beyond x5 resolution might still need some work?

just tried build 0.0.0.145 and tried to run it at x6 res and it wont do any thing when ok is clicked  this is with a nvidia gtx 640 and an amd 8370 fx cpu on both open gl 3.2 and softraserizers. now when i go to anything higher it crashes.

i also tried it on my super computer with a 6900k intel cpu with a gtx 980 ti.  switching resolution in game works up to x6  any higher crashes the emulator again.

now if i change the resolution before i start a rom i can get it to work on x7 resolution's.

one other note if i try to dump avi wile on x6 the desmume screen freezes but i still have audio and the game is still running.


btw with these higher resolution options i think direct 3d mode will need to be implemented to handle anything above x6 at a decent speed.

opengl is as capable as direct3d

are you using a magnification filter? now that I think about it, that'd be a good reason to have not gone above 5x. Those are all implemented with static buffers sized only for 5x resolution at the maximum. they may work or they may crash unpredictably above 5x as the buffer gets overflowed.

oh? i always thought direct3d was more efficient than opengl.  well anyways, no im not using any magnification filters.  i haven't used those since the introduction of higher resolution.

the static sized buffers might still be affecting things even for a "none" filter

Try a 64-bit nightly build, they appear to be more stable at higher resolutions.

I can record at x16.

Re: beyond x5 resolution might still need some work?

thats makes sense the 32 bit limit...  the autobuild needs to have a 64 bit download  link

who said anything about a 32bit limit? that has nothing to do with the situation

ok well whatever the reason the 64 bit build works in every resolution. i figured the 32 bit version hits the 4gb limit or something.

32-bit builds go up to x16 now.   

PR #147 and LARGEADDRESSAWARE.
