Mamewah, Mame Res Tool and AVGA
« on: December 11, 2008, 02:19:06 pm »
Hello everyone, I have completed my conversion for Golden Tee to a MAME cabinet.  I have installed a brand new Wells Gardner 9800 as well as AVGA (PCIe) working with Mamewah 1.63 and Mame.128 and everything is working great.

So I thought I would start tweaking the resolutions using the Mame Res Tool to take advantage of the monitor and AVGA.  I have no problem running Mame res tool and testing the resolutions that I set and then the program writes the ini files in my ini directory (c:\mame\ini\).

The Problem is when I run mamewah it doesn't seem to utilize the ini files with the optimized resolutions -- is there a setting in mamewah ini files or the mame.ini file that I need to modify to point mamewah or mame to utilze the ini files.

In Mame.ini I have the ini path set correctly.

thanks for the help.

Maybe something in your Mamewah command line syntax is over-riding what's in the Mame ini files?
