AdvanceMAME v0.53.0
posted in Emulator Release by outsider on Aug 27th, 2001
Andrea Mazzoleni informed us that he released a new version of AdvanceMAME, an unofficial MAME DOS version with an advanced video support for helping the use with TVs, Arcade Monitors, and also for PC Monitors.
The NEW features are:
The site is now hosted on SourceForge.
Kept the support for 8 bit modes. You can still use 8 bit modes for games with less than 256 colors without problems. You can also use 8 bit modes for all the other games but you lose in color precision.
The modeline format is changed. Now it's XFree compatible.
Added a new set of video drivers called `svgaline' from the Linux SVGALIB library.
Added support for 32 bit depth.
The safeexit option now uses the safequit.dat file to check if the exit is safe or not. If the game is in demo mode and no coin is inserted the "Continue/Exit" menu is not shown. [Filipe de V. Estima (Bugfinder), Ian Patterson]
