Tekken in Mame?
« on: September 22, 2008, 05:08:35 pm »
I'm trying to get tekken to run in mame and the color bars are as far as I get
I thought I'd be able to at least get it to run slowly

does anyone have tekken running in mame?
how about full speed?

Should I shut up and get Zinc already ;)

I have a 2ghz Core 2
Nvidia 7300
1g ram

P4 2.4 single core , forget what vid card is in there, 1G of ram
it runs SLOW  you are better off with Zinc
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

a psx emu may be the best bet for full performance.

I'm running an Athlon64 5000X2 and Tekken and Tekken2 run at full speed, but Tekken 3 is about 1/2 speed.

I haven't had much luck setting up Zinc correctly, so I can't recommend that.

Oddly, while Zinc runs Tekken 3 well on my P4 1.8 ghz system, it barely runs Tekken at all.  It runs at about 70% with MAME on my system, but it's choppy as heck with Zinc.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Which version of MAME are you running?

Depending on the full spec of your PC, try using a pre-0.106 build (0.100-0.105) as emulation was decent by then, but still using the old graphics engine. The reason it's freezing at the vertical bars is because the frame rate is so slow it is not even getting to the first frame of the game. Try turning off any stretching, visual effects etc. I've got it running decent with auto frameskip on a P4 2.4Ghz with good on-board graphics.

Failing that, that spec is perfect to run pSX Emu, which emulates most of those great PS1 fighters brilliantly; particularly my favourite Souledge.

I'm going to have a PSX emulator on there anyway so I'll check that out too!

Thanks for the info!!
