Re: Galaxian, namco set 1 - lack of fluidity in horizontal movement

To see what the OP might be talking about, I tried this with mame 0.261.

When the aliens in the rows move from left to right, it does indeed seem like they are not moving smoothly (I cannot find the right word for it, but the term 'stop-motion animation' comes to mind). When they dive down to you though, that does seem smooth. To me it seems like that's the behavior of the original hardware though, and the developers just didn't (or couldn't) make the animation just as smooth when the aliens move from left to right in their rows. On the other hand, I might just be seeing things.

For what it's worth: both my GPU (GeForce GTX 1650) and my monitor (Asus ROG Swift PG278Q) have G-Sync. (and again, I don't think it's a tearing issue, just the way the original was designed).
