Zodiark12 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Hey everyone. I started having a weird issue that I didn't have at first. When starting a game from LaunchBox or BigBox I gave strange performance issue. The audio and visual are sluggish. Starting the same game directly from MAME and it has no problems. I did some search and it seemed to point toward the Nvidia GeForce Exprience software but I don't have it on my machine. I do have the AMD Radeon Software however. I did upgrade the drivers, rebooted the machine, tried different games. Still persist. Everything seems to run great and if I start the game from MAME directly it's working 100% performance. Any ideas on that one? Currently running a AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with 16Gb RAM, 512Gb NVME with my OS and a 2Tb SATA SSD with Launchbox and everything else on it. I'm using AMD Radeon iGPU.

Zodiark12 Posted November 11, 2023 Author Share Posted November 11, 2023 Ended up fixing the issue. Found out my display refresh rate was running at 29.9hz instead of 60. Switched the rate and problem fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zodiark12 Posted November 12, 2023 Author Share Posted November 12, 2023 Well the issue has surfaced again and after some more testing I seem to have found exactly when this happen. For some reason when I turn the option "Skip the game details screen" to enable, I get at most 54% speed in MAME. I switch this option back to disable and back to 100% speed in MAME.

Zodiark12 Posted November 14, 2023 Author Share Posted November 14, 2023 Not to be nagging but I have trouble understanding why toggling on and off a details screen would affect the performance in MAME... Anyone with any ideas at all? 😔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 It shouldn't cause performance issues. I have always had the details screen info disabled and never had an issue. Beyond that I have nothing I can add to help you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zodiark12 Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 I made further testing and it seems to happen only with the default theme. If I switch to old default I get full performance. Of course, it's the default one I wanted to use, just my usual luck. 😓 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
