Advance mame not working in attract mode
« on: March 08, 2017, 07:06:35 AM »
So randomly today any rom that's uses advance mame emulator will not launch propley in attract mode. When I launch the game I can hear the sound and I can tell the contoller is working but the display is just frozen on the attract mode screen. Any other emulators work fine.

I quit out and tested the same roms using advance mame on emulation station and that worked fine any ideas?

Thanks

Follow afafox's advice. It's correct for the Pi. It's in the Raspberry Pi F.A.Q http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=1249.0

Configure-->General-->Window Mode = Fullscreen Mode
