Book suggestion for Saint, our fearless leader! :)

(1/4) > >>

RTSDaddy2:
This might should be in "Everything Else," please move if so - but I have a suggestion.  Instead of doing version 2 of "Project Arcade", perhaps you could write a book on all these front ends, describing to those of us who have far less than a Ph.D. in programming how to set up MAMEWAH,  AtomicFE, etc.   

No offense to our front end folk - I've had conversations with Min about Mamewah, and he's a great guy...but I've just never seen anything...all of them...be so hard to configure!

TOK:
They are all very open ended, which is both a blessing and a curse. They're all very flexible, but that comes with a learning curve. The problem I see with a book is that the FE's are updated way too fast for the print world. By the time the book was written and put in print, it'd be 5 revisions behind, at best.

Swindus and Yuoki (sorry if thats spelled wrong) are very prolific updaters. I think any tutuorial on these programs needs to be web based for quick updating and access.

What Tok said :)

Good fodder for the Wiki!

A setup guide for mamewah would be awesome, its a great frontend, but by far the hardest to setup i have done

MYX:
The MAMEWah Wiki has gotten to be pretty informative. Check it out. Now, what would also be VERY usefull in the WIKI is an Idiot's guide to the MAMEWah Res tool. The dang thing makes me want to bash my head through broken glass. (Actually the read me vs. reality makes me want to do the glass thing) the tool is actually great.
