  1. I don't have this system set up so I can't test this, but I have some old notes that say to hit F3 in MAME after you get the scrambled screen, the hit Q.
  2. Actual recommendations will probably need an estimate of your budget for a PC itself, not including anything extra like a cabinet, arcade type controller, etc. As far as size goes, you can go with a small in size unit, as long as it has the right kind of cpu, memory, and graphics capability, or a larger, desktop tower unit with basically the same components as the small unit, but will more than likely give you more expansion abilities, i.e. storage, more efficient cooling, etc.
  3. I have had a 'three' copy backup of EVERYTHING I do for quite a while. I just lost a drive for my 2nd copy volume, so I need to decide what I'm going to do going forward. A lot of my drives are beyond their normal life expectancy, so I need to do some GB/$ calculations. Why three copies? Read this: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/the-3-2-1-backup-strategy/ I have learned from hard experience over the years working in IT that one backup only is a mistake. You eventually will have a multi-drive failure across purposes of use that gets you right where it hurts. I know some people have never had a data loss, and I congratulate them. Me? Not so lucky.

  7. @fyrenthenimar, here are the four for the collections/Playlists. I'm still working on a Supervision set.
  8. Did you check the Intel graphic drivers as was suggested earlier? Outdated Intel drivers can cause all kinds of strange behavior.
  9. The stand alone Demul should support CHD files as well.
  10. @fyrenthenimar, the Epoch, Emerson and AAE archives are up.

  17. What Suhrvivor said. I meant to expound a little more, but failed miserably. I have kept an old copy of chdman from an older MAME build which outputs V4 CHD conversions. That gets me around the CHD incompatibility that can show up.
  18. Yes, edit the custom command line for each of those games needing the Intellivoice feature.
  19. The command line used to be: mame intv -cart voice -cart2 gamename
  20. Here is one you can use until a better one comes along.
  21. One thing to consider is IF you are using Retroarch, or are willing to switch to it, many of the cores support CHD files now. CHD is a good compression option for those cores that support it, plus there is no uncompressing the game files as the core runs the game directly. You can save a ton of space using CHD, or at least I know I did. Here is a current list of cores that support CHD (as of this initial post). 4do_libretro genesis_plus_gx_libretro mame2000_libretro mame2009_libretro mame2010_libretro mame2014_libretro mame2016_libretro mame_libretro mednafen_pce_fast_libretro mednafen_pcfx_libretro mednafen_psx_hw_libretro mednafen_psx_libretro mednafen_saturn_libretro mednafen_supergrafx_libretro mess2014_libretro redream_libretro reicast_libretro reicast_naomi_libretro reicast_oit_libretro ume2014_libretro
  22. You could use Notepad++ to mass edit the xml file for that platform. I just testing this here and I wiped out all the info in the <version> field in about 5 seconds. Here is my replace criteria.
  23. Did you create a symbolic link, hard link, or junction? If so, it may have been overwritten by the upgrade. Just recreate the link and you should be good.
  24. @fyrenthenimar Here you go.
