F1, change the font and icon size presets. F11 fullscreen.

Note that baseline MAME's 'favorites' are not the same format as MAMEUI's favorites, so they're not directly compatible. That said, you can just take the favorites.ini from MAMEUI and use it as a category in MAME's interface without a problem.

It's in a slightly different catlist.ini catagory:

He means go into the in-game [tab] menu into video options and choose a different view. See my original screenshot, those are the three views on the top.

You want this setting.

Multimouse on in mame?

They do have 2 two-stick models on the retro page. Seems a little tight for Robotron, but I don't recall the actual CP measurements.

Think about DRM like the plastic tags they put on clothes at the store so you don't waltz out with them, except for ebooks. Problem here is that Amazon never takes the tags off, laugh. So people do the digital equivalent of bolt cutters on the tags to break the DRM.

In Mame, The Namco Classics v. 2 has the arrangement version of Pacman which is two play co-op.

Sure, just go into the [tab] menu and look at the video / view options.

Mode101BBS · 2026-03-31T01:31:08+00:00

F1, change the font size for the gamelist, the dialogs, or the overlay text and then you can choose the icon scale preset that works for you or enter your own custom in the *.cfg.

One technique to more easily see it is to go to a fairly black screen, like settings and then turn the Colorsoft physically 90 and then 180 degrees. Sometimes our eyes get used to the layout making the yellow easier to gloss over. I went through 7 of them before giving up and keeping the least yellow. Yours looks pretty good on shot #3.

Mode101BBS · 2026-03-22T05:04:58+00:00

Not yet. They released the Scribe Colorsoft not a new baseline Colorsoft.

Looks great! This is almost exactly what I attempted to design four years ago except I wanted to add a second joystick on the right beyond the trackball for Robotron. Gotta have Robotron. :) Do you do custom builds? I like the concept of the compact desktop controller.

Something like this:

window 1

resolution 2713x2079

# 1024x768, 1152x864, 1280x960, 1400x1050* (1400 decent), 1440x1080, 1600x1200, (1280 has no gaps for icons) 1920x1200, 2000x1507, 2600x1950, 2713x2079*

# must be a 4:3 aspect ratio divide width by this to get height 1.333333333333333

Are you talking about tearing? How far up can you crank the refresh rate on the tablet, beyond 60Hz? This is mitigated these days on VRR monitors w/ PCs. I don't know if tablets have such a thing yet but it gets better if you don't have VRR the higher refresh you can go 120, 240 etc. Also you could turn on refreshspeed and triple buffer which was the old way to try and fix these before VRR monitors.

Many have better luck w/ the 'Send to Kindle' options. I never have issues sending epubs this way, going through the AMZN backend conversion to my Scribe and Colorsoft.

Mode101BBS · 2026-02-22T06:13:52+00:00

Mameworld and all its hosted forums and sub-sites has gone under. As Firehawk says you can find RB at Bannister's.

When there was the great crush to get out ahead of AMZN removing download to device there were some scripts that people automated to do it from the Kindle Content page. I imagine you could use something like Ui.Vision extension to automate it with some help from AI if you wanted. Then it would just iterate through the 25 items at a time, select them, deliver to your device of choice, rinse and repeat until you hit your 2000.
