Title: ArcadeVGA M.A.M.E. Resolution Tool v1.02 Released!
Post by: Minwah on July 12, 2004, 04:29:31 pm: Just a small release to make the prog compliant with MAME v0.84 (but retains compatibility with older versions)...

One thing to note, if you have used previous versions, you may need to delete AMRT.CFG from the installation folder (ie if it exists, delete it).

You can modify the ArcadeVGA.txt file if you like - just add on any extra supported resolutions...

OK, what version of MAME are you using? If <0.84 make sure you tick the 'Legacy MAME' option.

Also, the list no longer auto-generates (because when you select your MAME exe you may not have set Legacy MAME yet). So you need to hit View > Generate Native Res List (or whatever).

Let me know if that doesn't work...

Really? What did you change it to? Was it the spaces it didn't like?

You can modify the ArcadeVGA.txt file if you like - just add on any extra supported resolutions...

I thought all the possible arcadevga resolutions were already included in the ArcadeVGA.txt file, or are there more?

Yes you're right...I can't remember if 800x600 is in the standard ArcadeVGA.txt or not, but I think that is the only extra res. that the D9200 will do.
