It appears I am going to need to shift gears a bit on the Moon Patrol Project: See > http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=10;action=display;threadid=20395 See > http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=4;action=display;threadid=22496 I am running ArcadeOS with Dos Mame and it appears I just don't have the video config granularity I need to get consistent results. What I have been advised to do is switch to Advanced Mame. To that end I have some general questions before I make the switch. If anyone can chime in with some input on any or all issues I would greatly appreciate it. Ok, Here goes - 1. Can I use arcadeOS with advanced mame or MUST I use advancemenu? (Yes) 4. How do I determine these settings for my advmame.rc file based on my monitor? Answer: Use the advcfg.exe utility. Pretty self explanitory. device_video_pclock device_video_hclock device_video_vclock 5. How do I enable sound? I have sound working in DOS, ArcadeOS, and DMAME, but it doesn't come on in AdvanceMAME? Answer: set the option in advmame.rc, "device_sound seal/sb" "seal" is the driver (must bi internal to advmame or in the advmame dir as I never loaded anything). the option "/sb" denotes soundblaster. I found this info in the "advdev.txt" file. Look there for other options. Also, during runtime (gameplay) you can hit the "~ ' " key to adjust volume (range = -40 to 0, 0 being the highest volume) with the arrow keys. --------------------------------------------------------- Saw this in another thread, just adding it here as I used it to get rid of the nags- Do you have this line in your advmame.rc file misc_quiet yes --------------------------------------------------------- 6. ArcadeOS cannot find roms???? I have edited the arcadeos.cfg and advmame.rc until my eyeballs hurt from the blue dos edit window. All my paths reflect reality, but since I have migrated files/roms/samples/etc from c:\mame to c:\advmame - Arcadeos cannot or will not list the roms?? Is there a file I need to regen or what? I got arcadeos to display the rom names but only by the dos name. Also, "gameinfo" has no info. On a whim I just tried copying xml2info.exe into my advmame dir. No change. |
