Mame ini Tips:

NOTE: When making adjustments to your mame.ini file, make sure you don't have per game.ini files located within /mame/ini folder as these game specific ini files take higher priority over the default mame.ini. Also, before making any changes please make a backup so you can always revert if you make multiple changes and break something.

If you find that one changing one or all of these settings work. I suggest either making a separate ini file for that specific game or including it in the per game rom settings within RLUI.

Saving separate ini files per game/rom:

Save a copy of the adjusted ini to /mame/ini folder with the rom name of the game. eg. /mame/ini/dkong.ini for donkey kong

You can then further edit this ini file to only include the things you want to change specifically for this game.
