![]() v173 is coming in about 98%, even with autoframeskip enabled, etc. I use mmpork, ibara, and pinkswts to test the speed of the emulator, and typically come in at 99% with v172. IM(Humble)O, there are few reasons to upgrade from 172, and the speed of 173 seems to be slightly slower (about 1% on average) on the most demanding roms. I actually had to pull the folder from my recycle bin after reading a post discussing the release earlier. Secondly - I'm not a huge fan of this release. I'll be honest - I compile this for my system and dinput/64 bit is what I got. I had some requests after my v172 post to compile versions with raw input, or in 32bit. If you've slaved over your current video settings to get them "just right" or like BGFX, then don't use my preset folder, generate a new mame.ini with the 173 mame64.exe and populate manually it as needed with your current mame.ini contents. MY HLSL settings are here in their full glory if you want them, or trash them and use your own - what ever you prefer. Unzip it somewhere safe, populate it with the contents of your current artwork, cfg, nvram, diff, roms, and preset folders and you're off and running. To help make this even easier, and based on some requests last time I posted this, I zipped the entire package for you and it's ready to go as-is. A "hi" folder must be created for your high-score storage, and a "hiscore.dat" must be placed in the MAME root directory. Changing them in the mame.ini won't do much, as the presets "raster.ini" and "vector.ini" take priority over any common settings. Remember, too, that the HLSL settings for raster and vector games (which covers just about every arcade game ever made) are in the "presets" folder. The mame.ini file has ALSO changed AGAIN, with some mame-induced changes and some from the no-nag patch, so re-create it with a mame64 -cc command and adjust accordingly if you don't like the included one. At the very least, you must install the 173 package from the mamedev site, then overwrite your mame64.exe with the one included here. As such, just overwriting your old pre-v173 mame64.exe with this new one will cause a lua script error at boot. MAME has once again updated files in the installation package, specifically in the "plugin" directory. 64bit MAME 173 patched with no-nag, no white windows, hi-score and forced direct input.
