Even better, would be to make the interlace/non-interlace state switchable at run-time by pressing a key. Default to the system lace state but allow the user to change it. |
 |
This would require to modify all installs and on several install significant modifications. The benefit would be in no relation to the efforts. So I think this cannot be accomplished. |

I understand each installer would need to support that option. But if WHDLoad had some infrastructure for it, then future installers could easily (depending on the game/demo) support that feature, if the installer writer wishes. Another related issue shows up when using a genlock. There, the user may want the Amiga video to be synced to the genlock video, which requires that the BPLCON0 ERSY bit be set. The simplest (but not very user-friendly) way could be a tooltype giving a value to OR with BPLCON0 values written by the game. Better would be some kind of global preference that the user can change before running the installer. There was a recent thread on EAB where someone tried using games with a genlock: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=71728 |

I will add a tag WHDLTAG_BPLCON0_GET to resload_Control. This will give the Slave a way to get the system bplcon0 and reuse ERSY/LACE. |

In 18.3 WHDLoad itself uses the system bplcon0 for custom init. Addtionally the kickemu was adapted to use it too. Slave using kickemu and will be reassembled should preserve lace/genlock now. An option to retrieve the system bplcon0 is present a long time in WHDLoad. So all that is all WHDLoad can do. To preserve lace/genlock the Slaves must support it, |
