MAME running faster than 60/60
« on: September 03, 2004, 03:26:10 pm »
Some of my games run faster than 60/60 even though I'm throttling. Is there a way to resolve this issue. Last night, Zaxxon was running 75/60 with frameskip set to 0.

I was using Mame 0.56 (dos version) on the old Arcade@Home 0.37b.

Thanks.

You *sure* throttle is on?  Frameskip may be 0, but throttle is another thing.  Hit F10 during gameplay.

Some of the other video options can also make the games run fast too, can't recall which ones, but I have done the same thing before.

Make sure that you don't have Sync to Monitor Refresh checked.  I just tested on my machine and as my screen refresh is 75 the game was 75/60.  
Throttling off would see the framerates constantly change.
