Title: best front end for MAME?
Post by: bpjacobsen on February 13, 2018, 11:45:35 pm

I currently have MAME setup in pinballx and have good videos for the games already but I am wondering if I would be better off with a separate front end for MAME? Also, right now, when I open pbx, the wheel display continuously scrolls through all the games and won't stop. Does anyone happen to know why this would be happening? It works fine when I have the pinball tables turned on and I can cycle through the tables using the right and left flipper button. but as soon as I enable MAME then open PBX, the menu just automatically keeps moving really fast. Where might it be pulling the mappings for buttons? Is it coming from the main config in mame somewhere?

Best front end... the one that you set up successfully, looks good to you, and works on your system.

I'm currently an Attract Mode fan, but there are many options, all of which work.
