Title: mame 137 has been released, should I get it?
Post by: shateredsoul on March 11, 2010, 06:42:02 pm
Hi just went through all the trouble of compiling 136u3 w/ hi score date

Is it really worth upgrading?

From reading the update files, it seems that naomi games are still unplayable.. so I dunno

i gave up trying to keep up with every release. it wasnt worth it to me unless a game I want was fixed.

I use .84 and .127, depending on which computer I'm using. I'm happy with them.

I normally use WolfMAME 106 (since that's what TG requires), but I have various versions to play some games that have been added, or to watch INP's from MARP.

+1

I'm still at .119.  It works with the games that I like including SFIII series and Killer Instinct.  Anything else I like (like Blitz and Gauntlet Legends) I play on my Dreamcast emulator.

The main reason I refuse to switch is because (at least for me) it was a pain in the <smurf> to hack my mame.exe to skip the game info screens at the beginning.  If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Partial thread hijack on upgrading-:)

 I see a couple people listing the same versions as the one that they use. Are there any certain releases that are kind of standard ones (like .84 favored over .82 or .86) due to major updates or improvements ?
