You have to map each game seperately AND load them "by hand" if you're not using a frontend?

Sounds like a bit of a beating.  :(

Can you say "wrapper"?

Texasmame:
Well, sure I can, but what's it refer to?   ::)

fatfingers:

Instead of running just mame <romname>, you could write a mamewrapper.bat (or other named batch file) that would first apply the appropriate map file and then run the rom as specified on the command line.  So, the command line would be:

mamewrapper pacman

The wrapper would apply the map you want for pacman (a 4-way map, I would presume) and then run mame pacman.

Now it is no longer such a manual process.

Texasmame:
Ah, okay. 

Actually want to know if you could do this with MAME32.  I'm not running a frontend for the Girlcab - it just boots to windows98 then MAME32 runs automatically. 

Can you run a wrapper from within MAME32 - operate it all just the same by just clicking on the game you want and 32 will run the wrapper for you for each specified game?
