mame not running in full screen

[ValterUK]

Hello! This might be a bit off topic but, still I will have a go at it. I am trying to play MAME in window mode, not full screen. I just downloaded a 64-bit version of the emulator and it works fine in full screen. As soon you open the .exe file it goes straight to full screen.

I tried to look inside the emulator menus for options to play it windowed but had no luck. I remember in the past the emulator was like a program with tabs in a window where you have all the options to it.

Should I try to download another version of MAME? Would it be a time waste? Am I missing something? Help would be much appreciated cause I really need to play batman (1990) game to make a review for my blog but really is making my life hard having it in Full Screen.

If you know a link for an MAME that works windowed please let me know here. Kinds regards

VUK

what happens if you include -window in your command line?

example:

>mame64 pacman -window

Make sure you've also checked start out maximised and in the 'screen' tab make sure the resolution setting is set to auto so it will run at the same screen res as your desktop. This doesn't make the games run in higher resolutions as mame will scale them.
