Thanks for the reply.
With respect, the video mode can be changed "all the time" within the UI, you simply set the default to whatever you want.
So making it default to BGFX is possible - but what I don't get is that menu option when I do so.
I might be off-the-wall here, but I'd have thought that now a UI is built in, its feature set would mirror anything done from the command-line. They ought to go hand-in-hand. Why would they let them diverge? Isn't this the very essence of having a built in UI?
I realize people get upset when I write such things, but it just seems to me to be absurd to expect, in 2016, people to use the command line. It's not a lack of expertise in executing code from the CMD Prompt that is the issue, it's just old school for no reason. It's horribly inefficient.
Just my 2 cents.
EDIT: I just checked MAMEUIFX64 for .171, and under "Open GL Shaders" it allows you to choose various groups of shadows..... it's the kind of thing I'd of thought belonged in the Mame UI.......
