oh and yea i see that the timer goes really fast, but the gameplay seems like its at normal speed. check this video out if u look at it running on mame on pc it runs exactly the same, so i think thats just how the game is. either way, it isnt a retroarch issue.


EDIT: Ok, saw the video now. On Wii U version the game goes at 2xspeed. It's insane. That video beos by its natural speed.

Please try the rom by yourself, i'm sure you'll suffer the same issue.

By the way, i tried Tekken 2 for shit and giggles and was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't full speed (i guess all Cores are running on software by now) but it looked good.

Can you actually rotate the screen on mame yet? I haven't had the time to test myself tbh.
I'd like to know if this is an issue being worked on as well. Some of the old vertical games are unplayable because of it. All of the options are there for video rotation and core- allow rotation, even tried dipswit h for upright/cabinet but no combination seems to have an effect.

We've been mentioning it for a while but no response so I guess it's not high up on the priority list. A pity since so many of the great games need 'tate.
 
No, maybe I should take my own advice, do the latest nightly Snes9x builds work for you?



Did you have to delete anything?
Delete the CFG files for it and try again.
That fixes everything, it's like when you call Tech Support and they tell you if you have tried to reset the machine yet, deleting the cfg files is Retroarch's "Reset the machine".

I should know better than to remove the corresponding cores' config files :P

uhm i DID try it myself on several nightlys, i guess i didnt make that clear. it runs exactly as in that video for me.
 
Hello All,

This might be a stupid question but I haven't used MAME in over in a decade.......while I was able to successfully get RetroArch working with NES, SNES, Genesis, GB,GBC/GBA (basically everything) - MAME 2003 + MAME 2003 Midway produce DSI Errors when attempting to load any ROMS. My basic questions are this -

1. Should we be leaving MAME ROMS in .ZIP format?
2. Does the title of the the ROM folder actually matter at all?
3. Where are the CFG files located that everyone keeps referencing to blow away for troubleshooting purposes? :)

*** Full Disclaimer...I used the Wii U App store to install all of my RetoArch stuff so I have 0 clue which "build" I'm using. Would I get 'nightly's' by updating all of the Emulators from within the App Store?

Thanks!

- Joey

Did you by any chance use anything else but ''load rom'' when loading ...um roms ? (i cant remember the exact term now but i think its collections or something, that crashes all my cores for some reason)
