| Mame Frame Skipping |
| (1/1) |
| IG-88:
I was just wondering. I am running a bartop with some very old hardware. It has Game Launcher with DOS mame v.55 and I was just wondering if there is a way to have individual games set with different frame skipping rates and be able to keep them that way. For example Asteroids Deluxe runs great on this system but the original Asteroids "studders" really bad unless I skip about 5 or so frames. Don't understand why but it does. Only problem is when I exit the game and come back to it the frame skip is back to auto again. Any suggestions? |

Copy your mame.ini and paste it in the same folder. Rename it astdelux or whatever the name of your rom is. Change the lines autoframeskip to 0 and frameskip to 5. Lauch your game and press F11 to see if the frameskip is set at 5. You can also change the samplerate to something lower to see if it increases performance. ### mame.ini ### ### Frontend Related ### clones 1 ### Windows path and directory options ### rompath roms samplepath samples cfg_directory cfg nvram_directory nvram memcard_directory memcard input_directory inp hiscore_directory hi state_directory sta artwork_directory artwork snapshot_directory snap cheat_file cheat.dat history_file history.dat mameinfo_file mameinfo.dat ### Windows video options ### autoframeskip 0 frameskip 5 waitvsync 0 triplebuffer 0 window 0 ddraw 1 hwstretch 1 resolution auto refresh 0 scanlines 0 switchres 1 switchbpp 1 maximize 1 keepaspect 1 matchrefresh 0 syncrefresh 0 dirty 1 throttle 1 full_screen_brightness 0.000000 frames_to_run 0 effect none screen_aspect 4:3 ### Input device options ### hotrod 0 hotrodse 0 mouse 0 joystick 0 steadykey 0 ### Mame CORE video options ### bpp 0 norotate 0 ror 0 rol 0 flipx 0 flipy 0 debug_resolution auto gamma 1.000000 ### Mame CORE vector game options ### antialias 1 translucency 1 beam 1.000000 flicker 0.000000 ### Mame CORE sound options ### samplerate 44100 samples 1 resamplefilter 1 sound 1 volume 0 ### Mame CORE misc options ### artwork 1 cheat 0 debug 0 # playback <NULL> (not set) # record <NULL> (not set) log 0 ### Configuration options ### readconfig 1 verbose 0 |
