Database file is available here.

amazing! but "no longer available" :( can you or someone please re-upload to somewhere better? i have a little project this would work out amazingly for.

UDb23

@dankcushions I also added FBA resolution db, therefore link changed;sorry.
Update db link here

thanks! but i have a question/request: is it possible to include the aspect ratio in these files? i ask because not all arcade games have square pixels. something like dodonpachi dai ou jou is 224x448 pixels, but still a 3:4 aspect ratio (rather than 1:2 as you might presume from the pixels). i need this for my little project but maybe it's useful for you also.

aspect ratio is included in -listinfo for mame 0.78 (windows binary). eg:

ie - this line:

here it is in XML and TXT format.

i also did the same for fba (i downloaded current fba for windows and did fba -listextrainfo > fba027939info.txt

eg:

ssf2	384x224	4:3	0x07010000	"CPS2"	1	2	8	2	"(null)"

fba027939info.txt

(these might also be better datasources for some of your other information)

@dankcushions ok. I will modify my tool to extract the aspect ratio info from the files you provided and add it to my resolution db files. Should be able to do it tomorrow.

UDb23

@dankcushions Created new Resolution DB file for Mame .78 that includes also AspectX, AspectY and Frequency (last 3 values of each row).
File available in post below.

Had no time to do extensive checking of the data; please let me know if you find any inconsistencies.

Will create FBA DB version soon.

thanks! this is perfect :) i found a few (10) missing games in the resolution_db file, and one new one, when compared to the mame 0.78 gamelist (assuming i've no mistakes in that!). i created a diff for these here: https://www.diffchecker.com/BIfCOcFT

any ideas?

UDb23

@dankcushions With over 4700 having only 10 missing seems a good result! :-))
Jokes aside let me check and I'll come back to you.
My tool combines data from different sources including scraping some data from progettoemma's website.
Anyway if only 10 or 11 being different, easiest think is I check&Add them manually to the file.

UDb23

@dankcushions
Fixed!

Acpsx (my list) and Cvs (your list) seem to be both bios files: removed them.
Galpanicb (galspanica in newer mame releases), Jdreddb, Natodefa, S1945* (all 6 versions) added to DB.

Updated Mame .78 Resolution DB (Res info about 4720 ROMs): here

i was bored so i did it :) this is with a pretty unsophisticated excel trick so you might want to generate it yourself anyway to be sure! i think it's correct though.

fba resolution db + aspect ratios = here

UDb23

@dankcushions Well done, thanks.
Lately used up my free time to create new overlays: Moon Cresta and Marvel vs Capcom.
New Rally X also coming (by request).

In the weekend I'll check the FBA list.

UDb23

@dankcushions So I finally managed to find time to create the FBA res db too; the FBA txt file structure far easier than the mame one... and yes.. excel makes it even easier.
BTW your FBA list includes over double number of roms compared to the list provided by @Rion.

Also updated the .78 db file as I found & removed some more bios files in there.

Download both here.

cool! thanks!

yeah FBA is a bit strange with how it treats gamelists. from memory, the .dat files only include working games, but the gamelist/info outputs all games, including ones that only have preliminary emulation (load and then do nothing, mostly) or don't work at all.

garion

is it possible an horizontal versión of "Final Arcade 4:3" with less reflexions?, like "final arcade generic vertical no-scratches"

all works fine. Excellent job.

windale

@Rion Is there any change you could make these for 720p please ? It gives bad framerates on a lot of games at 1080p including simple games like 1942 ! (Using a stock speed Pi 3).

Rion

@windale Sure but you can do it yourself. Look here

I don't know what's going on in that post but thanks anyway.

red2blue

so with this can i just move the config files to FB Alpha instead of mame2003? will it work?
