MAME resolution issue

I just set up HyperSpin and Rocketlauncher primarily for MAME. I also have a couple N64 games that I set up and they work great. The only issue I have with MAME is picture quality is worse when I launch mame64 via HyperSpin than when I just run mame64. With HyperSpin the games are more pixelated. I went into Rocketlauncher and tried adding a few different monitors but it didn't seem to make a difference. Anybody know how I fix this?

Thanks for the reply. I tried this but still have the same issue. I tried each video mode, but none of them changed how it looked. It's noticeably more pixelated when the MAME game is running. I'm running .202. When I go into the gui and look at the video settings, it's set to auto.  Anything else I can try? It's driving me nuts!

This is the only place to set video options. If setting to "ini" doesn't look exactly like opening in mame itself, then I would assume it's not finding the ini file. Depending on your version or flavor of mame, ini files are either in the root of mame or in a subfolder also named "ini".

Yeah, I don't get it. I checked the mame.ini file in the root folder and see that I have it marked to d3d (see below) I also tried changing it in rocketlaucher settings to d3d instead of ini but nothing changed. I even tried a newer version of mame to see if that would help, but nothing makes the output better or worse.

For anyone looking back on this with the same issue, I figured it out! I had to change LegacyMode to true in the MAME module that Spawk provided a screenshot before above. I don't really understand why this fixed the video outputs, but I'm not complaining!
