twobucks Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I am looking for some advice using the mame Atari 2600 system (version .213). There is one game in particular (kaboom) that has sprite blur and object distortion problems. As the bombs come down faster they end up getting blurry and elongated. This problem occurs only when using mame/mess and was wondering if anybody here has seen the same issue and solved it? I have tried every video output option with filters on and off so i am thinking this is just a problem with mame itself. My last option is to add the stand alone version of stella emulator which has spinner support but would rather not for just one game.

Lordmonkus Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 My advice is to not use Mame / MESS for the 2600, use either the stand alone version of Stella or the Retroarch core if you use it at all. Stella is by far the best 2600 emulator out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mame/mess and the stand alone stella emulator does support analog spinners but i end up having to give up bezels which is better than no spinner support.
