Squashed image with VGA game on Akura

Post by mr.kaeru »

Hi everyone,

Playing VGA only game through the Akura is usually working fine except with this one game: Treasure Strike.

As usual I'm doing the trick with the VGA switch but the image I get when the game launch is this:

After a quick email to Berharbros they suggested using a loader that would force the game to VGA. I could only try the PSO Boot disc, and the result is the same (not sure it matters but the PSO boot disc still required the trick with the Akura VGA switch).

Other games are fine, this is the only game that gives me this kind of image.

Does anyone have any idea if I can get a normal image with my current setup?

Thanks for your help :)

I see. :|

Is there an Akura games compatibility list somewhere? I quickly searched online but didn't find anything.

Does anyone with a similar setup (akura) with access to the same game (Treasure Strike) could have a look on their side and see if they get the same result?

Could my TV have something to do with this?

Thanks.
