I have a question and Minwah you might know the answer. I downloaded the new Mame update the .107 one. I don't know if I did it right. I had the .106 version before. So I extracted all files to the mame directory, and then I went into MAMEwah and tried to generate a list for my games, and it came back with an error?? Do I need to do a fresh install of both of these programs to get it to work? Why does it give me the error? I also backedf up my original mame folder with .106. |

This was already answered above... --- Quote from: krick on July 24, 2006, 11:30:13 pm --- --- Quote from: Minwah on July 24, 2006, 07:15:35 pm --- my prog should work to some extent with Krick's new 'xml2info', by creating a dat file. However I think I read about some change with the way vertical resolutions are now represented in Mame...I am not totally sure of the details but this may mess up the vertical games side of things. --- End quote --- In the pre-107 XML output, the width and height were reversed on vertical games. This is no longer the case. In the 107 MAME XML output, the resolution specified for each game is the unrotated resolution. However, in my xml2info, I swap them back for vertical games to match the way the info format has always been. http://mame.3feetunder.com/xml2info/ If you want to use the XSL version of xml2info, you might be interested to know that in addition to the way mentioned in the readme, you can also run it this way.... mame.exe -listxml | xsltproc xml2info.xsl − > listinfo.txt (the minus sign indicates that the input comes from the output of the previous command) I'll be adding this to the readme shortly. --- End quote --- |

I thought Min was talking about some kind of res tool? I have no idea what that is, but I am a noob when it comes to MAME. So would it be better to just stick with the .106, and then let Minwah update his MAMEwah program to work with the never versions of MAME? |

In a word, yes. That's what I'll be doing. I just upgraded from .88 to .106 so I could easily setup two spinners and it seems to be the best recent build before the changes came in. I plan to wait a few versions until it all settles down before I upgrade mame again. Only problem is I now have an enormous number of missing games...doh |

Also, note that you must also either use Mamewah v1.62b10, or use v1.61 with this wrapper: http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Number=81224&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1&vc=1 |
