On the fly HDMI resolution change is implemented. Scanlines work best when "display_smooth_stretch" is set to "no". Postprocessing scanline drawing is available, the "display_effect" in the mame.cfg controls this. The "antialias" setting in mame.cfg is only for vector drawing. Performance can be impacted depending on the size of your monitor's resolution when switching off anti-aliasing. To switch off anti-aliasing drawing set the "display_smooth_stretch" to "no" in the mame.cfg. If the image goes off your TV screen then you can change the border width by setting "display_border" in mame.cfg. If you're getting a black screen when running in Console mode withĬomposite output, try removing/commenting out the "overscan_" parameters from "/boot/config.txt" as follows (using disable_overscan doesn't appear to fix it): To fixĪdditionally some TVs have problems with mono sound through HDMI, to fix this try setting the "force_stereo" to "yes" in mame.cfg. Is causing the issues as it has problems with the ALSA drivers. If you're having problems with HDMI audio then it is likely PulseAudio Now set the volume, type "amixer cset numid=3 90%". This will show the numid for the playback device, probably 3. If your sound is too quiet then do the following to fix that:įirst get the playback device, type "amixer controls" I'd also recommend a minimum of 64MB for the GPU RAM allocation (gpu_mem=64). You will also need to make this permanent after a reboot. Later kernels appear to set it to "powersave" by default. NOTE: Make sure overclocking is actually working by checking "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor" should be "ondemand". My overclocking settings which work well, (/boot/config.txt) Overclocking is supported by the Raspberry Foundation.

I highly recommend overclocking your Raspberry Pi to gain maximum performance as MAME is very CPU intensive and overclocking will make most games run at full speed.

It will work in X-Windows or in the Console (which is preferred). To simply run MAME without the GUIĮnter "./mame " is the game to run. To run MAME simple run the "mame" executable.

This is a highly optimised version for the Raspberry Pi, using GLES2/dispmanx for graphics, ALSA for sound and SDL for input. It also plays most of the games I'm interested in playing! This version emulates 2270 different romsets.Īlthough this is an old version of MAME it plays much faster than the newer versions and as the Pi is relatively CPU underpowered (yes even the RPi2) it was chosen to get as many games working at full speed as possible (full speed means 100% with no frame skip).
#Reinstall mame4all emulator pi plus#
It emulates all arcade games supported by original MAME 0.37b5 plus some additional games from newer MAME versions.

To see MAME license see the end of this document. This is a MAME Raspberry Pi port based on Franxis MAME4ALL which is itself based on the MAME 0.37b5 emulator by Nicola Salmoria.
