Wonder Boy Arcade (Game Graphics)

[ralfjoneskof]

I have a question about the Wonder Boy game. I was having frame rate issues until I used OBS Studio. This greatly improved the recording quality. But when I tried to record the game, I noticed some frame-by-frame rate errors while the game is running, and the scenery shakes during playback (at the beginning of the game in the forest, it's easier to notice the trees shaking). I disabled the best filters in the emulator, but it didn't solve the problem. What could be the issue? I haven't found any patches to improve this.

I'd like to help but i'm not sure i understand what you are trying to explain.
Are you talking about video recording ?

Hi @ralfjoneskof,
Unfortunately, I don't know how to fix this problem.
I get the same problem when I try to record Wonder Boy with OBS from MAME.

Maybe the only way is to record inputs with replay feature, then play it back while recording to avi, then use ffmpeg to adjust it to 4:3 or something like that.

best regards,

Hi @dinkc64, @barbudreadmon I haven't found a solution for that either. But I'm recording the gameplay using OBS Studio + fbneo and editing the video in parts to unify it at the end. It was the only way I found, and that way the graphics don't get shaky in some parts of the game.
