BuddaMAME v0.93 released

[Buddabing]

Hello,

My build of MAME version 0.93, which incorporates:

- MAME Movie Maker
- CPMaker
- code to display controls artwork when paused
- skip_warnings patch

is available here. I've included a non-optimized Windows binary. If you want to compile your own, extract the included source code and makefile over a fresh copy of the v0.93 source code.

If you have previously compiled v0.93 and you want to compile in my code, go ahead and extract my source over the existing source. Then cd to the obj\mame (or whatever target) directory and del *.o, followed by del windows\*.o. This will delete the core files but not the drivers. Then remake MAME. That'll save you some time.

The CPMaker functionality is compiled into the binary. The source, however, is separate. Keep this in mind if you want to compile your own.

Please post any compile issues to this thread.

Regards,
Buddabing

EDIT: I've removed the link temporarily until MAMEdev fix the -wavwrite function.

... This release is probably buggy, I may not make a BuddaMAME build until a couple of updates have been done.

 

If you make new changes to BuddaMame (mostly the MMM part) I will have to upgrade MAME or do you keep updating the packages for the "older" MAME (like 0.92). At this point that would be the only incentive to upgrade to 0.93 for me.

I think .92 is a release people will be using for a long time. I'll do what I can to support it.

The MMM project is pretty much complete now.

The 0.93 to 0.93u1 patch will work, but it must be applied after my source is extracted.

I used the Windows binary provided and run Mame via Mamewah - and I still got the 'Press any key' and 'Type OK' screens. Can buddaMame disable these? I thought that was what you meant by 'skip_warnings' patch.

I know this is such a common question, but it is very hard to search and find a working answer to this. I've tried and only come up with threads on it that dont have a working solution for any noob to follow.

Sorry to hijack the thread a little.. please help me.

I have seen that thread solution before but havent been able to get it working.

The suggestion was to add four lines to the mame.ini file - this is a Mamewah file right? I couldnt find this file in my /mame folder so I'm assuming it is.

Do the lines have to go under any specific place in that file (ie under a specific comment banner) or can I just chuck them anywhere? Does it matter if I have one 'space' character between the value and the '1' or can I have multiple (so they all match up) and it doesnt matter?

I've added the lines and tried a few variations but the messages always appear (the 'type ok' and 'press any key' msgs) upon loading up a rom (with mame and mamewah).

Any further insights into getting this working? I would have thought that it was a mame setting, not mamewah, however as stated, the only mame.ini I could find was in /mamewah/ini

This isn't a mamewah file. It's a mame file.

This is from the docs.
-createconfig / -cc

        Creates the default MAME.INI file. All the following configuration
        options can be permanently changed by editing this configuration file.

Ahh, so when I run Mame via Mamewah - I can put add that option to the mame target in the mamewah config?
ie
Mame Dir              c:\mame\mame.exe -cc

and that will create the .ini I need to add the options?

Sorry I'm such a nub, I promise to use this knowledge for good not evil

[mahuti]

I would just open up a dos window and run c:\mame\mame.exe -cc once. That's all you want to do is run it once. Then edit the default values in this file.
