What is your complete software setup?
« on: April 29, 2008, 12:46:30 am »
So, assuming you have a nice disc full of roms; where do you go from there?  I know there are different opinions, but would like to gather what people like from the frontend throughout every emulator used.

You might want to start with the BYOAC Wiki   ;)

Many users have compiled some good data on there already

Yeah, I've checked those out...I was curious what individual preferences were out there, though.  Appreciate the link, nonetheless.  :cheers:

In that case I recommend the Project Announcement section

 http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/board,10.0.html

What you 'appear to ask seems extremely vast and varied .. Possibly you could narrow down/ split up the question?

MaLa FE

Mame .79   (  yes .79   ;D  )

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.
