Thanks but im having many issue with sm3 games.Laggy graphics and some games unplayable.

 

i5 with 16gb ram/NVidia GTX 960M.

No idea why.

I have worse specs and no issue here. Try dropping the resolution to 720p. What do you mean by laggy graphics?

it would be good if you share those ini files directly?

Already done it with control reference images. Everything has been done with this build. Enjoy

[Sega Model 3 - Supermodel Controls Reference and Pre Configuration for DINPUT. List of Inputs for Mouse and DINPUT Controller Buttons]

WARNING: YOUR MILAGE MAY VARY. Not all DINPUT controllers have the same input ID tags in Supermodel and in general.
I have used a PS4 controller to make this list and pre configuration. Your inputs may not be the same.

If you have a standard twin stick configuration controller, all of the directional inputs (D-Pad, Both Stick Directions, and all Axes) should be the same across all DINPUT controllers. It's only the buttons and triggers that can differ with their ID Tags.
 

I hate using the cmd remapping tool in Supermodel. Updating the ini directly is my preferred way to remap my controls.

So I have logged down and provided a list of all the button inputs for DINPUT controllers and their respective input tags for the Supermodel ini.

You can use this as reference to aid in remapping your own controls and also copy and paste. Please make sure if you are mapping to the second controller to change JOY1 to JOY2.

I'm also going to provide the input section only of my ini file with everything pre configured which you can insert into your ini file. Please make sure to insert the text accordingly to how the original ini file looked. Make a copy of your original ini file for reference and backup.
 

DINPUT BUTTONS/CONTROLS = SUPERMODEL INPUT ID TAGS

PLEASE NOTE: L2 can show up as both JOY1_RXAXIS_POS and JOY1_BUTTON7 in Supermodel. With JOY1_BUTTON7 being the digital input version of L2, and JOY1_RXAXIS_POS being the analogue version. R2 also does the same thing. Your controller may be one or the other, or both. If you have both (like I have pre configured for here) you want to set L2 as JOY1_RXAXIS_POS and R2 as JOY1_RYAXIS_POS for games that require or work best with analogue input. This ensures analogue is being used for e.g. the throttle and brake. For all other games that you want to set L2 and R2, use the digital input version (L2 = JOY1_BUTTON7, R2 = JOY1_BUTTON8) as this can be more responsive for things like shooters, for e.g. Virtual On 2. ONLY USE THE DIGITAL OR ANALOGUE VERSION OF THE INPUT. NOT BOTH. THE REMAPPER WILL CONFIGURE BOTH. 

Square = JOY1_BUTTON1
X = JOY1_BUTTON2
Circle = JOY1_BUTTON3
Triangle = JOY1_BUTTON4

L1 = JOY1_BUTTON5
R1 = JOY1_BUTTON6

L2 = JOY1_RXAXIS_POS (for analogue e.g. racing games) or JOY1_BUTTON7 (for digital button input e.g. shooters)
R2 = JOY1_RYAXIS_POS (for analogue e.g. racing games) or JOY1_BUTTON8 (for digital button input e.g. shooters)

Select = JOY1_BUTTON9
Start = JOY1_BUTTON10

L3 = JOY1_BUTTON11
R3 = JOY1_BUTTON12

D-PAD Down = JOY1_POV1_DOWN
D-PAD Left = JOY1_POV1_LEFT

Left Stick RIGHT = JOY1_XAXIS_POS

Right Stick UP = JOY1_RZAXIS_NEG
Right Stick DOWN = JOY1_RZAXIS_POS

This can be mitigated by using dead zone for the x and y axis with the following GLOBAL options added to the .ini file. 5% seems to do the trick for me without noticing in other games

InputJoy1XDeadZone = 5
InputJoy1YDeadZone = 5

One thing I have different is for Star Wars Trilogy.  My brain works differently for moving left and right (no comments from the peanut gallery please. lol) so I inverted the InputAnalogJoyX

Ahh thanks man. Are you using controller or mouse? Using the mouse in the shooting sections is fine with nothing inverted (up is up etc). However for the light saber battles it is inverted on the y axis, left is right and vice versa. 
EDIT: I see that you have inverted the controller Y axis which will fix my issue as I want to use the controller for the lightsabre battles anyway

Discovered this issue this morning. chased my tail for an hour but figured out its the stick interfering with the input. Brand new controller too, no dead zone with Supermodel me thinks.

[16:9 Sega Dreamcast via Flycast - Norms True Anamorphic Widescreen Project]

So I have caught the widescreen bug for games that were made before the widescreen revolution. This is mostly 3D games of the 5th and 6th Console Generation. Whilst there are quite a few games that have native widescreen support there are hacks and cheats to unlock the aspect ratio to display a true Anamorphic 16:9 Widescreen image. NO IN GAME STRETCHING HERE. 

What is True Anamorphic 16:9? - When you set a 4:3 game to run 16:9 and that title doesn't support it, the image will be stretched. True Anamorphic is adjusted for the 16:9 space so everything is rendered and displayed with no stretching. There are 3 ways to achieve this below.
 

Native Widescreen? - Some games actually have widescreen support from the older generations. I was surprised to discover Goldeneye has native widescreen support, which would have made 4 player deathmatching wayyyyy better.
Cheat Codes? - For games that have no Widescreen support there are some coding geniuses out there that have made easily implementable cheat codes to achieve Anamorphic 16:9. A small number of games need directly patching however most use cheat codes. These are made on a per game basis and yield far better results than Emulator Hacks.
Emulator Hacks? Most emulators and cores now have a "Widescreen Hack" option. This option only works on a handful of games and is generally not the way to go as pop-in is really obvious outside the 4:3 space.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND EMULATOR HACKS ARE NOT CHEAT CODES. THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE.

POP-IN

Pop-in is the enemy of getting games to run in 16:9. Because games were made to display in 4:3, anything that is displayed outside of that space will pop-in and out unless something is done to manipulate the code to render everything in the 16:9 space. This is due to devs simply not needing to use recourses on displaying anything outside 4:3 in those days. As I mentioned above, emulator hacks have terrible pop-in outside the 4:3 space. This is why cheat codes are the way to go if a game doesn't have native widescreen support. Cheat codes generally just work....... but not always.

UI, HUD, FMV & Menu Stretching

When using any widescreen solution there is more often than not, some 2D elements that will be stretched or not adjusted to display in the 16:9 space e.g speed dials in racers. Even native widescreen games have 2D asset stretching as the devs didn't adjust any or some of these elements. There are some examples where this doesn't happen, mostly with cheat codes as the coding genius behind it figured out how to resize or move UI elements. Sometimes selection cursors wont line up with what you are selecting as a result of the clashing 4:3 2D assets and adjusted 16:9 assets. FMV is generally stretched also, but not always.
These are really small issues and not deal breakers. Just a small price to pay for glorious in game 16:9.

Regional Differences / 60Hz

Some titles for PAL/JP regions are easier/better to make codes/patches for over their USA counterparts. I had to change up my set to accommodate widescreen. I will be listing what region version is needed. Most games run at 60Hz thanks to codes but if not it will be in the notes section on the list.

What am I doing? What is the project all about?

Testing. Lot's of time consuming testing. Not all cheat codes work and have noticeable pop-in, ruining the experience. Emulator hacks work on very few games. I am testing most if not all games for certain platforms to see what works correctly with no pop-in using cheat codes or emulator hacks. Also finding out what region version works better as I have come across differences in pop-in. I am collating lists of working games with notes and presenting them to everyone to enjoy. These will be definitive up to date lists. For platforms like GC I will be providing ini's with the cheat codes to save everyone some time. If it has bad pop-in it gets cut.
I'm also trying to consolidate information.

Sega Dreamcast 16:9 Widescreen Games via Flycast List

The Flycast core has all of the up to date Widescreen Cheat Codes hard coded to the core itself. No copy and pasting. All you need to do is go to Quick Menu -> Options -> Emulation Hacks -> and enable "Widescreen Cheats".
Please make sure "Widescreen Hacks" is NOT ENABLED.

You will need to set RetroArch itself to 16:9. "Auto" won't work. YOU ONLY NEED DO THIS FOR NATIVE WIDESCREEN GAMES You can set the Flycast core resolution to how you want it. You may want to save an Game Options Override on a per game basis for RetroArch.

Here is the GitHub link to the widescreen cheats for the Flycast Core that I referenced. All available codes are present at this time - https://github.com/flyinghead/flycast/blob/master/core/cheats.cpp

It's not dead requests are just done by the "Feature Request" option located at the top of the forum under "Help & Support". There is however, already a request on the site that links to for this. I will say this is likely something not going to happen anytime soon, if at all (really do not want to say never as there is always a small chance, but it does look very slim) per a recent discussion on our moderator discord with our devs.

Cheers mate.

Is this thread dead? I would like to suggest the ability to rename media files to match the file name over LB's file naming system.

[Zpevdo.b trojan in latest LB installer]

I have simply tried launching LB on win 10 and got the same. I think this may need reporting or picking up by one of the devs.

[Turn off automatic renaming of media when changing a game title?]

On 4/10/2020 at 6:19 AM, sundogak said:

Media can be the title or the ROM name.  My entire MAME media set is the ROM name as well as my Pinball media. I have never had any issues with it picking up the media properly.  However, like Normchomsky noted, if you mess at all with title in edit dialog window it will update the media to LB title format (i.e., title with sequence number).  Like C-Beats noted, you cannot stop this behavior currently, although it has come up as a request (albeit a low polled/requested one). 

Admittedly, it is mostly with MAME where this come up with monthly media update packs in rom naming format.  With Pinball, the LB media DB isn't really setup for Pinball media, so again an edge case where media is typically provided outside LB in table/ROM format naming.  Not really the case for most other use cases. 

That's exactly what I mean. The reason for wanting to use the ROM name for the artwork is so I can change the name of the games and keep the filenames of the media the same. As I like to use LB as a database for my SBC's, ubiquitous file naming is essential. 

So an example of where I'd find this useful: For 2 and 4 game variants that appear together in a playlist or wherever, being able to change the game name to show which is which in the game title, without making my media useless outside of LB.

However I have just had a brain moment.......simply put your media into LB after you have done your game renaming. This avoids having to correct media filenames as you change game names, which is long. But this means having prior knowledge of this, so I hope the guys give the option, after they work down the list. It's the little nuances.    

[Turn off automatic renaming of media when changing a game title?]

I like to have my media organised to the filename of the rom/game.

I noticed when changing the game name in LB, it automatically changes the file names of all associated media. 

Is there a way to turn this off?

[Demul Sound Issues]

So I've been trying to get Demul to run correctly. It runs ok, but the sound is distorted like a youtube video from 2008, or like its drunk. It is a documented issue.

I made sure to set my graphics card to run on full performance with the demul.exe and still have the issue. I had read this was the fix as apparently windows doesn't think Demul needs a much as it does.

I'm on the most recent version. Using cdi. My specs are AMD 8350 - 2GB GTX Nvidia - 16gb DDR3. I would have thought this is enough to run it. Checking the usage through task manager shows hardly anything being used on the CPU or GPU. Reicast is working fine. 

The only other thing I can think is I dont have a driver or runtime or I have not set my graphics card to use demul correctly?? 

Any help greatly appreciated. 

[Adding games to an auto generated playlist.]

Cool, thanks guys. I thought I had seen it at some point. I did what Monkus said, as I have on many occasions.

[Adding games to an auto generated playlist.]

Just tried that, un-checking the auto populate doesn't get the playlist to appear when trying to add a game. Using different auto populate combinations to try and get them all and deleting the ones that spill over.

[Adding games to an auto generated playlist.]
