Mamewah walkthrough/summary
Wadeduck:
Most excellent work. I might finally be able to get this program to work correctly. Thank's to all who have contributed to this Wiki.
liquid8:
I'ved added a ton of questions to the FAQ, as well as added info about the ctrlr files (key config), and information about custom lists. Peruse it if you have Mamewah questions... still updating. I will be checking out the beta shortly, and posting some information on that.
Also, I checked out the Mamewah config program, and it is VERY nicely done. The only thing that wasn't quite working correctly is the layouts setup (couldn't download or install). I may decide to add instructions on using it as well. If you are having trouble setting up Mamewah, I highly recommend checking it out. It's in the Useful Programs section of the Mamewah Wiki.

The new beta version has a different setup for the inis (where they reside, not the contents of them.) Much of that specific info will eventually need to be changed.
Very nice looking so far.
One suggestion. By default, mamewah's mame.ini file has the "rom_folder vs list_xml" option selected by default. If you're using advancemame (like I did originally) you won't be able to use this method until you download the additional required files. I know for certain that the listxml.exe file was NOT included in the advmame download. I'm not certain what else is needed for that list generation method to work. It gave me large headaches for many hours, till I gave up on advmame and downloaded regular cmdline mame. (THEN I had figured out what I just stated above about the missing files.) No big deal. Got cmdline mame to work just fine on my TV!
Are there other versions of mame that don't automatically include the necessary files to use the default listgen method?
I'd contribute myself, but I just don't know for certain what is required and what isn't.
Space Fractal:
as you can se on the talk pages, the main version should been the officiel version, not the beta, because the betas is hidden on the mamewah pages, so most people would download the officiel version anyway (includning myself)
By nown it should been a beta/wip page, that cover all changes like this (Mamewah_Beta). When it finally released, wiki pages can been updated to suit it needs.
