General question regarding later versions of Mame

(1/2) > >>

JayB:
At the moment I have v113 running on a Pentium 4 3ghz, fine. I wanted to get rid of the nag screen (left/right) and found a version 139 which had removed all the loading and nag but, half the games are missing files. I presume I can't get the no nag with 113?

Is the latest version of Mame 146 noticeable in terms of cpu useage compared to what I have? Mainly classics and some 90's games so don't want to upgrade the machine really. Just don't want to go down one road and find it's created new problems  :dizzy:

 

DrChek:
Latest version will be more demanding.

You can get no-nag for 113, you just might need to compile it yourself. There is a sticky thread in the Software forum that tells you how.

I personally run 106 on all my classic cabs since MAME took its biggest performance hit startling with the next version.

JayB:
Thanks for the reply DrChek.

Really? That would be great if so as I have sorted out all my games the last few weeks and this problem with 139 has really screwed me. I didn't realise the no nag had been implemented in earlier versions so many thanks for this  :applaud:

I'll take a look at the sticky and fingers crossed  :cheers:

Yes, and I've mainly stuck back there for similar reasons.....but now, too many games I play are getting good not to be seriously interested in using current MAME.

Which games in particular do you see having the biggest improvements in the latest versions? I haven't kept up with the updates.
