How to record Badlands

Post by Zip »

I can't get Badlands to record .inp files. I use m37b14 Dos souund on. Is there a trick to getting this game to record properly? Thanks.

Well I've just recorded and successfully played back a Badlands game
using Windows MAME37b16, the commands were:<br><br>
"D:MAMEmamew.exe badlands -record badlands -resolution 1x1 -hws"
to record, and<br>
"D:MAMEmamew.exe badlands -playback badlands -resolution 1x1 -hws"
to playback<br><br>
Sound was on and frameskipping was off, set in the mame.ini file. So
now you can for my first place, good luck mate :-).

And here's a tip for the new Windows MAME which works for me. Use
the argument "-resolution 1x1" or any other specific resolution to
get a crisper display rather than the default "-resolution auto".

Also try experimenting using either "-hws" (hardware stretching) or "-
nohws" to make games run at 100%. "-hws" is good for some games like
Badlands while "-nohws" is good for others like Space Invaders and it
really does make a difference to the speed.

Cheers
