| two versions of MAME under MAMEWAH |

| Breaker:
Hello all, I did a few searches for this info. but didn't find anything... I'm currently running MAME 0.79 and MAMEWAH 1.52 on my (almost finsihed) CAB and I'm happy with this combination as it does everthing I need....except....I'd like to run MAME 1.05 for a couple of games that have enhancements since 0.79 (but only for these games). How do I go about configuring MAMEWAH to run a different version of MAME for these games? Thanks, Breaker. |

Just add a new emulator, with the same ini file as mame. So say mame.ini is for mame, just create a mame2.ini and that will be the new emulator with the new .105 executable. |

Thank Hiub1, I think I understabd your instructions...a coupel of quick follow-up questions: a) when you say create a new emulator, do you mean create a nwe emulator in MAMEWAH? b) if the answer to 'a' is yes then this may be a mute question but here goes; let's say I want to run the 105 version of Robotron which I curently have in my list of favourites in MAMEWAH. Can I use that same list but modify the ini Robotron uses to point to MAME 105 instead of 0.79? Thanks again, Breaker. |

The answer to your question is yes. Sorry if I wasn't being clear, finals this week and my mind is all over the place. The answer to the second question is no. That is one of Mamewah's limitations, that each list is only configured for a single emulator. I vaguely remember Minwah saying something about this being worked on, but I imagine it would take quite a bit of restructuring to do. Hope this helps. |

You have to use game-specific ini files, and (if you decide to upgrade) I would highly recommend that you use the latest beta version. |
