Updating Mame & Frontends?
eyal8r:
Hey guys-
I've been away from my machine for about a year. I'm running Mame32 0.82 Analog+, and I would like to update it. Is there a newer version available, and, where do I get it from?
Also- I would like a better front end for it- something that is nice looking, and I can easily select/deselect which games I want to show up in the front end. Can you guys suggest one, and where I would get it from? It's just hard to remember everything since being out and away for soo long.
Thanks!

Frontend i use is mamewah

I second the suggestion of MameWAH. It may be a tiny bit tricky to setup originally, but well worth the time. Also, Minwah is super helpful with any troublems.

Hmmm- ok-
1) will Mamewah work on Analog+?
2) if I upgrade my Analog+, do I need to do anything with upgrading 'mame' from that other link you posted? Or, do I only need to upgrade Analog+?
3) is there a place that posts any updates to games, or, any new games that came out? Or, will upgrading my Analog+ version to the latest one take care of that, or, do I need to find the updated games elsewhere?
THANKS!

1) I haven't had any experience with Analog+, but provideing that Analog+ doesn't have its own frontend Mamewah will work
2) You only need to upgrade Analog+ if your going to upgrade, i added the link to mame because it is more up to date than Analog+ (being that Analog+ is a made from mame it will be)
3) Whatsnew.txt should tell you what has been added since the previous version
