A couple HS probs

[glonq]

A couple things that I've noticed recently:

- Often when I exit MAME (0.126), I get a black screen instead of returning to HS. If I press ctrl-alt-del, I see that HS is still running.

- On a couple occasions, the current wheel and current theme get out of sync. For instance, JOUST might be highlighted on the wheel, but HS shows the theme for GALAGA instead. Restarting HS solves the prob. I think pressing LEFT or RIGHT on the joystick (to spin the wheel) also resolved it once.

I'm running HS in fullscreen (1680x1050) in SINGLE mode (MAME only), with about fifty themes.

Thanks. Keep up the good work!

I seem to have fixed the first prob by using hyperlaunch. It also solves the prob where you see the desktop after a game exits. What does HL do, anyways? I can't seem to find any docs on it.

For one running HS at anything more than 1024x768 causes HS to upscale images. This requires a lot of memory to do this and your out of synch issues are memory related. Closing HS frees up that used memory which is why it works fine after closing and reloading.

Are you sure? I've got 2GB (granted, Vista probably hogs half of it!). Hopefully this prob gets fixed or improved in the next HS release.

I'll try a lower rez in the meantime.
