stf Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) STF I fixed darius games (if you turn on aspect ratio correction the game senses its not correct and stretchs it across more monitors... but with this option off its all good..I cant fix this as its in the roms by looks) and also the small start menu is now redone and a bug that has allways been there for the virtual keyboard... the sizing was allways wrong. If you want to include these fixs in final beta MSN me before release. Yes I do BP, as it's a final beta it's better if fixed !! , people will enjoy it better and that is your wish !!!All the big work could be hidden behind the small bad details that people will only see ! (Darius is better in full screen, so is ninja Warriors (ninjaw). We can't really see the action with only one screen instead of 3. In the fullscreen version, we can play with the screensize adjustment to get manually a cool aspect ratio). MSN !!(I keep a MSN dialog opened all day waiting for you, just leave the files or a message) Edited February 12, 2009 by stf
sbpaabck Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) Hi BP, Finally had a chance to test this (beta 6) been busy (like you guys releasing betas faster than I could install ) I think the new menus are a vast improvement, I see you have included many more options as requested in seperate and this thread so no doubt happy ppl out there. Took me a short while to figure out you need to press in both thumbsticks for the hidden rompath settings etc but now I have the hang of it i like that also. I had a little trouble getting to the save feature as it seemed to bring up both save and volume at the same time so I couldn't see the save options properly (i.e. slot a,b,x,y) but I understand this feature doesn't work for every game anyway so no big loss I think I may be pressing the buttons wrongly will try again tonight, noticed a couple of little spelling errors will check tonight after work and detail them if you like (not sure if you are bothered about this) suggestions: 1/option of qwerty keyboard when entering rompath? - not important enough I guess?2/ability to browse to rompath when choosing via hidden option? - this might help people who have trouble pointing to their rompath as the alternative is to have prior knowledge of the exact rompath. (it happens!)3/an option to select screenshots folder in a similar way to the rompath selection method via advanced settings?4/ability to change controller function shortcuts - e.g. save, load, pause etc with an option to restore to default. I really love the new beta - its slick and fast however I noticed robocop 2 and a beatemup which name eludes me seemed to be playing too quickly if anything! is there an option to change CPU speed or something like that which has eluded me? I think I saw an option like this (was it CPU overclock) before but I can't remember where. Thinking about it I think it was in the NEO-GEO settings but I couldn't find it last night - can you advise? When this version is complete its gonna be mint! Edited February 12, 2009 by sbpaabck
stf Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) Qwerty options is not necessary according to me, you won't change your directories that often don't you think ? The screenshot folder can be set in the paths menu now, same for titleshots, artwork, and removed games ! For the shortcuts enable the "Remap default controller" option (called differently in last beta) in the advanced settings page. To get the CPU overclock functions: press BACK and Right Thumb Button ingame. To set the neogeo games, launch your game, "remap this game", choose keys tor "test switch" and remap it to be able to enter the menu (freeplay, difficulty), same thing for CPS2 remap the service mode.

strike Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 It is what keymap which is the problem (marvel vs capcom ...), impossible to release a fury.
stf Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) It is what keymap which is the problem (marvel vs capcom ...), impossible to release a fury. We should make a thread for games. You can remap your games the way you want For example, if you want to have LEFT TRIGGER as Lpunch+Mpunch+Hpunch RIGHT TRIGGER as Lkick+Mkick+Hkick then remap this way: J1 BUTTON 1 - J1 X or J1 L-triggerJ1 BUTTON 2 - J1 A or J1 L-triggerJ1 BUTTON 3 - J1 white or J1 L-trigger J1 BUTTON 4 - J1 Y or J1 R-triggerJ1 BUTTON 5 - J1 B or J1 R-triggerJ1 BUTTON 6 - J1 Black or J1 R-trigger (this is just an example, choose your keys yourself !) This way triggers will press 3 buttons at the same time ! Edited February 12, 2009 by stf
Antiriad Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Just to say that the 720p support is great! Looks much clearer and crisper than 480p, methink MAMEoX128 Plus is not going to get used much now. I know it is a bit late now but if you want any gfx stuff, just ask - I did some skins for Zsnexbox here and a logo for a forthcoming project here as examples.

BritneysPAIRS Posted February 15, 2009 Author Posted February 15, 2009 OK its kind of the wrong time but due to requests..... now hidden paths page is hidden settings.... it has a stop screen rotation in cabnet mode option and also a use diff key to quit the game option at present
stf Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 (edited) BP I've seen that 480p vm.txt can be inproved. I think the values were made for another Mame.For example I can launch Outrunners with (values for vm.txt of course) 4 56 65535 instead of 4 48 65535 = less HDD access and no more glitches when the guy talks at road changing. But I need to know if the available Ram will stay the same from the last beta to the final Ignite (no more 35k ).If it's the case I enter an advanced rewriting the vm. We were talking about the best mame last time. You have the best one !!! Operation Wolf 3 (480p) launches in mameOX 128 only with a vm value, no vm with Ignite !! Better memory management !
