Fastmame mirror or archive?
« on: July 01, 2009, 04:05:54 am »
i've been away from mame for a long time, recently picking it back up i ran across a project called fastmame.

i really like it as it seems to deliver on it's promise of 10-20% speed increase.

the problem is the projects long been dead.

it seems the last version was 0.98.. or at least this is the last version i could find.
i could find little documenting the demise of the project, it's website no long provides any information about it, or links to download..

after scouring google.. i've come up with a grand total of 4 versions..

0.56 (although i could not find any documentation of the projects history, i think this was the first fast mame release)
0.84
0.92 (which does'nt seem to work, and complains about some xmlparser file)
0.98 (which seems to write cfg files but wont load them even when specificly told do so with cmdline switch, hence no way to save button or dipswitches)

anyway i was wondering if anyone had links or new of a archive for this project.. im interested both in it's history/timeline, as well as looking for as many versions of it as i can get my hands on..

specifically (.37b16 if it exist, i think .56 was first release) .63, .64, .76, .88, and i'd like to get all versions from .90-> project death (think 0.98 which i have but as said dont work correctly)


can anyone point me in the right direction? i've searched google till my eye's was red.. i can't seem to find them.
Anyone got change for a dollar?
PLEASE HELP NEED Fastmame .70 and .9* releases
