IRIX emulation is here!

I am back, and testing.

I not forget to run my real indy and see the PROM configuration, but the problem is my time.

How to show the new machine emulation SGI types, in mame64 prompt? (the syntax is changed!!!).

In Indy emulation (using: ".\mame64 indy_4613 -gio64_gfx xl24 -hard1 .\roms\irix62.chd -window -resolution 1280x1024"), the screen is half to down.

Using: ".\mame64 indy_4613 -gio64_gfx xl24 -hard1 .\roms\irix62.chd" the error appears:

To show the available SGI machines in MAME open Terminal/PowerShell in the main directory and type "./mame64 sgi" and it'll print all SGI machines. Your other options are fine but you should use the 100MHz Indy (4610) and not the 133MHz version (4613). The 100MHz CPU will perform better. Using "-cheat" also helps performance for me. To fix the issue with the login screen you need to click "stop for maintenance" when booting and get into the PROM settings. Go to the console and type "setenv monitor h" and that will fix the display issues by setting it to 1280x1024 in the PROM, which I think is passed to the OS on boot. Also you need to do "setenv -f eaddr 08:00:69:12:34:56" or else it'll kernel panic. This should get you to the desktop.

Wait... That's all it takes? I spent an entire week looking for a solution and it appears I only need to input a console command? Thank You. I probably would have never figured it out...

Hopefully in 2020 we will see more commits to this. I'd love to see an Indy running at near full speed.

RE: IRIX emulation is here!
For those looking to get IRIX working better on MAME, there's now a discord chat for this:

Echo in sound
I am using the 0219b emulator, but even in previous versions there is a lot of echo in the sound.
I believe that this is taking a good part in the performance of the emulation.
How do I remove the echo?
My current command line: .\mame64 indy_4610 -gio64_gfx xl24 -hard1 .\roms\irix62.chd -window -resolution 1280x1024 -cheat

RE: IRIX emulation is here!
For reduced audio quality try adding "-sr 11025" and see if it helps. I found that performance increased the most when I enabled frame skipping. Obviously this makes the GUI look choppy as hell but opening programs and software installations are a bit quicker.

RE: IRIX emulation is here!
Ethernet does not currently work on MAME. They are currently working on it, but there's no network capabilities. You should be asking in the MAME discord since this isn't exactly MAME support itself for questions like that.

RE: IRIX emulation is here!
Thanks a lot.
I got IRIX 6.5.28 ISO image. Is this useful for you?

I'm a beginer in mame and IRIX.
I have read https://wiki.irixnet.org/emulation. But I still can't install it independently.
I will try my best to install IRIX 6.5.28.
