A  little more respectable.

Have you considered a Pi?

Ah yes, you have to turn cheats on in the mame.ini to see the CPU slider.
(under CORE MISC OPTIONS)

Code: [Select]

cheat                     1The slider doesn't show % decimals so it can be difficult to adjust with precision, hence also quoting the slider value recorded in the game's config file (garou.cfg find it in the cfg folder)
There probably aren't many games needing super precise OC, but it's a good thing to know.

I think the neogeo driver must be among the most correct now, at least code-wise, but since MAME lacks wait states emulation even the best drivers will run games inaccurately, even with a proper 15khz setup.
To get 'grail' like things like wait states emulation or beam racing I think they'd need to rewrite almost everything, huge part of the emulator, drivers, even redump games.
So you know...MAME redone almost from scratch...will never happen. Or we'll be so old we won't care anymore (prolly already the vast majority of ppl don't care/know about accuracy, and the arcades nostalgia is seriously fading with the growing numbers of new emu users who didn't grow up thru the same era)

Anyway, we can hack like this, guess it's better than nothing eh. ^^

My portables are all screwed up.  Really need to get on that myself.  I've been aiming to install a cap kit and a rechargeable battery for my gamegear as well, but then I remembered there's nothing on it that I actually want to play.  I'm going to get my arcade cabinet back in a playable state this summer as well, mark my words. 

Needed the mental distraction so been doing all kinds of dumb stuff on the old Gameboys.  My DS Lite has now been flashed to skip the health warning screen and can now boot NDS games off Slot 2 (the GBA slot).  Played around with the Gameyob emulator.  Can't get it working on my Supercard, but it runs great on the R4.  Supercard has Goomba on it but the image is roughly the size of a postage stamp.

Totally pointless exercise, but a nice distraction.

 

Mine's tiny though... only 12" x 12".

Hey.  Thats one square foot!   

Ugh I've gotta put in more drainage around my workshop (it's in a building outside).  Normally we get a little bit of flooding in the spring but this year it's been practically underwater.  I had the good sense to build it on cinderblocks, but that doesn't help me actually wade through the water to get in.  Mine's tiny though... only 12x12. 

I always thought this had to be fixed via emulation 
How does one set the OC in mame? When i go to the slider controls tab, all i see is the frame delay option which can be tuned from 0 to 10 only.

Sales figures don't lie... the best selling games on the pc by far are either single player or online multiplayer only.  The only exception I can think of in recent memory is streets of rage 4.  I would say fighting games are an exception, but recent games have been coded in such a way that you press A on the gamepad you wish to use just before the start of a match. 

I have a 1950 something Craftsmen jointer I am going to need help refurbishing.

If only I knew a guy who loves tools, old things, refurbishing, and beer.

and has a shop 1 square foot bigger than yours..
