Super simple front end available?

southpaw13:

is there a really simple front end that can just select .bat files?  No snaps, no vids, just a simple 1 through 10 that uses a joystick and button press to select with an escape press going back to the menu.

Thanks,
SP

Mala is very simple to set up and will do this

Very famiar with mala.  No support so I want to try something else.  I Mamed out an offroad and only need to select a few games.  I want to be able to use bat files so I can use different versions of Mame for different games.

Maximus is the simplest, but has even less support than Mala.

What issues are you having with Mala that you can't find support for?

I'm doing what you want to do in Mala.
I use SGTs workaround http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,68419.0.html
But if you're only going to have a few games, it could be simplified.
Your mame.bat would look something like:


--- Code: ---if "%1" == "offroad" goto offroad
if "%1" == "ssprint" goto ssprint

:offroad
cd \Emulators\mame126
mame.exe %1
exit

:offroad
cd \Emulators\mame78
mame.exe %1
exit
--- End code ---
