Hi
(its the same post i have already posted at the ArcadeControls Forum)
I know that GroovyMame is optimized for CRT and i use it in my Cab without any problems,
but i would like to use it on my Desktop-PC instead MameUI64/MameUIFX64.
PC is
Windows 10/64bit
i7
Nvidia GTX970
Benq Monitor 2560x1440, 30-222khz, 23-144hz
I created Refreshrates with the Nvidia Tool (all for 2560x1440): 23, 24, 25, 30, 33, 35, 40, 48-62, 66, 70, 72, 75, 80, 90, 96, 99, 100, 110, 120, 140, 144 - all testet and worked ok
With MameUI64/MameUIFX64 i used 'resoluton' 2560x1440 and 'refresh' auto
If i start, for example, R-Type MameUI64/FX64 switch to 56hz and the game runs at 102% (ok 55hz was nearer to original R-Type but Mame rounds up to 56hz and its OK for me)
If i start any game with GroovyMame it cant change the Refresrate. My Desktop-Refreshrate is 144hz and GroovyMame starts every game at 144hz
I tried many different settings in the mame.ini but the Refreshrate is always at 144hz
this shows the command window:
Video chipset is not compatible.
SwitchRes: [magmax] (1) horizontal (256x224@60.000000)->(2560x1440@60.000000)
Average speed: 240.01% (3 seconds)
it looks that GroovyMame change the refreshrate to 60hz but but my monitorinfo shows 144hz and the game runs at 240%
i know that Nvidia is not compatible with GroovyMame but the right refreshrates are present in my Windows (created with the Nvidia tool and also at the right place in the Registry/EDID)
Thanks...
My last mame.ini
