MAME / Video Card support

Pages: << < (2/2)

MAME emulates all arcade hardware (including machines with 3D hardware) with your CPU, and probably always will.  Your video card is only used to copy the rendered image to your screen (and for some cool artwork manipulation).  This is why video card power is not that important to MAME.  You'll have to look to emulators like Nebula or Zinc if you want hardware optimized emulation of 3D games.

Thanks for pointing out Zinc, I have seen it a lot of times but never really played with it, it actually supported the tekken games and erghiz which were 2 of the ones I really wanted to play next to carnevil so im pretty happy
