Realize that it won't help MAME any more though. Radeon 9000 64mb is fine for mame, and completely affordable. RAM is kind of important, IE: nothing below 500mb PC2100 DDR Motherboard generally doesn't matter, just get something decent - an ASUS board for instance.

I built a PC to do many things, and one of them was running my favorte and important arcade games at full-rate. I've played it on multiple different hardware configuations and following MAME is one of my many technical hobbies. I remember when Mortal Kombat 2 emulation was very preliminary. I've been using MAME since somewhere around 37beta13-14. If most of you're fun comes from emulators, trust me, throw most of your PC spending budget towards CPUs. Your pc is at that level where small little tweaks will gain you some, but like I say, unfortunately you can't play a game requiring 1-1.2ghz on a 800mhz CPU. Video cards do almost nothing for MAME, sorry. I'd like to look into an arcade monitor for accuracy, but a 4:3 is as close as you'll get. I play MAME, and all of my emulators on my 36' Sony Vega, and put sound through my B&Ws. Playing the games on authentc controllers is nice too, btw. The SNES hardware doesn't even compare - I have the MK1 board set actually. The arcade versions over the SNES versions most certainly. I'd say no less than a 1.4ghz AMD cpu for the MK series, and for the Killer Instinct stuff no less than 2ghz, especially for KI2. There are games in MAME that require probably over 10,000mhz CPUs.

Killert Instcint 1 and 2 aren't even full speed on my 1,670mhz CPU.

Maybe you can obtain a positive result changing advanced parameters at the asoundrc alsa configuration file.Mortal Kombat 2-Ultimate 3 require around at least a 1ghz for close to perfect frame rate. I think the audio latency option will only help delaying the write_position once it reaches the stream_in pointer, then the write_position will not go sufficiently back, the same what happens with latency set to 1. If it's the same problem I have, I don't know if its possible to change this at SDL layer.

Because nobody else was reporting the problem I thought about faults that might exist at some driver of my Linux setup.

When this happens with the mainline windows build, these 'jumps' or 'echoed' sound happen, to me are less annoying than the cracking sound, but even rising audio latency of sdlmame/sdlmess doesn't give the same result.

When the speed is below 100% the sound should be slower to match emulation, I think, but it wants to play with normal speed instead. I didn't find a way to change the SDL sound handling to minimize the problem. In some cases the buffer of sound card is not filled, in others the pointer of stream buffer is increased, then the buffer contains empty data between sound data. Some months ago I was trying to debug sdlmess, and saw by the logged sound info that at speeds below 100% sound card/driver was asking more data than the emulation core was providing. I have this problem here: 100% gives good sound, but below that gives cracking sound because of buffer underruns, even with emulation running at speeds like 98%. Do you have good speed with other 3D apps? How many FPS at glxgears? Could you post the output of 'glxinfo | grep 'direct rendering''? Try with '-video soft' to see if the problem happens only with OpenGL. Snapshot_directory /var/games/sdlmame/snapД¬omment_directory /var/games/sdlmame/commentsД¬ould you run with '-verbose' and post the output? I guess your emulation speed is not reaching 100% for some reason. Memcard_directory /var/games/sdlmame/memcard Samplepath $HOME/.mame/samples /usr/local/share/games/sdlmame/samplesДЄrtpath $HOME/.mame/artwork /home/gargamel/artworkДЇontpath /var/games/sdlmame /usr/share/games/sdlmame Rompath $HOME/.mame/roms /home/gargamel/MAMEroms So, What the F*ck do the mame Team always change thing to improve sound in 3D games and other bad games that really sucks, and decrease driver quality in goods games that worked perfectly? The sound in most midway games is crackling. Then I installed SDLMAme that works flawlessly and far faster than crappy MAMUI Windarf Vista Edition.Д«ut i have a little problem with SDLMAME (and i m pretty sure that is not a problem related to SDLMAME) It pissed me off so far, that i formated those microsoft deep crap and switched to Ubuntu 7.10. Tryied with Windows XP, Windows Xp 64, different mame version, nothing worked. Killer instinct and lot of other games started to make 'jumps' in the sound then the sound completely crashes.had to restart the emulators every times.

Then update to the new 'MAMEUI 122'.troubles started. I was using Windows Vista and Mame 32 115 for a while.
