What do you guys think of ArcadeFX?

[RoboG2]

Is it a good frontend?  Any known problems or bugs?  Does it support multiple emulators or just MAME?  Thanks in advance.

Just mame. 

It's good, but it's horribly outdated and the mame gamelist is hardcoded into the program and can't easily be changed.

Actually the only real problem with using it is that is when you browse the the games using the alphabet it browses by file name and sorts them by it, but when you go one at a time through them it goes by the actually title. It is a pain in the but and can cause you all kinds of headaches.

Thanks.

I thought Arcade FX was pretty cool at first, but it hasn't been updated in a while, it looks like it will NEVER be updated, and there's too many things that should/need to be changed.

Try MAMEWAH.

i seem to recall Ed posting recently about it and I thought he said he updated the database to a more current version of MAME...?

I want to try MAMEwah so bad nut it doesnt support a mouse for a trackball.  If it doesnt have mouse support, can you still use a mouse in the actual games?

Yes.  MAMEWah is just a front-end program that launches other emulators.  The emulators themselves are what dictate the controls that game uses.
