Thalamus Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Huh. pinmame.exe --listxml = no output. Anyone else ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider CarnyPriest Posted December 5, 2016 Content Provider Share Posted December 5, 2016 Yes, it appears the build is bad. The last one where I can get output is v2.43 on 10/31. Use that one. Not many new sets uploaded since then, but they are verified good through Setup --> Test. I have not been able to achieve a build at all on pinmame.exe since 11/5.

Hi Thalamus - I don't know if you caught Toxie's message but he's asking if you can test his official VPM build to see if it has a performance problem or not on your system. It seems both Carny and I build with 2015, so we want to know if you have a problem with Toxie's 2013 build. You won't get Sam from his build of course, but it will help us determine the best method for official builds. http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=27063&page=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalamus Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Sure. I'll get right on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalamus Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 If you linked correctly to an updated on vpf - well, then it is no go. I believe you wanted me to eg. test Surf'n Safari because its been compiled by toxie ? - I didn't find any msg from toxie asking, thats why I'm unsure It has same - if not more studder and problems. ( hard to tell really - its bad ) btw. the short test - looks only to be related to sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxie Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 is it also the case with an old VPM? (e.g. http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=11571) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thalamus Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 No, there is no problem with sound or gampeplay with official 2.7 - only me being unhappy for downgrading to slow flipper ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peskopat Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 As many people , i had many sluttering sounds on SMB and a few others tables , vsync is actived in vpx , last vp10 beta 2857 , and vpinmame 2.45c ok , can you have a look on this problem please , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebrand007 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hello, I have the same stutter issue on Super Mario VPX 1.2 or 1.3 since I updated to the latest 2.45 b or 2.45c vpinmame (if I revert back to 2.27 it works fine). I'm running VPX10.2 rev 2847, on a win7 64 bit machine. Let us know if we can test some tweaks or if you need further information. It seems that these sound loop issues happen on a couple of other tables according to another user (scared stiff / circus voltaire) but I didn't experience this myself.

toxie Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 as there is not much movement usually on the official VPM thread: could somebody please test pistol poker if it releases the ball on game start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebrand007 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Thanks Thalamus for the suggestion. I uninstalled vpinmame / reinstalled the 112816 vpinmame, but still have sound repeating itself on super mario . I noticed that it seemed a bit less pronounced than with 2.45c, though.

Hi Toxie, I tried my build, Carny's build, and your beta VPM build. Pistol Poker works fine on all of them for me. I even checked R01 and R02 of the ROM. All good. 10 minutes ago, firebrand007 said: Thanks Thalamus for the suggestion. I uninstalled vpinmame / reinstalled the 112816 vpinmame, but still have sound repeating itself on super mario .

I exposed a new setting in the VPinmame registry you can try disabling. Just run the attached .reg file. If you are using ddraw=0 keep in mind that the newer VPM builds need a LOT more cpu than they used to. lltoff.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJRobX Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 So, I built Thalamus new build from Carny's repo using VC2010 and he reports that it works fine, where Carny's and my 2015 builds stutter. https://www.dropbox.com/home?preview=vpm120616-2010.zip So building with Visual Studio 2010 seems to be the "magic sauce" for his system.

DJRobX Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 FYI, I've updated the first post of this thread with the VPM, B2S, and DOF builds that are related to my changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider CarnyPriest Posted December 7, 2016 Content Provider Share Posted December 7, 2016 Well, I was working on this build anyway. The only difference with VPM from the DJRobX build is the compiler. This used VS2015. It might be good to see why there are performance issues for some and not others based on compiler or compiler settings. The zip contains the latest dmddevice builds from the official source.
