Title: MAME UI Generic Custom Bezel. Need your help!
Post by: Eskapade on January 27, 2015, 01:30:44 pm
Hey guys!

I am looking to have a generic Bezel display in all the games I don't have artwork for in MAMEUI (0.155)... I have read that Hyperlaunch takes care of this now although I have my Hyperspin set up how I want it and don't want to overcomplicate things.


* Would anyone be able to compile me a version of MAMEUI with NoNag/HiScores & the ability to have generic bezels? Or provide me with some instructions of how to edit my existing version of MAMEUI to allow for custom bezels? This would be greatly appreciated, I've been at this researching for days.  :embarassed:

The term you're looking for is .LAY (layout) files.

Check out Mr. Do's site and several threads here for more details IIRC.

Thanks Scott, I'm aware of the term after previous research I've done here/ Mr. Do's website although I have been unsuccessful in my various attempts of compiling MAME (if I even need to compile at all, I can't find this information) and finding all the necessary steps needed to implement a master custom bezel. I was hoping someone could guide me through the process.

Would anyone be able to compile me a version of MAME following this http://mrdo.mameworld.info/mame_artwork_generic.php (http://mrdo.mameworld.info/mame_artwork_generic.php)

Also adding NoNag/HighScore.

I would be forever grateful

(Effective with MAME 0.140, this method doesn't work. Still trying to figure out how to fix it).

I figured that meant It was working for versions other than 1.40

This seems to be an endless battle for me.  :banghead:
