Post by: abispac on December 10, 2021, 05:10:06 pm

Im a bit confused, can someone kindly enough point me how to compile groovymame with hbmame games, or the otherway around.
I though that maybe theres a diff to patch mame, so i can use that diff to patch hbmame, its that how is done?
Im comfortable compiling mame, i just need the correct steps to make this happen, Thanks alot.

Hi, it's "easy". You need to patch hbmame with @Calamity switchres diff file.

Is this true? #1 cant seem to find groovymame diff and #2 looks like switchres is a separate project. Can anyone confirm it please, thats this is how groovyvmame can be compiled with hbmame.
Could i simply copy paste the drivers parts or something like that?

If you cant seem find patch, always you can do it.

@Calamity publish every src versions of Groovymame at https://github.com/antonioginer/GroovyMAME/releases (https://github.com/antonioginer/GroovyMAME/releases). Make a diff file with base mame isn't so difficult i think.

Here is version 227:

That's the one I'm using and it's the latest compile I could find on b4ndit0's repository:

His builds work great. If you get the newest one compiled, I'm happy to test it :)

So what i did, was download latest groovymame, to perhaps take advantage of the latest switchres, placed the hbgroovymame exe there, fire it up and it seems  to work. Thanks.
