command.dat finally updated... after nearly two years.

(1/2) > >>

Procyon:
I decided to blow the dust off of the command.dat and update it with all of the fabulous work that Fabricio da Silva Coroquer had been doing for an unofficial version. I merged all of his changes into the original version, since his removed all of the non-fighting games. Only the shorthand version has been updated, and will probably be the only version updated for the time being until I can convert it all back to long hand. Anyway, if you're still a fan of the command.dat, or aren't familiar with what it is or how to use it, head over to http://home.comcast.net/~plotor/command.html

Sweet job man.  :applaud:

Many newer mamers may not even know about command.dat. I think that any fighter fan should care about it and be appreciative of all the hard work.

Like me !  This is awesome.   Now I just have to figure out how to get it to work!  Well done Procyon.  This is one of those things you find out after leaving MAME aside for a few years, and it's all grown up while you've been away.

His site mentions those 2 particular Mame builds you can use for this, but you can also use Howard_Casto's Johnny5 app. This is the best way IMO.

Come to think of it, if you don't know about command.dat, you may also not know about J5. It is a sweet little app to show you what buttons do what for each particular game. Roll that together with command.dat and you are set.  :notworthy:

Oh sweet! Can't wait to test them out.
