Lately, I'm having issues with artwork when using the patched and compiled Mame64.exe.
What happens is, that when I set video mode to standard 4:3 without any artwork, it saves this option one time, but then removes the lines from the .cfg file and at the next start, the game is back to default, which is usually not 4:3 but some artwork option that I obviously don't want as default.
Regular Mame not patched works fine.
Any options or anything new I've missed, or is anybody else also having this?

I am unable to reproduce this behaviour on SDL/Linux.
Which Mame version are you experiencing this problem?

I'm using Windows 7 64-bit, same thing happens in both 0173 and 0175. Haven't tested 0174. I think the issue started with 0173, but I'm not sure.

I can reproduce the problem.
ONLY the "view=" gets removed on subsequent runs.
As a workaround - Use an artwork lay file defining your video mode.
This may take some time to get fixed (GroovyMame may be suffering the same problem - It uses almost identical mechanism)
The problem I believe is the suppression of the loading patch.

What is the no nag option to disable the "There are known problems with this machine", White borders and loading messages.....?
The hiscore plugin appears to be fine, But the plugins function still requires bug fixes and the like - Though it is still perfectly usable.

Thanks for posting :applaud:
I have moved the "loading" messages patch, The game.cfg issue is resolved.
However, There may be unforeseen consequences........... Like other expected messages not showing.
So now would be a good time to give it a thorough testing.
Update: Patch hi_175b.txt removed, Use hi_175c.txt in the next post.
ozfalcon:
One unforeseen consequence has been found.
If using "-confirm_quit" then the exit dialog is clobbered.
This patch fixes the "-confirm_quit" dialog (And possibly others).
New (hi_175c.txt) patch still needs a thorough testing.
