Which Frontend? Win98 Arcade Monitor.

[Eddie Fantastic]

I have just today got windows running on arcade monitor with a g400 running the interlace util. It runs windows fine, a little flickery. but that was expected.
After a little tinkering I found that if I changed the mame32 settings as follows:
resolution: 640 x 480
depth: 16bit
to match my desktop settings and the rest of mame32 set to defaults, it displayed every game I tried full screen hardware stretrched to fit the screen (excect vertical games which had black borders to the left and right, as I had hoped).

I have played around with dosmame/arcadeos/advancemame with mixed results. Yes, the majority of games worked fine but there was so much tweaking involved, and some games I could never get to work right.

What I'm looking for now it a decent frontend that will drive mame32 using the settings I need. I really don't want it to look like a windows program. Any suggestions?

Well quite honestly no one who makes front ends make them with the mame32 version in mind.  It already has it's own gui.  However the standard windows compile of mame should do just fine.

If you are using an arcade monitor I would go with ArcadeOs.  I'm only saying this because its really not that difficult to set up.  I am using AdvanceMame with ArcadeOs with great results.  Every one of my games are working great.  There are only a couple games that I had to actually change the video modes in.  Let me know if I can be of some assistance.
