groovymame on fixed-refresh/resolution LCD
« on: November 03, 2019, 01:04:54 pm »
Hi all,

I am trying out groovymane as a way to deal with the issue of having to choose between non-skipping audio and screen-tearing on a large number of games.  I am 100% ok with gamespeed not being arcade-perfect though.  My first testing seemed to indicate that it worked out of the box, replacing mame64.exe - it maintained my hlsl settings and put the skipping sound to rest.  However, custom artwork is a pretty big part of my build, and it's not showing it.

Is there are way to get groovymame to be mostly like mame64, except for the syncrefresh/syncsound capabilities?  Is there a better way to handle this issue?

Thanks either way!!

thanks!  I found a couple of different fixes for native mame64.  I'm happy to share if anyone wants to know (didn't post here because not relevant to groovymame).
