Do you need a frontend with MAME32

<< < (2/6) > >>

I am experimenting with some frontends now, mamewah is cool but if I accidently hit the start button on my keyboard the screen goes out and I have to reboot, this probably wont be an issue once my CP is in place,  I couldnt get atomicFE to work I dont know how to config it?

I run mame32 with gameex for the frontend & it works perfect

rockmes:
l also run mame32 with mamewah and never had issues. l use mame32 , cos l noticed better picture quality and smoothness of the games like sfa3. Try it yourselves and see the difference .

No doubt you are not running it on an old PC

Mame 32 won't make any diffrence to graphics as its the same code with FE built in. You probably just didn't have all the settings the same in mame.ini.


--- Quote ---I am new to this and have never run mame from command line, is it complicated?  do I have to type in a command line each time I want to play a different game?

No it is not hard.  A command line is (for eg   mame.exe invaders). This would launch invaders.  A FE sends the command line to mame for you. When you are ready there is plenty of docs out there on setting a FE up

Atomic is easy to configure. Just run AtomicManager.exe in the directory where you installed Atomic (most likely c:\AtomicFE_v015) and click on the Folders tab. Point everything in there to where your stuff is located and Save. Here are the main files:

- Atomic.exe: program that will launch AtomicFE once it
