MAME Compiler 64 v2.0.197
griffindodd:
I'm sure these error questions must sound like a stuck record to you but I am also getting patchDiff erros complaining the sytem cannot find the file.
Trying to compile x64 version
extracted the 147 source so I have folders and the make file in the mingw\source\ dir, I have patches 0147u1,u2,u3,u4 and hi score in the patch folder. 64-bit checked, not trying to build a UI version.
First time doing this so I'm pretty lost on the subject

Tested successfully with Mame 0.148 (hiscore diff and non-UI)

Hi headkaze,
It looks like things have changed quite a bit. I downloaded the new version of MC64Setup.exe (1.3). I've used this for the several past revisions of MAME, but as you mentioned, MinGW is no longer bundled in with MC64Setup.exe. I downloaded mingw-mame-w64-20121207.exe from MAMEDev. This is where I get lost. It's a 156 meg file and when I extract it, it's HUGE and has a lot of new files that the old one didn't contain.
So do I create a MinGW folder on C:\ still and extract the entire contents of this new mingw....exe there? I guess I just need to understand how the file structure is supposed to look and what files need to go where. Your instructions above don't appear to correspond with the new files. Could you provide a new set of instructions to match? Like I said, I've used MC64Setup.exe for a long time, but the mingw.exe and where the source files are supposed to go have me confused. Trying to set this up for 148.
Thanks so much!
Jason

That's exactly right -- Extract the huge MinGW that you downloaded to C:\MinGW (I think the instructions specify this). You should end up with two directories there:
mingw64-w32
mingw64-w64
That's also where you'll put your "source" and "patch" directories.
In Mame Compiler, you specify "C:\MinGW" under MinGW folder, and you're all set.
Hope that helps.

Txjoker, yep that did it!
Thanks my friend.
