Ok Buddabings version of mame can bypass the various nag screens which is great.

I seem to be having trouble with the hwstretch function, it does not work with Budda's build - is this correct?

Further to Sirpoonga's point / the problem is as follows using the commandline version of mame the hwstretch function seems to work as it stretches the screen horizontal but not vertical. I am left with a large gap at the top and bottom of the screen - is this normal in some games (i.e street fighter).

I really like the ides of buddabing's build but as already mentioned the hwstretch function does not work.

Please help if you can!

If you use GameEX as your front end, there is an option to bypass the nag screen which works great .

Guys

Am using Buddabing's mame build and it is working just fine.

The problem I am having now is that some games (Neo-Geo) ones run @ the correct resoultion (in that they fill the screen).

However some games (Capcom) are only taking up a small section of the screen - how is this corrected?

Any ideas on how to restore the correct resolution to these games?

Thanks

Lea

p.s Nag screens are gone.

OK I have had that annoying nag screens and finally got fed up.   And since they no longer have the option in mame to get rid of them I had to find my own option.   And I have to be honest I ain't to smart of a coder.  But I figured if you can change the mame.c areas and cheat you can get rid of the nag screen.   And behold it worked all i did was change two words in mame.c

the original settings are....

/* if we didn't find a settings file, show the disclaimer */
   if (settingsloaded || options.skip_disclaimer || ui_display_copyright(artwork_get_ui_bitmap()) == 0)
   {
      /* show info about incorrect behaviour (wrong colors etc.) */
      if (options.skip_warnings || ui_display_game_warnings(artwork_get_ui_bitmap()) == 0)
      {
         /* show info about the game */
         if (options.skip_gameinfo || ui_display_game_info(artwork_get_ui_bitmap()) == 0)

What I did was change skip_disclaimer - skip_gameinfo and then changed skip_warnings - skip_gameinfo

Now basically what i am gathering is when you set skip_gameinfo to on  you will skip all nag screens.   and testing with known "warning games" (galaga) I get no nagging warning.   I hope this helps it was pretty easy considering i don't know what i am doing
