RE: zvg settings and issues

Oops, my bad. I have MAME .100 also, but was under the impression that
someone was still building DOS versions.

I am a little behind.... sorry.

Except that ZVG needs DOS... I'm using MAME .100 (the last DOS MAME version
I believe) so in re: to Toms post, I'm only 255 versions behind ;-)

Also I'm using a combo of PS/2 (keyboard) and USB (mouse/spinner) in DOS,
but it wasnt easy to get there, lots of trial and error with
different motherboards, different encoders. Probably better off to
just hack and older PS/2 mouse.

Speaking of fixing things- The rotation in Zektor... could be my setup but
the left rotation is clearly faster than the right... :-(
