Just in case the MameWorld boards go down (they just did briefly), here is the download. Just rename to .zip and unzip recursing subfolders.
Well I think this has taken the longest yet...
Mainly a bugfix version here, with a few features added. I really hope this fixes everything I think it does, as there were quite a few small niggly bugs which annoyed a lot of people!
I ought to iterate that at this point Mamewah *still requires* an updated xml2info.exe for Mame versions 0.107+, so please grab Kricks version from
http://mame.3feetunder.com/xml2info/
if neccessary.
Also important to note that I have renamed the rom_folder_vs_listxml list_generation_method to 'rom_folder_vs_xml2info'. Partly this is intended as a subtle hint that xml2info is required, and partly this is just a slight change for the future so I can use rom_folder_vs_listxml for native xml parsing.
Finally, I have decided to zip up this version using PKZIP for Windows. As some of you know, various Unzipping software were causing strange errors with Mamewah...I am hoping this may remove that problem. If you experience any problems (particularly with menu options missing), please unzip the download in it's entirety (recursing subfolders) and run...it is already preconfigured for Mame v0.107, so should run fine (if your mame folder is not c:\mame, then games won't run, but Mamewah should still work correctly). For a simple Mame setup just edit the paths in \mamewah\config\mame\mame.ini.
As always please keep this thread clear of general chat, and please report and bugs specific to this version here.
Good luck!
MAMEWAH v1.62b11 (23/08/06)
Bugs Fixed:
Runtime Error 91 may occasionally occur in Movie_Stop (fixed?),
'emuname' folder attributes (eg archive) may prevent emulator being available (fixed),
selected platform menu 'highlight' would sometimes be incorrect (fixed),
'Current Setting' for Select Theme menu did not show (fixed),
Themes may not have been listed in alphanumerical order (fixed),
Menu may malfunction if open while screensaver activated (fixed),
Romnames displayed with 'slideshow' screensaver instead of game description (fixed),
'display_clone_info 1' in list-specific ini's would be ignored when adding games to a list (as opposed to generating a filtered list) (fixed),
Problems could occur if Mamewah run with no \config\emuname folders present (fixed),
Exit sound would be cropped if using post emulator applications (fixed at last!).
Improvements / Changes:
Renamed 'rom_folder_vs_listxml' list_generation_method to 'rom_folder_vs_xml2info',
Renamed 'verifysets_vs_listxml' list_generation_method to 'verifysets_vs_xml2info',
Added check for xml2info.exe for _xml2info list_generation_method's (note added to log when missing),
Added automatic creation of missing list-specific ini files between 0 and the highest found existing ini (this prevents problems apparent with missing ini files),
Added volume level display in Options Menu when 'volume' options are highlighted,
Added check for previous running instance of Mamewah to prevent problems when running two or more instances.
