Location of mame.ini using mamewah

[jimmybonsaville]

High well ive been playing a few games and noticed a few that chugg along. Im running a celeron 800 so i know my processor is struggling. Ive been reading up on mame optimizations that i can alter via mame.ini.   The problem is it doesnt seem to exsist anywhere. There is a mame.ini in the ini folder for Mamewah but there doesnt seem anything that can be teaked etc sample quality or hd stretch etc. Im running mame 0.92 that came with the rom dvds i got from a burner a while ago. Any help on this?

The mame.ini in the mamewah folder is specific to mamewah. It's for telling the front end where to find mame etc.
Have a look in your mame folder you'll find a mame.ini there.

You would think that it is there but....it isnt which i find a bit weird. Ive even done a search but theres not one there.

run a command line and type

mame.exe -cc

that should generate it for you

mame.exe -cc

Make sure you are in the mame folder.

lol dont worry im not that much of a newbie  I understood that when you first ran mame it auto generated a mame.ini file?? Like is say everything is running ok with mamewah i just want to alter a few things which i need access to a mame.ini. By generating another ini file its not going to alter the state of my progress in any way is it?

nah I thought that too at first, but just running mame itself makes no ini file oddly - try as said and it'll make it in your c:\mame folder next to the exe itself
