What options do you tweak in MAME to speed a game up?
BadMouth:
The couple threads on benchmarking have me wondering.
What settings in MAME do you tweak in mame to wring out a little extra speed when a game is almost running at full speed?
RayB:
Everything "extra". Graphics effects, sound quality ...
shan1784:
Are you speaking of setting in the mame.ini / command line options? If so I'd be very interested to know this as well... I've been reading up on all of this but I still don't know what really makes a difference.. Everything I've done really hasn't made a huge difference in the performance as of yet...
RayB:
If you do it through MAME32's UI interface, it's easier to get a feel for what options do what and have an impact. Then when you're satisified, you can look at the INI file itself and see how they are all configured.
DaveMMR:
I know changing the sample rate for me sometimes help enough to stop any "stuttering", but I'd be curious to hear some more suggestions as well...
