Hey guys

Frustrated. How do I get mame to fill my screen inside hyperspin?

I've got bezels turned off I think everywhere...but no dice it's layed out like I think bezels are still on true.

I've got it ticked to "wide screen stretch" in mameuifx as well. Stupidnoob issues

try copying your mame.in file and then change the copy to horizont.ini

 

Then open the horizont.ini with notepad or notepad++ if you have it and change keepaspect   1 to a zero then save.

 

That should make all your horizontal games in fullscreen.

 

I'm using mame version 0.171

No. A horizontal game on a horizontal screen. Looks ok if you turn keep aspect ratio off , it then fills the screen fully. But then when you launch a vertical game it also stretches full width and looks ridiculous.

In an old version of mameuifx it had both a horizont and vertical ini And had a setting "wide stretch" or something similar. This stretched the screen fully to the sides and didn't stretch the vertical screen all the way but made it a little wider which was better. Hasn't got that setting I don't think on mame64

If I remember right the last 2 versions of MAME you can select input type in the ini file now.

Also in that pic your monitor doesn't look like a normal horizontal 4:3 monitor. It almost looks completely square and the game looks like it's running in correct 4:3

If it's a correct 4:3 screen then setting it to keep the correct aspect ratio and not trying to stretch or warp the screen should give the correct image.

Sorted. Managed to get mameui to stretch full screen on horizontal games.

Did the above and made two copies of mame.ini and renamed them "horizont" and "vertical" then changed the "keep aspect ratio" to 0 in horizont but kept "keep aspect ratio" to 1 in vertical.

Note. I've found that to do this, a folder called "ini" is needed then put all 3 ini files in or mame doesn't see the new ones.

Couldn't see any other way of stretching full screen even with wide stretch on...

Hope this helps someone else.

(I got this to work on mameui 159) but should work on others
