and MikeQ, is there any reason that I shouldn't just use your version of MAME32 with MAMEWAH? how old is your version relative to mame0103b, etc?

Mine can be built as MAME or MAME32 and is version .102.  I haven't released anything yet but if/when I do, it will be the latest version and I'll update to each version of mame when they are released.

If you are like me and have less than 100 roms that you are interested in playing, it won't take you too long to configure the basics. There is also a default setting you can configure.

Suhweet. Well, I can definitely say that I'd be willing to throw several coins in your coffer if you were to ever share this with the rest of us. Let me know once you have something ready and just tell me your paypal addy - I won't even consider it a purchase, so I won't pester you too much for support either. ;) ..... probably.....

Are you just indicating buttons or controls?

If buttons there are many games that mame will report too many buttons for because all the games in the driver use a single macro since the button locations are the same as all the games used the same hardware.

Also there are other reasons.  Just curious, try bigevglf.  There is only 1 button, club select.  BUT it has two defined because in cocktail mode the second button is player 2's club select.

All Neo-Geo games HAVE 4 buttons. Metal Slug only USES 3. I'd be stunned if Mame could actually determine that based on my past experiences.

Additionally, a lot of games were made on generic hardware with support for 2, 3, of 4 or more buttons when the game didn't necessarily use that many. Plus, MAME may support a joystick hack for a game that used just buttons for the directions. If you had LEDs to light your joystick, it would be technically incorrect for the joystick to light on a game like Phoenix, even though Mmame supports use of the joystick. I guess it all depends on what you consider "wrong."
