Groovy MAME presets with Brazilian TV compatible with PAL-M and NTSC

WOW. Rookie mistake. LOL.

Will do and get back to you. As Groovymame pack comes only with the executable file I assume I'll just execute it instead of mame.exe in the mame folder and voila. I`ll generate the mame.ini file and see what happens.

Thanks.
Marcelo.

Before we go on, just two things:

- Download the latest version of VMMaker, otherwise it won't be able to process MAME 0.146 XML properly: http://aburamushi.net/calamity/VMMaker_1.3c_Arcade_OSD_1.3b.rar

- Backup your current mame.ini and create a new one using GroovyMAME, otherwise you won't have access to its features. To do this, from command line type: groovymame.exe -cc

Then in mame.ini use the same monitor_specs you have in vmmaker.ini

DONE and hoooohey!! 115 modes recorded from 450+ found taken the similar ones.

I found some under scan and blurriness in some games so I think it's time to start further testing. The TV is NTSC / PAL-N / PAL-M compatible but I think once windows started in NTSC it will remain that way so maybe I'll get better results working with NTSC or PAL-M alone.

The Ddraw hiccups in sound remain... any thoughts?

Many Thanks.

That's odd. Please get a log of a game with sound hiccups, like this:

groovymame.exe romname -v -md 4 >romname.txt

Hi Calamity,

Sorry for the long time. I changed my system. I got an opportunity to purchase an used JAMMA arcade cabinet for $200 and bought it. The monitor is an arcade 29" and, although it's used, it's in good shape.

That said I'll just set your driver for "GENERIC" and run. Is that it? I'm not sure of the monitor's model but I'm pretty sure it's the most common 15 kHz SFII, KOF monitor. I don't believe it's gonna support 31 kHz and I'm afraid of testing and damaging it. Any tips?

Thank you and I'll report as soon as I get it running. I'm excited!

Regards.
