MartyNg:

Bump!

I don't believe no one has any pointers here! Paypal bucks to anyone that can help me get this working!  ;D

releasedtruth:

Man, you've got it rough. I'm not that far into my build to help, but whatever you learn may help us both!

MartyNg:

Seriously guys.....none of you have any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Am I missing the obvious and people are simply ignoring me? My cabinets are taking up a lot of room in my basement for not doing anything!  :)



wpcmame:

Start mame with the -v parameter

e.g. mame gauntlet -v

Mame will then list all resolutions available and also say which one it selected.
something like
320x240x60
640x480x60
800x600x60
...

You can then try to force it to use a specific resolution by doing

mame gauntlet -r (one of the resolutions above)



MartyNg:

No matter what I do, all the games still seem to load at 640x480! (According to the Powerstrip on-screen display)

PLEEEEEASE HELP ME! I'm begging! I'm having about 50 people over in a few weeks for a housewarming party, and this cabinet, if working, will be a SMASH HIT!  Everyone's looking forward to playing it all night, and I'm getting a little nervous. I'm running out of time! Help!!  :o

Could the powerstrip OSD not be correct? Here's my -v when running metal Slug 4:
