Do you need a frontend with MAME32
<< < (4/6) > >>

Well, I do all my testing on a PIII 733, which is probably responsible for that large duration of time. I plan on donating so I can rid of the damn screen for good, though. The program, in my opinion, is well worth the donation cost.

okay after a reboot gameEX is working and I think I like it the best b/c of all the options I have.  Atomic is cool but limited compared to gameEX.  I just need to read up on gameEX to figure out how to do my own layouts and change certain options, it did not come with a readme file.  Thanks for all the help

GameEX is more a Media center  , AtomicFE is a only a Front End.   If you compare FrontEnd feature i don't think Atomic is limited in comparaison of GameEX , i think it would be the opposite. In Term of Media Center , yes, it is clear GameEX is better.  The 2 products don't have the same approach. If you take time to study in depth Atomic you will see that the front end as not really limits..    Atomic is currently limited by his configurations tools that don't allow to exploit the all the power of the FE easily.  But it will change very soon...



JonnyBoy:
I agree with Youki, AtomFE is a fine frontend. It does what's needed to run games. GameEx has all those little media features alongside the front end. They are two different animals.

That's just a configuration issue...MAME32 is the same as MAME with a FE.  My guess is with MAME you just used the defaults...for example hardware stretching is switched on and triple buffering off by default...whereas the opposite are better for image quality.
