How do 30hz games such as Rampage work in MAME, then? They seem to run at the correct speed on a 60hz LCD. It's effectively running at double its native refresh rate. Interestingly, Rampage in MAME looks horrible on a G-Sync monitor, because it actually runs at 30hz on them. It's incredibly blurry/smeary because of the low refresh rate.

Why can 30hz games run at double their refresh rate in baseline MAME with a standard 60hz monitor, yet Street Fighter can't run at 119.26hz on displays that can run at that refresh rate? The GroovyMAME black frame insertion solution would work if the games just ran at double their native refresh rate instead of being forced to 120hz globally (for 60hz games, it works fine).
