New version out! 

Now supports -listinfo and the old -listxml formats! 
Created a -createfakes option which will create a bunch of 0 length fake rom files to all AtomicFE to work.

So I now have multiple emulators all acting like a single MAME version, all with specific logic to only have showing the games I'm interested, and I was able to get the configuration working with about 10 different frontends without any trouble at all (in most cases, just with the default configuration).  GREAT for testing frontends, changing around the look and feel... and for, best of all, adding features and rules to frontends!

If anyone has either an emulator or a frontend which you would like me to get working let me know!

Does it work with GameEx?

Howard_Casto:
Lilwolf, I've been following this one for a while, but it has me confused a little.  What exactly does it do? 

From what I understand it's making a big gamelist in the mame format and tricking the fe into thinking all the games are mame and I'm assuming there is an exe you put in place of mame that acts like a wrapper and launches the appropriate exe? 

If that's the case then how are you going about the various conflict problems?

Example: 

Badlands in daphne... the shooting game, has a rom name of badlands

Badlands in mame... the post apocalyptic racer, still has a rom name of badlands but it's a totally diferent game with different artwork. 

The same goes with cobra command and a dozen or so titles I can vaguely remember having conflicts with. 

Also of course there's the cps2/m2/whatever emulators that only emulate games that are already in mame.  Of course I'm guessing they are the reason you made this, but does the app use a hierarchy to determine which one to use or what?

Dariusz:
Lilwolf,

I using Atomic FE as my App+ w+i+ll mame only configured. I'm I correct to assume that you app in my situation, will allow me to use Atomic so that it has ONE ' games list' or is it 'favorite game list' from a list of emulators (such as Daphane, Zinc, Model2 etc), and run that game from the list?

If so, Do you have a config setup or can help me generate a config setup for use with Atomic FE so that I have a game list generated from the following emus that I can play with?:

Mame,
Model2
Zinc
Daphane

Also how is the game list updated (ie. new release of mame) once the original game list is created for mulitmame?

Thanks,

Dariusz

Lilwolf:
I'll test it out tonight.
