MAMEWorld Forums - EmuChat - Re: Can't make the cfg's to work right

Hi BIOS-D!

This is how I use my mame, I have a ini file under ini\source\neogeo.ini to setup all my neogeo games at once with:

Code:

bios                      unibios33
samplerate                22050
keepaspect                1
video                     d3d
window                    1
resolution                native
ctrlr                     snk

It doesn't matter what neogeo game I start, I'll have my control settings and everything else I like setup for all my neogeo games.

> Why are you using XML files?
Because there are some controls missing, or not available in the ini file like independent volume levels for each YM2610 channels, this settings are saved in cfg (xml) format only under "mixer". If this settings are available in the mame.ini or any description of it in the mame documentation, I wasn't able to find it.

I'm using neogeo as an example but it could be any other driver, like the new k573dio/k573fpga. Some games have more than 4 channels to adjust and would be impractical to adjust volume levels to each and every game available.

It could be much more easy if this settings could be set only once from an ini file.
