I know this sounds silly, but I cannot get Pacman to run smooth. I have more than enough computer, I am using a WG VGA monitor (640x480 at refresh of 60), and the latest mame command line build. No matter what setting I use, the game studders from time to time. Not the audio, just the video isn't smooth. I've tried waitsync, triplebuffer, match refresh, and synch refresh. What am I missing here? There use to be a build called SmoothMame that forced all the drivers to refresh at 60. I think it was also called TV Mame. I know the problem is that Pacman wants to refresh at 61. Does anyone know the correct settings or can point me to another build that fixes this problem? Thanks, southpaw |

Sounds like frame skipping may fix the issue. John |

I thought that frame skipping only helped when there was not enough CPU power to get a game to run at 100%. I did try it and it didn't run smooth. I was looking at the Doc's for one of the latest u's released. Looks like there were some core changes to video handling that will be included with Mame 104. Does anyone know if the changes fix the problem I am having? Thanks, Southpaw |
