Radeon HD 2400 - Multiple resolutions in game ini?

<< < (5/5)

Oh sorry I edited your post when trying to reply, it happens to me all the time...  :-[


--- Quote ---Only thing now is I have another build of MAME (non-groovymame) which is doing what the others did before changing that. Does this mean I should change the dotclock to the format you described above in the vmmaker.ini too?

Non-groovymame builds don't use the dotclock option at all, that's for sure.

There must be something we're not considering, that's for sure too. Maybe you created .inis with VMMaker for MAME in your previous setup and GroovyMAME was using them, and for some reason they weren't copied to the new one. You won't happen to preserve some logs from your previous setup, do you? :)

retrorepair:
Yeah those posted above  ;)

If you mean fully WORKING logs though then no but I can get them since I still have the other set up, I'm just borrowing the GFX card until I can get another one.

All the files are there though, I just copied all the directories from the first PC minus windows and program files and just bunged them all on the clean install. I just don't get why it changed and why changing the dot clock fixed it. I guess it's overriding a global that's giving me the issue with the other mame build and I assume other 15k emulators.

Calamity:
Yes I meant fully working logs from your other system, it's no important anyway, just out of curiosity :)

I bet the other MAME build just doesn't know what to do with your double-wide resolutions, and it's defaulting to interlaced modes.

What's surprising indeed is that your other system worked at all.

Question is, how do I get it to do what I want?

It's only for one system anyway so I guess the answer is tell mame what resolution to use.

retrorepair:
Out of interest, will many MAME games use 1280x240? I had to modify the h front porch and h back porch from 7 and 16 to 1 and 1 to get it wide enough to use for 320x240 in this other build of MAME!

This is posted as much out of curiosity on my part as it is to remind me what I changed when it all goes wrong later on  8)
