addedIn this version I also added support up to 500hz screen refresh rate (I think that the max in the market is 480hz (?)), and a lot of launch parameters too, here's the list:
added"-use_old_input" = Use old input reading architecture (in case you prefer it over the new one). "-disable_joysticks" = Disable all joystick detection (useful to use external joy mappers). "-allow_unknow_joysticks" = Try force compatibilty to detect unknow devices. "-disable_merged_dpad" = Disable the DPAD and Left Analog input union.
changed"-no_sound" = Disable sound processing. "-disable_bug_support" = Disable the feedback window and crash report when game fails.
