I don't remember which version it was that they added RAVE support, but it's worth checking out. It stretches to fit the screen, and blurs the edges of the pixels. There was almost no performance loss on my G3/300 B&W, and the picture looked tons better. |

Ive been running MacMAME (dont know which version) on an old G3 PPC and it only fills about half of the screen. I have the machine currently running Tiger for the usb modem support. |

Set MacMame as the default app for .zip files, then put shortcuts to all your ROMs in the Launcher Items folder. I had mine in alphabetized subfolders. I also had an Other Apps subfolder with things like iTunes (4) in it. Best MacMame interface by far. --- End quote --- I've got MAME setup to run automatically at startup so I'm not sure why to put the ROMs in the Launcher. :dunno --- Quote from: NoOne=NBA= on January 27, 2009, 12:56:07 am ---I don't remember which version it was that they added RAVE support, but it's worth checking out.

Some other games I tried (like asteroids) take up nearly the full screen. MsPacman could use some stretching but it doesn't look like I'll be able to take advantage of RAVE. |

Not sure how it works or what it does but I dropped it from the MAME 0.36a Pluggin folder into my extensions. Now what I did next, I'm not sure if I could have done the same thing before I added the RAVE extension. I found I could get Ms Pacman and various other games to display full screen in cocktail mode, 2 different ways. Either set the MAME video at 3 X 3 and the monitor/screen at 1024x768 75hz. Or set at 2 X 2 and 640x480 117 hz. The 3 X 3 settings is better when not running MAME so I'm sticking with that. I am psyched! I'm leaning towards getting a Mag-Stik Plus Ball-Top but... |
