Title: Force V Sync on ArcadeVGA??
Post by: lettuce on December 02, 2006, 12:34:40 pm

Is there a way you can force V sync so that it is on all the time for the ArcadeVGA card, and not Application controlled?

The VSYNC depends on the resolution / frequency so what you have to do is set MAME to use the same single resolution for every game.

Well usually i use the tripple buffering to stop screen tearing, but mame doesnt allow that for GDI rendering, so i want to force V sync to prevent screen tearing

Couldn't you set 'syncrefresh 1' in all the ini files? You can use the MAME resolution tool to add extra values ini's.

Would that work though if your using the GDI rendering rather than D3D??
