Mame360 For Retail Consoles
« Reply #30 on: January 16, 2010, 12:49:00 AM »

Hey guys

Can anyone tell me in the following games run full speed.

Mortal Kombat 2
NBA Jam
Primal Rage
Street fighter Alpha 3

If not could it be due to the Xbox's CPU not be utilized properly?

Thanks

Funny I just tried 3 of those. I can't find an MK2 that runs good but I did see a video of it running better then mine.
Street Fighter Alpha 1,2 and 3 run fine.
The first SFA3 rom I found didn't run that good but the one I have now runs fine.

NBA Jam runs fine but NBA Hangtime ran slow with no sound.

I haven't tried Primal Rage.

Thank you for replying smile.gif

Not this video is it.

even SSF2 looked slow lol


Found this video quite good how it compares XB1 vs. X360 http://www.dailymoti...-360_videogames

I find it hard to believe MK2 will not run full speed with sound.

I guess the Mame emulator need's to be optimised.

I've Been looking over the specs of the CPU in the 360 wow its big diff over the original.

With Mame do you always have to go back to dash once you exit a rom?

MK1 worked good with sound, MK2 did work but slowly. had to disable sound to run game full speed.

So I find it hard to belive the xbox 360 can't run that game full speed.

i ve been wanting to do this for a long time now... fixed it with game:/ solutionn... i didnt want to do this before since i had it packaged but now with xexmenu autodetect feature this is the way to go... could have solved it using quickboot but in the long run i think that solution would be obsolete...

I have mame360 on my external usb drive, and have the folder Emus\Mame\roms inside the mame360 folder.

have changed the ini file so all the paths are as game:Emus\Mame\roms etc. and have created all the other folders as in the ini file.

If I load mame up it shows some roms (just a couple of test ones at the moment) which I select and the screen goes black, then briefly flashes up a loading bar which looks to get to 100%. Then the screen goes black again and after a few seconds it goes back to the mame menu.

Any ideas whats going on or wrong ?

You're not reading closely enough.

When you change your .ini to game:\* you don't need to put in the full path any more like game:\emus\mame\roms...

if you use game:\*, Mame will take "game" as the folder it's being run from, and everything is below that.

go back to the post on page 2 for a correctly formated .ini

It's worth noting that this is the only build of MAME360 that I've found, and it's over 2 years old. If you read the posts of the time, it appears to be a proof of concept. It's not hard to believe there's no optimization. What we need is somebody to update to the latest port, and optimize a bit.

Alas, I haven't seen any thread of people volunteering to do this, so we may be waiting a while.

Left trigger plus A brings up MAME in-game menu, Left trigger plus push RS brings you back to MAME rom list

Ok read everything on this thread. Here is my problem.

I am using MAME360 XEX. I have my roms on a DVD. I have run the XEX from HDD and USB and have edited the options.ini file. I can not get a list of my roms  to come up.

Is it possible to read the roms off of a DVD in MAME360.

DVD Example Structure:
DVD:\Rom 1\Games
DVD:\Rom 2\Games
Etc.

Line from options.ini:
rompath = dvd:\

What am I missing? Thanks for your help.

Thanks for replying coreyinoz smile.gif

Yeah it appears no one's showing a lot of interest sad.gif. It's funny I mainly got a Jtag xbox just for MAME and SNES tongue.gif.

I'm tried Mortal Kombat 1,2,3

MK1 full speed
MK2 43/53FPS
MK3 42/53FPS

So hoping that once someone becomes interested, they can optimise the emulator a bit so these become fully playable smile.gif

Dude you have to check out the xbox 1 forums, especially the emulator forums if you want some good HD console/arcade emulation. There's "alot of interest " there.

Modding an original xbox is worlds easier than the 360. It doesn't sound like MAME360 is not very user friendly at all unsure.gif

does anyone know if mame360 is alive? i think someone should make a new mame emulator for xbox 360, its dispointing if this doesnt get updates, cause it could be better than it is.

mame360 is also kind of old. there are a lot of new mame releases after that 360 release.

OK I have a jtaged console running mame360 via hdd1:\Content\0000000000000000\C0DE0006\00080000\C0DE00060C0DE000 I can't get it to see the rom path. I have the roms here hdd1:\mame\roms and the ini looks like this:

rompath = game:\mame\roms
samplepath = game:\mame\samples
cfg_directory = game:\mame\cfg
nvram_directory = game:\mame\nvram
memcard_directory = game:\mame\memcard
input_directory = game:\mame\inp
state_directory = game:\mame\sta
artpath = game:\mame\artwork
snapshot_directory = game:\mame\snap
diff_directory = game:\mame\diff
ctrlrpath = game:\mame\ctrlr
comment_directory = game:\mame\comments
cheat_file = game:\mame\cheat.dat
title_path = game:\mame\titles

autoframeskip = 0

So what am I doing wrong?

Not sure what's happening there mate.

THis is how I got my games to run.

I installed the emu to the xbox's HDD content folder.

I just then put my roms into USB:/emus/mame/roms and it works fine for me.

Biggest problem I'm having is getting the snaps I take to work with the roms.

I placed the snaps I take are in USB:/emus/mame/snaps and still will not show any suggestions guys?

Thanks

Josh

That kinda worked... It saw the roms ,but when I try to launch it will do nothing, but go back to the mame menu, Might not like my usb thumb drive. Christ mame is a pain to get working correctly.

hehe thanks.
