MAMEUI BEZEL OFF - SWITCH IMG GAMES -SCALINES CRT
05/26/24 10:28 AM


Good morning everyone.
I've been visiting you for years but this is the first time I've written.
As per the rules, I have already read the various related discussions of interest to me but something strange is happening to me that I can't find the answer to, understand and understand.

Introduction..... in recent years, due to work etx, I have not been able to follow the evolution of MAMEUI much, but I have noticed that lately, although the main settings have remained the same, many things no longer go as they used to.

MY PROBLEM:
- SWITCH IMG GAMES ALL SCREEN
- BEZELS OFF
- SCALINES (CRT EFFECT)

I download the updated emulator and keep the main .INI files where my historical settings are saved.
I also deleted all my .INIs and reconfigured everything from the beginning but the problems I will describe continue.

- SWITCH IMG TO THE SCREEN
Once upon a time it was very simple to prevent the frames (BEZEL) around the games from collapsing.
ENFORCE ASPECTIO RATIO I remember that it means that the image of the game even if I change the settings must maintain the aspect ratio, right?

- SWITCH RESOLUTION TO FIT from what I remember should PERMANENTLY enlarge the game image to full screen while maintaining the aspect ratio.

Years ago it worked perfectly, now it has no effect
Even if I change the setting of the INDIVIDUAL game (there is no save option), when I close the game and restart it, the games do not remember my changes. Previously it was enough to use the 2 settings mentioned above so that all games were automatically full screen and without BEZEL.
To eliminate the BEZELs just change the name of the ATWORK folder by adding _ but years ago it was very simple and there was no need to adopt this trick.

- STAIRS
As I always did and you can do it now too, select the PNG file I like and it should overlay the CRT effect I chose on the game.
I saved a PNG from an old version called 75D etc.... and I called it GIUSTO.PNG ...
I select it as always but when I start a game, the LINES=CRT are not there and I notice two oddities.
1st - the game's .INI file is created in the MAMEUI ROOT and not in the specific folder as happened years ago
2nd - if I open this .INI file I don't find it written:
SCREEN RIGHT (the name I gave it) but the name of the PNG file given to it by programmers years ago... HOW IS IT POSSIBLE?
It is present in the MAME.INI file
RIGHT SCREEN
how do you generate a game ini file with an ORIGINAL name of the PNG and not the one modified by me?

Ps:One last thing
Game 1943 is a VERTICAL game, once the STAIRS did not follow the orientation of the game but I could always keep them HORIZONTAL.
HORIZONTAL is better
How do I keep the STAIRS ALWAYS HORIZONTAL regardless of the direction of the game?
