Help with Tekken Tag Tekken Tag

[Stevi G]

Yestarday i downloaded Tekken Tag for MAME..............
Bt the problem is that when i start the game with MAME 132 it works but it runs rather slow.

When i emulate the game usng mame 32 fx it does nt work.


Can anybody plz tell me y my tekken works slow on on my pc????
And hw i can make run faster???




Thanks in advance

Same as the answer to your other 2 questions. Your PC is way under powered for modern emulators and later versions of Mame.

Either get a newer faster PC or use versions of Mame lower than 0.106 (at this point they did some major rewrites that sent the system spec through the roof).

In any version of Mame your current PC won't run modern titles like Tekken TAG with a playable framerate.

Well i ran the game on my cousin's laprtop and it still ran slow......
His laptops specs are:

Proccer 2.80 GHz
RAM 512
Graphic Card 512 mb

With just half a meg of Ram it will do. 3D games in Mame currently require decent dual core processors and at least 2Gb of Ram. If you aren't running a decent, modern PC you won't get playable frame rates.

But when i ran Tekken Tag on my cousins laptop on a PS2 emulator i worked as though it was running on xbox 360.

You're not running a PS2 emulator on your cousins laptop, you're running Mame on your PC and for the reasons already detailed that's why its not working.

There is no magic solution, the emulators work the way they work and without better hardware you're not going to get a satisfactory result...end of.

What does this have to do with mame??? If you are under the impression you can measure the ability to emulate a mame game by the ability to emulate a ps2 game, you need to seriously read up.

Yes they are the same games, but the emulation techniques are way different. Ps2 emulators use a lot of hardware acceleration and mame is specific to accurate emulation. The mame team clearly states time and time again, we dont aim to give you speed, we aim to emulate it accurately. There is no acceleration in mame at all. Projects such as Zinc do this.. but takken tag is not among the working. Even if you have a mame emulator on a ps2 emulator running takken tag at full speed you can be guaranteed it will do that on a computer. Apples to oranges my friend, Apples to oranges...

A 4 gig dual core may get you playable speeds with takken tage, if it runs.. But at that, dual core is not "really" support in mame. It is just beginning.

Not to Mention Tekken Tag Tournament isn't fully emulated in mame yet anyway. (although you can get a stable framerate with a balls-out system).
