I'm going to stick with 106 in my cabinet for the moment because I don't think the new changes in 107 are completely arcade monitor friendly yet. However, I'm seriously considering moving to an alternate build in the future. DOSMAME and AdvanceMAME are definite contenders, but I'm hoping there will be a derivative MAME build that keeps the old ddraw renderer as primary but otherwise sticks close to the stock Win32 MAME build. |

I think it will be at least 109 before all the kinks are worked out and I don't know if the ddraw stuff will ever work exactly like it did in the pre-107 builds. I'm definitely adopting a "wait and see" attitude on this one. I have my fingers crossed. |
