Not sure about this, but why do capcom games have such an odd resolution? I recently downloaded a copy of smoothmame and tweaked it to get rid of the tearing and artifacts present in many of the street fighter games. I has worked extremely well, its just the resolution seems strange to me.

OT: I've never seen the "tearing" you describe. I fooled around with Direct3D though...
Only time I might have seen it is in XMEN VS Street Fighter.
Did SmoothMAME really help all that much? could you,, link me?

Smoothmame can be found here: http://www.zophar.net/mame.html
just scroll down until you see it. For me, it cleared up all the graphics issues I was having. If you want, I can post the video portion of the .ini file I am using with it.

I can some tearing occassionally in street fighter alpha 3. Could you post those settings?
-
I did some searching, and if your CPU isn't real old, and your computer can handle triple buffering, this all but makes the tearing go away in MAME
(the game I had the most trouble with was Street Fighter Alpha 3, and all the tearing went away)
But smooth mame reworks some things and runs all games at , uh, what was it,, well anyway, it runs them all at the same rate, instead of their odd rate.

Yeah that is part of the problem. I am running on a computer that can just barely run SFAIII. It does run fine, but I can not turn on any fancy video stuff and the sound gets staticy once in a while. (The cpu is a P3 733 w/ MAME .66)

That computer barely runs it?!?!? Memory must be low.... or, something! I've run it on slower systems than that without tearing!
