In fact I do the same thing: load the games I loved, and when I get that "feeling" I know I'm the right way Thanks for sharing them, I think they are the best I have seen yet and I will be using these The key is launching the games you still have memories of seeing from the Arcade and if the settings are good enough, for a split second, you think you have returned to that time. I try many games and looks nice and bright. I'm quite satisfied, but I expect some comments/advices to improve that more:) HI, just to share what I got: here my settings used on MAME 0.142u5 after a bit of work. He wakes up everyday in the same clothes, runs around in sewers, and collects coins for a living.Īt the end of the day, he uses the coins to buy mushrooms You already stated starting out from scratch isn't difficult right? Why not learn and figure out what has changed and then adjust your settings accordingly to compensate for the changes. So your plan is to stay on u4 forever then?

3 all else default (I think this looks pretty good, at least in this orientation.) Regardless, obviously something has changed between u4 and u5 (the fps is better on u5, that's cool, but.), as you can see below.ġ42u4: aperture.png - shadow mask. Incidentally, I tried John IV's recent settings, on Bubbles admittedly, and it looked all moire-warbly. it's that difficult to start from scratch, it is a good thing? Maybe you should start from their settings.

Just turning HLSL on does not have any effect on colors for me.Ĭheck out your color_offset and color_power settings and make sure they are set on default values. HLSL kicks ass, and if i have to play around for a few seconds to get it perfect, then so be it.
#Mame nightmare in the dark pro
Its worth it though, as it actually feels like im playing MAME on my old Mitsubishi Diamond Pro CRT back in 2005. at least thats what i thought, and what i have been doing.

Thats just a natural result of CRT emulation, which are darker than LCD displays.you just have to play around with the Brightness,Contrast and Gamma sliders to compensate.and remember most of these Arcade CRT's were in poorly lit rooms, so they didnt look as dark as they do in your nicely lighted room.

Is anyone else experiencing this?Ĭonsider it high comedy.sincere 't take it personally. In the current build (baseline and UI), enabling HLSL (and no other parameters) makes the colors very dark.
