how to setup scanlines on mala and another question
« on: February 07, 2010, 10:27:39 am »
ok, i have mala running well, but i'm looking to get scanlines enabled on mala, as the cab i'm building is using an LCD.

also, is there a way to have artwork borders on vertical games while the game is being played, to cover up the black bars?  if so, where do i grab those?

thanks!

[romsite link redacted]
[FREE] MAME v0.136 - Extras (Alternates)
[FREE] MAME v0.136 - Extras (Core)
registration is free
i believe the one you want is the mame extra's core but not sure
the description of the core is

Extras (Core)
|_ artwork
|_ bkground <--- previously from the (Alternates) torrent (Unzipped)
|_ cabinets
|_ cpanel
|_ ctrlr <--- previously from the (Alternates) torrent (Unzipped)
|_ flyers
|_ icons
|_ marquees
|_ pcb
|_ samples
|_ snap
|_ titles

but as you can see from my pic below u still get black bars along the side and your paying area seems to decrease

is there not just an option to turn them on/off?  like in the NES emulator?

ATI Catalyst Control Center should allow you to add scanlines to a monitor... Assuming you have an ATI video card, of course. ::)
