Hi I've gone through a couple dozen games and Tempest is the only that's giving me a problem. It's too large for my TV. I used to use Mame32 and I had set the resolution to 800x600 there and it wrote it to a config file. Now, I'm using regular Mame and I'm not sure where I need to set the resolution for specific games. I looked at .\cfg\tempest.cfg and it looks like I should set it there, but I'm not sure of the syntax. My default mame.ini has resolution=auto and that seems to work for every game but Tempest. How can I set this to 800x600? Thanks. |

Fixed! Copy mame.ini to <romname>.ini and set the resolution there. The .\cfg\ folder seems to be just for controllers. This was helpful http://www.mameworld.net/easyemu/mameguide/mameconfig.htm Thanks. |

The mame resolution tool is a godsend here... Highly recommended. http://mamewah.mameworld.net/downloads.htm D- |

That way if you make a change in mame.ini, it will also affect <romname>. (Otherwise you need to make the change in both files.) |
