fwiw, waitvsync has no such an effect on SDLMAME in 126u5 (tested with various cps1 games)... it could be a win only issue... however it could simply be due to lack of power in the computer used |

I will test SDL version but it's not lack of power in the cpu, indeed all CPS1 games are displayed smoothly and quickly in fullscreen with mame0.120 |

No problem here on some random cps1/cps3 and battletoads I tested on my windows 32-bit build. If this was a widespread problem since 0.120, we would have certainly heard about it by now from multiple people (cps1/cps3 especially are quite popular). I'm not entirely sure what your problem might be - could be a simply configuration issue or defective hardware/corrupted operating system. No mention is made on video card and that can make a huge difference as well - especially if claiming that a single video sync command is causing the problems. Your strangest claim is that it works on a Celeron 2.8 but doesn't on your P4 3.4 with the exact same hardware/software setup otherwise? |

indeed CPS1/CPS2/CPS3 works fine with mame0.120 with my P4 And it's exactly with same configuration but with celeron 2.8 it worked without problem with mame 0.126 I am changed only CPU for P4 and mame0.126 freeze with CPS1/CPS3 :( :( I am tested my actual configuration with many olders and newers 2d/3d games and all work fine others emulators (FinalBurnA/Kawaks/Zinc/SCUMM/DOSBOx....) work fine too. But i prefer mame............. PS: I use GEFORCE 7600 GT 512 DDR3 (il will try to update drivers but.... I am sure it's not the problem ) |

can you create a new folder with mame without mame.ini? open a shell cd in the new folder and type "mame ffight -waitvsinc" |

Are you sure you are not using some sort of GUI or another front-end? A normal MAME build will not create a MAME.INI file automatically. (you must explicitly tell MAME to make one with: -createconfig/cc). The whole point of putting it in a unique folder is to put ONLY "mame.exe" and no other files in there and execute that command-line mentioned above. Given you probably have your roms stashed in another folder, be sure to set your "-ROMPATH c:\mame\roms" or whatever your path is. At this point, no one can duplicate your error in either windows or SDL version of MAME. Since you have a discussion at another forum about this (Planet Emu) perhaps they can help sort through your issues you are having. I would suggest you continue your discussion there as the problem likely lies outside of MAME and sounds like a hardware conflict or some driver/configuration issue, again.. outside of MAME. Closing as "Unable to Reproduce". I will monitor your thread at that forum and will change it's status if discovery comes that shows this is MAME to blame for your error. Sorry we could not help you further. |
