It's getting built in the room. Everything was designed to be disassembled. The panels are all sitting in it's final resting place right now, just setting up a paint booth outside and they'll be sprayed and moved back in before assembly. It'll be setup right next to my DrumMania setup I built last year

Nice 

Beautiful

Thank you! Then it is probably just a misconfiguration, will look into it.

Mame 0265 build failed on bookworm as well, same output as posted above more or less

Have you tried playing games with those 4 buttons for directional control?

It does not seem like it will function like a D pad. A D pad is small enough to just roll your thumb over.

Vanguard has a button layout like that for shooting. It totally sucks.

I hope it works okay for you.

Hey bud, sorry for the late reply. I've been using the tool called SketchUp for the plans. It has a bit of a learning curve.

They have a free online version that runs in your browser which I've linked above. You need to create an account through. However, they're last Windows version that was free is "Sketchup Make 2016" which is actually what I use. You'd have to find a download for it through. It might just be the 2016 pro version without a license code.

The cabinet is complete except for custom software that I've been slowly coding. I was hoping to have it done, but I'll work on posting pictures.

Building myself had saved me $1-2k versus buying one, and I have far better components inside as well as better material. I actually have a doc that has all of my costs which I can post as well. I'll work on getting final shots and posting here this weekend.

Yes, I'm just telling you how to make groovymame synchronize properly in that specific case (also add "autosync 0" to mame.ini, btw).

Didn't tell you how to make groovymame pick that video mode since I thought you already knew how to do that.

Your OS will be reporting your custom resolution by 3 integer values, e.g. 640x480@110. So you have to force that mode through the resolution option, e.g. -resolution 640x480@110

That assumes the option -switchres is enabled. But enabling switchres requires you to define a monitor preset that is compatible with the mode you expect to set. This is by design to block unwanted frequencies. So it's not that simple. I'd need more information about the resolution you created.

Since you just mentioned "my graphics card" without a label I'm assuming it's not a supported AMD card, correct? If this is the case, you could just run baseline mame without the switchres complication.

I have it running on 8 dedicated machines

Started spraying today. The cheapo HVLP seems pretty decent, but doesn't do the greatest job with the BIN primer I'm using. More overspray than I'd like. Not really a big deal since the stuff sands ridiculously well. The paint itself will be much less frustrating. Needing ammonia to clean the gun so often is extremely wasteful and time consuming, whereas the actual spraying takes no time at all. This will likely take quite some time as I don't have anywhere nice to let panels dry other than my makeshift booth, and I can't do many at once due to the overspray. Got 2 panels primed after work today, starting with all the low importance items that won't be visible.
