which front ends work with mame32?
<< < (3/3)
Howard_Casto:
Unless I'm wrong, gameEx started as a media center clone and evolved into a general front-end.  I agree, although it isn't as bad as mame32, it is quite "windowsie" it's just xp windows, not windows 9x.  ;)

well, like i say atomicfe is working fine with mame32 (just some small configuring issues that is all about me not being able to read the instructions properly!). if i have to i can write the exclude list manually (first thing i did was exclude the mysterious 'lovely cards' which i dont have a rom for but was in the menu...)and live with the games being called, for instance- missile command (set 1). im even happy with the default video skin!

Ultrastyle stopped working at version 100 & if you check the website, he states it does not work after version 100, he seem to have lost interest in working on the frontend
thanks

There's a workaround - this is from the Ultrastyle forum, which is still active. I am in the process of doing a Mame setup, and will be using Ultrastyle. I don't have all the hardware yet...

Ok, first thing is that your 100% sure that MAME itself know the path to your roms.
If so, open a DOS box in your MAME directory and type this line:
MAME.EXE -VERIFYROMS > SETS.TXT

This should run for a little while and then a sets.txt file should be in your MAME directory. Copy this file into your ultrastyle/cfg directory and run the ultrastyle setup normally, skipping over the sets.txt step.
