    Theres some games I can run in Dosmame but wont run in mame32

    I cant get sound or my gamepad running in Dosmame so using this isn't an option.

    Has anyone got any ideas on how to get these games working ?

    What are the games? Check your roms have to correct name etc with a rom checker

    In order to get sound and joypads working in DOSMame you need to add switchs on the command line ie. -s I cant remember as it's been an age since I've used it. *google:)

    For general stuff on how to make MAME work, check out EasyEmu and for DOS Mame Specific stuff, check out DOS MAME Support Page

    Cheers for the help guys :D
    As for the romsets I'm positive they are correct as I download them from a very reliable source ;)

    Are the versions of DOSMAME and MAME32 the same ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭Ste-

    What's the exact error ?

    Is it missing some of the ROM sets or it it something different ?

    Can you cut and paste the error in here ?

    Sorry was just reading over my 1st post it's not that I get an error running them it's more that there slow as fcuk. but run full speed under Dos.

    Ahh......

    The problem is the Sound Emulation - uses a lot of CPU.
    So when you run without sound in DOS MAME it will run a lot faster than MAME32 with sound. If you get sound working in DOS MAME you'll be back to the same speed (approx) as MAME32
