flowrent Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 As Mame progresses i see that my PC can't hanle it like it used to. For example in v0.63 MK3 and UMK3 work perfect but in 103 they are so choppy... What are the minimum specs for Mame and how can we tweak more speed out of it ?

Agozer Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Lower the screen resolution, use a *sensible* frameskip setting, lower the sound frequency, use Direct3D... Hm. That's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flowrent Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) So uncheck direct draw,check direct 3d ?Frame skipping should be automatic for best speed ? Edit : I dont get it why these two games are the only among many that have issues with 103.Even Kof2003 runs perfect on 103.

Agozer Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I just keep them both checked... Although the whole belief of getting extra speed from enabling Direct3D might just be a placebo effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weirdy Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 The reason why MK games aren't running too great for you is because around...I think 0.70u2 or somewhere around there, the clock speed was corrected (and raised). You might be able to get a better frame rate if you underclock the games' cpu a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iq_132 Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Also, IIRC, they correctly emulated the sound processor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flowrent Posted February 3, 2006 Author Share Posted February 3, 2006 (edited) That's too bad if a game like UMK3 is not playable on a machine like mine 1,4 GHz(real frequency)/256 ram/64 mb video. I will use an older version of Mame,it wont work on 103 no matter what i do. Anyway,they should do smth about those games to make them playable again on average machines.
