Scanlines Scanlines where ar ethe Scanlines!!!

[zipdaman12]

I am very upset at the moment. I started off very excited to get version 1.10 of mame; love teh GamEX fron END, etc...

Then I noticed the -scanlines option does not work anymore with mame. The games look terrible in my opinion without them. I tried using the method in the mame32 gui, but it looks like bad....

What can I do? Any suggestions?

I want to use mamepp from teh command line if I can. I looked into advanceMame a bit but I am thoroughly confused with that.

Any and all suggestions are appreciated

I take it you read my post which directed you to a thread on mame.net? Might want to give a stab there. I don't use scanlines so I can't offer any suggestions.

Yeah I did read it. It is just such a huge disappointment. It worked so well and looked so great before. Maybe someone else will have some insight.

Try this

scanlines have been removed as a switchable option, whoever you can type the

Are you using direct draw or D3D? Try them both. D3D should be faster.

I tried d3d by specifying it in teh command line. No difference then from without it there. I will keep digging.

Lastly, what was the last version of mame that supported the scanlines (the old way -scanlines)

Can I use a rom set frm 1.10 with an older executable?

1.6 I believe. Yes you can use the new romset. Some games may fail to work though.
