ArcadeVGA 3000 -> Groovymame fails: Switchres: Failed opening etc.

<< < (2/2)

If you want to force vertical games to run stretched to fit a 640x480 (or higher) screen, check out the last couple posts in this thread about using a vertical.ini file...

With an ArcadeVGA 3000 (at least under windows) you can't set custom monitor settings.

Just install the Ultimarc ArcadeVGA 3000 drivers and make sure that you've installed/configured the Ultimarc tri-sync utility properly.

GroovyMAME will do the best with whatever resolutions are available to it.

Hi Krick,

Thanks! What should I do with the ini file config.ini, just leave it standard?

Hi Krick,

When I use the correct ini file, I get the resolution I like to have. I have to use the sync button of my monitor to adjust. This works fine!

## pacman ##

screen0 \\.\DISPLAY1
switchres 1
hwstretch 0
bezel 0
backdrop 0
resolution 352x288
resolution0 352x288@0

krick:
I think you're missing the point of groovymame.

You don't need to generate individual ini files for each game, groovymame picks resolutions on the fly from what the Arcadevga offers.

You should be able to delete all your per-game ini files.

If groovymame is picking a resolution that is not correct, then post a groovymame log file here so Calamity can look at it.
