Games include the"bezel" on the screen

(1/3) > >>

Czapala:
I was wondering.  I notice that some games include what looks like the bezel (w/graphics) from the original game ON the screen with the actual game play in the middle. IE. game play screen is smaller.  Pacman (midway) and I think  Marvel vs Capcom(?) were a couple that I ran across.  I am sure there are more.

Is there a way to turn that off so that the whole screen is the actual game?  maybe in an ini or something?

I cannot remember which folder it is, but I think that artwork is in one of the folders in your mame directory.  I think if you get rid of the files in that folder, the bezels should go away.

true

or for mame .79 its  the following in mame.ini

set them to 0 not 1

### Mame CORE misc options ###
artwork                 1
use_backdrops           1
use_overlays            1
use_bezels              1

I have my setup with just the bezels set to 0. The backdrops and overlays will not reduce the size of the image. In some cases, the game just doesn't look the same without them - for example Battlezone wouldn't have the green lines without it, and Asteroids Deluxe wouldn't have the space scene in the background...

well, I removed the bezel simply because of what it did to Marvel Super Heroes. However I would like to bring back the bezels but only for vertical games - I figure at least the entire screen will be then filled up with some sort of graphic/s.

Is there a way of doing this? To tell Mame to apply the bezel for only vertical games?
