Does this help ?

-prescale

Controls the size of the screen images when they are passed off to the graphics system for scaling. At the minimum setting of 1, the screen is rendered at its original resolution before being scaled. At higher settings, the screen is expanded by a factor of before being scaled. With -video d3d, this produces a less blurry image at the expense of some speed. The default is 1.

Re: Prescale option help

What is the maximum value i can set to the Prescale setting in
mame.ini file in the latest version of mame? I thing it reverts to default 1 when i put a higher number to this setting without knowing the maximum value mame supports. I must find out the real values.

Re: Prescale option help

The minimum value is '1' (which is also the default), the maximum is '3'. If you specify an invalid value that is lower than '1' or higher than '3', the value gets reset to a value of '1'.
