MAGIC ENGINE FX SOFTWARE

Looking back I think I was confusing what I needed with the sort of upscaler or whatever it's called that people need to hook old stuff to HD TVs. I assumed that an external converter would be expensive so initially I didn't even consider it. The desktop that I'm currently turning into a TV-based emulation station is 7 years old so when I decided to buy some stuff to hook it up to my CRTs I first went the graphics card route (compatible parts for a Compaq PC of this age are dirt cheap).

I'm curious because I have an external VGA to composite/s-video/etc. Quote from: Starscream on August 14, 2017, 04:17:31 PMI'd use Ootake if it weren't for the limited flexibility regarding CRT use. All around, it's a more accurate experience then Ootake and Magic Engine.Īnd if I remember correctly it's one of the only ways to play PC-FX games which I am interested to try.

I'm not willing to pay for used 20-30 year old software or the additional programs necessary to make unauthorized use of said software. QuoteWhile I don't like paying for emulators, I don't feel good about pirating said emulators either.įor me, there are certain things I'm willing to pay for and other things I'm not. Perhaps my initial snap judgement was a bit harsh. Quote from: KingMike on August 14, 2017, 12:52:08 PMI don't think the UI is that bad, aside from the giant load screen forcing you to load a game immediately.
