Jumped into the deep end....
« on: December 30, 2005, 05:50:32 pm »
hi all, i decieded to build a MAME cabinet, ive successfully hacked a mouse (with much help from this forum and it's great members)
i cant seem to find a mame32 v0.53 download, and i cant get the mame v0.53 that i DLd from mame.net to work

ive got a P2 400MHz 64Mb running win98

im not looking to play time crisis or soul calibur3, i just want to play some of the classics.

am i way off base to want to have mamewah as a frontend and mame32 v0.53?

Mame32 has its own front end built in.  You do not need a front end for it.

Just use command line MAME. Don't use MAME32 with another frontend.
