ALLRIGHT!! THANKS!! it works! but much faster...
I modified first the args and it works immediately but faster, then I modified the emulator as you both said to me. I noticed burgertime run faster than normal, maybe it's a wrong roms I have.
Switchres Works!!! both in fullscreen and windowed.
In everycase the TAB key in AM gives me limited options, in english. In mame64 give me the complete menu in italian..

Attract mode is in Q:\AttractMode261\

Hi Hermine, thanks a lot for your answer.
Honestly I don't know anything about plugins. I think I leave all of them turned off.
when I start a romfile with mame direct from commandline evetything is ok. It give me the switchres message and the rom starts with it's own resolution.

Hi eveybody. I noticed that using mame standalone everything is ok, including switchres with groovymame.
The same mame in Attract mode doesnt switch the resolution in vertical games. I'm running Attract mode in windows 10 and the crt is an old tv.
Games like frogger, galaxians, burgertime start with pixel corrupted, if I start them in mame64 alone they works.
Otherwise games like Cadillacs and dinosaurs, double dragon they works in both mode.. even on Am even in mame standalone.
Also the TAB key is different.. in mame showme the machine info and video options, in Attract mode only few options.
Can you help to understand? maybe the mame.ini? I don't know where is the mistake.
I include some picture showing the different tab key between AM and mame64.exe and some pixels in too much low res in two frogs of frogger.
Thanks a lot
