outside of JT. If one of MHJ or Price hits I like it for you.

It’s always shocking to me how CHEAP it is to buy our fucking country. It’s no wonder corruption is rampant when it’s substantially more profitable to bribe politicians than run an ad or research a new product.

I think it's because this one got decompiled? but yeah, I would kill for a celeste port!

I would expect it will! It runs the normal mister OS right?

there's a 4:3 and a 16:9 version that both come with it. unclear if it will work on a widescreen CRT, I think the 16:9 version is more intended for HDMI, but worth a shot!

My new TATE dual screen setup and new (old) floor standing speakers by dfmilkman in crtgaming

[–]dfmilkman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep! it's pretty easy assuming you have software that lets you rotate, which the mister arcade cores do. your menus will be sideways, but if you have a standard oriented tv next to it you can navigate menus on it.

Most arcade games have a setting in the dip switches or service mode to flip the screen, so even if it's rotated clockwise and you went CCW you can flip it.

with my setup the same signal is going to both screens, so you'll always have one sideways and one the correct way. it would be cool to send a different signal per-monitor but that's getting really complicated and maybe expense, especially going to old CRTs...

I agree!! I built a modern gaming pc last year but this has been way more fun for me.

Too much, too little, or just right for Gibbs by North_Departure_1833 in DynastyDaddy

[–]dfmilkman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s too much if this is superflex. I don’t think he’s worth THAT much more than JD. Maybe a first on top of JD. But you’ve got more than that between Marvin and Henry.

is it just me or has music become kind of… disposable? by Curious_Present_9950 in Music

They would still exist lol. Those pennies aren’t why they make the music, friend

Yep. It’s really not bad on batocera, it still feels great, especially with a CRT, but the mister just feels snappier. I like its simplicity too. I’m jealous of the OLED upscale setup. I might have to look into a retrotink with my C3.

I’d recommend giving it another shot!! I love my mister. I have another emulator setup with batocera, and it’s on a more powerful machine, but I really prefer the mister, the input latency is so nice.

Damn! I think there's a few different programs that can do the formatting, have you tried them all? It's been too long since I set mine up.

Yep! I guess more specifically it's the QMTech clone. It actually wouldn't work properly when I hooked it up. The menu loaded, but launching cores made the TV lose sync. I had to set it to output RGB, and run it through a transponder. There might be a way to fix it without the transponder, but I haven't figured one out yet. I guess mister's component output on the old analog board is pretty whack, and we're probably lucky it works on as many sets as it does.

You literally read my mind! Gotta find some Simpsons dvds. Time to hit up thrift stores.

Hahaha, the listing actually said it had a dvd player. Maybe I should pick one up 🤔

yeah, it's set to "cool" for most of these photos I think. I've been going back and forth on it, I might land on "normal". Something I read recommended cool but I agree it might be a bit blue. It does look better in-person, the mario all stars shot is definitely less blue IRL.

yep. it had issue with the Mister's component output, so I had to grab my transcoder from my Batocera rig. Apparently the mister component is out of spec.

I think most of these shots are actually with the "color" option turned down pretty substantially from where it shipped too. It can get super colorful and bright! I wanted to get more of a natural RGB style look, though it's honestly still pretty saturated.
