If you want switchres custom resolutions for all games except mk, set you mame.ini back to monitor custom Then create a game specific config file mk.ini and put your customisations in that. E.g. monitor generic_15 This will make mk load without switchres making up a custom resolution on the...

Hi George. It looks like you are doing everything correct there. Is 2560x240 one of the available desktop resolutions in Windows? (If not add it from vmmaker.exe). This is the line in mame.ini to avoid using the custom timings: monitor generic_15 (Usually it's monitor custom) Adding interlace...

surely nobody is buying 20 year old electronics without the knowledge on how to format an sd card and copy a file over. nevermind how to use an oscilloscope or soldering iron. It's like a classic card enthusiast having no clue how to work on an engine. If you are reading this and that's you...

Rude to the seller perhaps but nice for buyers to know the true value and recognise unintentional shilling. There is a gap in the Internet for a discogs.com for games and arcade pcb's to see the going rate.

sheep_nova on ebay:

Folks sorry but this is insane. Cps3 boards are plentiful in Japan. Are people reselling for profit? The forum mods should charge resellers here. I paid €316 a few weeks ago + 40 delivery and taxes + 80 for bluescsi + 60 for 128mb ram + 100 for darksoft cart. Total with delivery 580€

Yes all I found earlier was this website for NGDev: https://www.ngdevdirect.com/ but no downloads are available for sale. I guess they don't like money? I got the bitmapbureau one OK.

Ordered one. Got to support the devs! Darksoft, what are the chances of adding support for the cd games in a firmware update or new hardware revision in this batch? Also is it possible to buy the official roms for the ng:dev games and have them added to the firmware? You can buy xenocrisis...

If you could get switchres dynamic EDID modes working, your videoamp device would be the best option out there. At is stands it's really excellent with 2560x240 60hz as that suits most games and systems. Have you spoken with calamity about the possibility of full switchres integration? He was...

Folks, is anyone else using this videoamp device? I think it's great for hooking any computer up to a CRT. Tiny little device plug in and go. No need to have dedicated PC with ATI card and emudriver. This works with any PC or laptop with any graphics card. Even supports groovymame and...

You can actually get a good few entries from arcade fixer on the wayback machine. It seems only the home page was indexed but if you navigate the dates on the top right you can go back several years. E.g. July 2021 http://web.archive.org/web/20210707165027/http://arcadefixer.blogspot.com/ Then...

A chap from Australia (Apocalypse?) used to have a fantastic blog with many many pcb repairs documented. Hundreds. http://arcadefixer.blogspot.com/ Unfortunately it was taken down. The wayback machine has minimal content indexed...

Thanks for saving it. Such a great resource. More arcade websites here: https://www.arcade-projects.com/threads/what-other-arcade-related-websites-do-you-browse.27649/ Also a treasure trove of schematics here: https://arcarc.xmission.com/ (maybe these are best suited to the pld archive site?)

Bluescsi works fine here. Got this going myself only a few weeks ago. I tried both 50pin desktop with cable version and the smaller 25pin variant with this adapter: https://itead.cc/product/scsi2-50pin-to-scsi1-db25-adapter/ Both worked great but the small 25pin was very neat. Copy the iso...

A repro of anything is possible. A chap in the UK did full repro PCB of Mr Do just for fun: https://www.ukvac.com/forum/threads/mr-do-appreciation-pcb-redesign.78155/page-6
