MAME WideScreen

[TP1125]

I just ordered a Dell 2005FPW and was wondering if MAME supports WS or if theres a hack to make it run WS? If so how does it look?

It says in the sticky about non widescreen games that it does not support widescreen. But I do not think that any arcade games were ever written for wide screen..... except Darius which had an aspect ratio of approx 36:9 (it used three monitors placed in a row).

As far as I know Virtua Racing has a 16:9 mode. Pretty cool for a 1992 arcade game!.

Mame32/plus/Fx can strech using hardware to any specific aspect ratio.
