Re: Compiling for XCode debugging

If this is possible and someone here has done it to the extent where breakpoints can used etc. If be interested to know how much work is required to fix what I have her...

Re: How to change Input from “This Game” to “General” in a lot of games quickly?

Well, I took a quick look at RetroArch, and it seems the cfg files for MAME are stored in the 'saves\mameversion\cfg' directory. So for example for (core\plugin) mame 2003 (0.78) and puckman, the config file containing the game specific settings is stored in : C:\RetroArch-Win64\saves\mame2003\cfg\p...

Re: How to change Input from “This Game” to “General” in a lot of games quickly?

I looked for the files but I’m not sure where they are located. Since it is on retroarch, I can seem to find where any of the mame directories are located. Well, you are not likely to be getting much support here, because you are using RetroArch. I do not know the full details, but from what I unde...

Re: How to change Input from “This Game” to “General” in a lot of games quickly?

So I’m using mame .78, on retroarch, being run by RetroPie. Basically I, changed my input on the “Input (This Game)” tab, and I need to reverse those games back to using the “Input (General)” tab. There are some games that I need to keep using the this game tab, mainly the 4 way joystick games. Wha...

Re: Astro Blaster Runs too slow

Yes,I know it's not a new CPU, but it's still more than capable! I get what you are saying, but a decade old CPU is a loong time ago in a meaningful technical sense. multi-core is the way. Most CPUs are adding cores, not speed. Although I might agree with you in general, it is also not entirely cor...

Re: Astro Blaster Runs too slow

Oh, and BTW, my PC runs on a AMD FX-8320 CPU 8 cores @3,5Ghz. I couldn't help but check, but this CPU seems to have been released back in 2012 Q4 (almost 10 years ago now), so it's not really a new CPU in technology terms. For example, here's a performance comparison of your 10 year old AMD CPU ver...

Re: Astro Blaster Runs too slow

PD: version .223 runs astrob at full speed, as it was before (just tested it). That is as expected. The described changes were only introduced in 0.224. But, like I said, MAME is using less than 15% of CPU, so my CPU has plenty of spare power, why isn't MAME using it?????? Why doesn't MAME take adv...

Re: Astro Blaster Runs too slow

Hi! At some point in the last 6 or 7 versions, Astro Blaster started running slower than it should. Other much more demanding games, like Xevious 3D/G (for example) run at full speed with no frame skipping, Does anyone know what's happening? Astro Blaster used to run at full speed for years and yea...
