AdvanceMAME v0.79.0

posted in Emulator Release by mfc on Feb 2nd, 2004

Andrea Mazzoleni wrote in to let us know about an update to AdvanceMAME, a MAME variant that has increased compatibility with TV displays, arcade and fixed-frequency monitors. Here is what's new:
  • Added LCD support at the Linux version using the lcdproc library. You can now display arbitrary messages on the LCD using the "lcd" command on the scripts.
  • Added the `device_svgawin_skipboard' and `device_svgaline_skipboard' options to control which video board to use in Windows and DOS in case you have more than one video board on the system.
  • To compile in DOS/Window now you must use the `Makefile.usr' file.
  • Fixed a problem when converting old options name to the new values. The conversion was failing if more than one conversion was required.
  • Splitted the big source file blit.c in small parts. This should reduce the memory requirement when compiling.
You can download this in our MAME section for Windows and *nix!
