Cabmame 0.147

[Rallyace]

I used Cabmame recently for the first time and it is excellent. Will an updated version (i.e. 0.147) be released soon?


Thanks

Just tried Canmame 0.146 and soundsync does not work correcly. The sound in R-Type and Kund Fu Master are all over the place. I had been using Cabmame 0.141 and the sound was perfect. Has this not yet been fixed since 0.145u2?
Will Soundsync be fixed for 0.147?

Soundsync works fine for me.

I just tested the 32bit version of Cabmame 0.146 on a second computer with different hardware and got exactly the same problem with the sound in both R-Type and Kung Fu Master. I tried standard Mame 0.146 and the sound for those games is fine, so there is definately an issue with Soundsync with the 32bit version of Cabmame 0.146. I also tried Cabmame 0.141 and the sound is perfect in those games. I am running Windows XP SP3 32bit. The hardware is completely different on the two computers I tried this on, but I got the same issue. These are my settings:-

Please see the thread below regarding the Soundsync issue.

I just tried R-Type and Kung Fu Master with CabMAME 0.146 and I did not notice any problems with it. R-Type is running absolutely fluid on my system without any sound issues. Kung Fu Master is a little bit jerky but also no sound problems. I'm using sync to screen, triple buffer and throttle is turned on. Also using an arcade monitor here (Hantarex 9110), JPAC and an AMD X4 640 with a ArcadeVGA (HD2400).

I did not find the "60 Hz" option in the sliders control. How can this be activated?

[Rallyace]

Soundsync fix's the sound issues is some games, but causes problems in others. Is it possible to disable soundsync in the .ini file for certian games? i.e. in kungfum.ini. Soundsync 0 and Disable_Soundsync 1 do not work?

[haynor666]

I do not see any option in source so probably there isn't any. Try to use MAMEFX for some games.

BTW. I hope 148 hacks will be soon.

[haynor666]

Are there any plans for version 151? It's a lot time since version 146.
