delt31 Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Hyperspin is working great. I can open the game up in MAME and i go to sliders and then change the horizontal stretch to .0932. I would like that setting to be applied to all games. I hear that maybe horizont.ini could help but not sure what to include in it for mame to apply it all around. any suggestions on what to include in that ini?
Fursphere Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Put the setting on your horizont.ini file in your mame/ini folder MAME has a internal INI processing hierarchy order. Last file/item to be processed wins. (you can have individual game.ini files too, but I forget where they fall in the stack...) mame.ini vertical.ini (for games with vertical monitor orientation) horizont.ini (for games with horizontal monitor orientation) vector.ini (for vector games only) <command line arguments> Files/items are processed top to bottom. I think all the INI files have to be in the mame/ini folder for this to work too. So if your mame.ini file is in the mame root, it'll trip things up. After the MAME.INI, each file can have just a subset of options - you don't need a full config file. Keep in mind since RocketLaucher (formally RocketLauncher) uses command line arguments to pass settings to MAME, which will override the processing of some settings. Basically, test outside of hyperspin / launcher to see if the setting is working as intended.
delt31 Posted July 11, 2015 Author Posted July 11, 2015 thanks but what exactly do I put IN the horizont.ini file? I want to keep the horiz stretch as .0924. What do I write in the horizont.ini file for MAME to do that>?
Fursphere Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Look in your mame.ini and find the setting in there. Then copy that line to the other ini file? this thread appears to have some further insight. http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=101526.0
delt31 Posted July 12, 2015 Author Posted July 12, 2015 thanks. unfort the setting I'm looking for (horiz stretch) is not in there. I found it in my cfg files for each game though. Not sure if I can translate that to the ini - actually just tried doesn't work. Might need to create a cfg per game.
Fursphere Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 I put keepaspect 0 in my horizont.ini file and for all horizontal games they stretch to full screen. Vertical games and vector games stay normal.
delt31 Posted July 12, 2015 Author Posted July 12, 2015 Thanks! Now what do I put in the horizont.ini to get the horizontal stretch the same for all of my games?
extracampine Posted January 1, 2018 Posted January 1, 2018 I too would like to know the answer to this. Poor delt31 has been waiting many moons.
extracampine Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 As far as I can tell, for some strange reason the stretch settings only appear in the .cfg files for the individual games and not in the mame.ini files. So how do we apply stretch settings across the board for MAME (or NeoGeo, as I am trying to do)?
