mamedev has said the more they are bugged about something like this, the longer they will put it off. So it's more a warning to all readers to not bug mamedev about this.

So are these guys gods or something?

Since these are the guys that YOU are bitching about ... YES, they are Gods to those of us who simply leech off of their efforts.
If you want to write the code or pay somebody to write the code (AND get it included in the project by those who carry this important work on), then either step up or shut up.
I have no problems with asking the MAMEDevs to do things. While I don't think that they should change their course, if they choose to, then cool.
If you are someone who has never actually contributed to the project, then you don't really have leg to stand on with your smartass, do you ?
:dunno

You might want to double check my post before you assume mine are bitching.
This is the first time I have made a comment on mame's usability. I don't have a problem with Mame for starters.
As far as I'm concerned getting mad and putting the brakes on software because user suggest certain features is childish. Thus the comment.
Its just like what you see on tv, if you get offended you can turn the channel.
If everyone was truly concerned with "running the games the way they were originally run" then no one would be using any of the LED stuff and encoders now would we. :dunno

Sorry if I misjudged your post, but your closing kinda makes my point ... you seem more concerned about what you want than about what the people actually doing the work want ...
WaRpEd:
Iam more than happy to let the mamedevs decide what is a priority or not.
The legal tightrope they walk to keep free emulation and games working and working quite well IMHO is something I wouldn't attempt to code in my wildest dreams.
Would 3D acceleration change some read Small percentage of games faster, Yes.
Would coding drivers for every type of graphics cards take forever, Yes.
In the end we are NOT paying for other peoples time and expertise.
Just my 2 cents :soapbox:
