This is a port of MAME 0.148 for MorphOS. Requirements ------------ - Morphos 1.4.5+ - MUI 4 (if starting in GUI mode). - guigfx.mcc/library (supplied in archive). Features -------- - Built-in MUI GUI with screenshots and history.dat/mameinfo.dat support. - Optimized triple-buffered display routines. - Overlay support, offering free scaling and filtering. To avoid struggling with exotic screenmodes, MAME clones the Ambient desktop resolution when switching to fullscreen/overlay mode (unless specified otherwise). - Joypad / Mouse support - SDL-free. History ------- 01.03.2013 - Updated to MAME 0.148. A lot has changed since 2007, many more systems/games are supported. As usual, MAME got slower, but in particular, SH2/SH4-based games are now MUCH slower due to missing PPC dynarec support. The MorphOS version uses the old SH2/SH4 interpreter instead, but it's still much slower than 0.120, for some reason. Apart from that, this version is roughly 10-15% slower in general, which is a bit compensated by further optimizations in the MorphOS port. - MUI4 lists are now used instead of NList. Good riddance. - Fixed minor issues in the GUI. - Improved MAME blitting engine speed. - Fixed a crash when toggling to fullscreen mode if screen fails to open. 28.11.2007: - Updated to MAME 0.120. Amongst remarkable generi improvements since 0.113: + MAME now comes with its own rom browser (tab menu->select new game or program started without any rom). + CPS3 system is now emulated (Street Fighter III 3rd Strike, ...)... but some frameskip needed to be playable on G4 though. + Model 1 system works better too (Virtua racing or Daytona USA)... but a 2GHz G4 is needed for them i fear. :) ... and many more, refer to whatsnew.txt or MAME website for the full list. - As some config items have been changed quite a lot since 0.113, it's highly recommended to delete all ini/* and cfg/* files to avoid any trouble, and rebind your keys/joysticks properly. - Reworked the input system to match new MAME requirements. Mouse is also better supported now. - Fixed a bug in non overlay fullscreen mode: bitmap allocation size was wrong in unscaled mode. - Improved GUI: + Multiple screenshots navigation support (if they were saved in snaps//). + Cyclechain and control keys were added. + Faster abortion for asynchron loading of history.dat and mameinfo.dat files. - Added optimizations to neogeo video driver (30% speedup) & original MAME blitting engine (400% speedup :)) to compensate the loss of speed of MAME since 0.107 or so. - Enabled wavwrite support, and fixed some endianess issues with it (Thanks to elena for reporting that missing option). 26.03.2007: - Updated to MAME 0.113. - Screen aspect support - Scaling with aspect support in non overlay mode. - Sound lag issues are gone. - Asynchron GUI If you have any remark or suggestion, please contact me at fabien.coeurjoly@wanadoo.fr .
