Title: Mame32 confused
Post by: malpine on March 13, 2004, 06:21:57 pm

...not quite getting this.
I'm using Mame32 for my emulator. Do I also need a front end, or is it the same thing. If I need one, what do I have to choose from.
The Mame32 environment is a little too "Windows" looking for me compared to some of the front ends I've seen.

Please help, I'm dying to get this thing goin...

Wait, I just noticed looking through the forums where someone asked "You're using Mame32 in a cab?"
Should I be using some other emulator in my cabinet?
Is there one more conducive?
Why does it make a difference?
.....aaarrrgh...

...someone please help

thanks
