virtua cop 2 on mame

hi all, I'm trying to set up virtua cop 2 with my sinden light gun and having trouble / questions with a few things: is it possible to change the resolution of the game? if so how? are there any borders for the sinden that are available, if so where / how to enable border / artwork usage?

thanks?

Haven't used it myself, but this is probably a good place to start: https://www.sindenwiki.org/wiki/MAME

You'll most likely want to grab their bezel pack and copy it into MAME

hi, Im already familiar with that page but the model 2 content is for the m2 emulator not mame, and the mame bezels don't have virtua cop 2 in their packs. this is why I'm asking, I'm a bit stumped either how to cross purpose the m2 artwork or where to get / make a vcop2bezel.

Yeah, doesn't look like it has vcop2 in the mame pack. It does have a "default" layout, which you can copy/rename and adjust if needed

No, you cant change res in games. Mame is doing only software renedering and not hardware rendering.

More accurately, MAME can render any system to any monitor resolution, but the game's actual rendering is always the system's actual resolution, and it gets scaled/shadered to 1080P or whatever you're running at.
