posted in Site News by grammarian on Jun 13th, 2003

MAME32, the version of MAME that includes the nice GUI, has been updated to version 0.70.1. Among the updates are:
  • Added art tab with only history.dat. If this tab is enabled and history.dat is present history text will no longer appear beneath the screenshot. [Tor Arne Vestb? / Chris Kirmse]
  • Added option to hide the mouse cursor on launch in full screen on Options ? Interface Options. [Tor Arne Vestb?]
  • Addressed some long standing bugs dealing with icon decimation and windows title bar size, and details/grouped view not holding the column size on return from large icon view post-session restart. [Ren? Single]
  • Added option to expand Mame32 to full screen kiosk mode without any windows controls [F11]. [Tor Arne Vestb? / Chris Kirmse]
  • Created new Berzerk homage about.bmp. [John IV]
  • Reworked drop down for D3D prescale effect, now allowing various levels of sharpness to be used. [Chris Kirmse]
  • Updated win32ui.c to pull certain information more appropriately out of layout.c. [Nathan Woods/MESS32]
  • Removed obsoleted version mismatch toggle. [Chris Kirmse]
  • Added a built in orientation folder view for displaying vertical and horizontal games. [Ren? Single]
  • Added support for the new cleanstretch options. [Chris Kirmse]
  • Added ability to map joystick actions in mame32ui.ini to control GUI navigation instead of being hard coded:
  • Removed desaturate slider from D3D tab. [Chris Kirmse]
  • Fixed cleanstretch and prescale settings not holding. [Chris Kirmse]
  • Implemented BIOS selection on per game basis [only Neo Geo games currently] and allowed temporary global settings for BIOS via number. [Chris Kirmse]
As usual for MAME-based emulators, there is a large list of changes. Anyways, you can download the torrent for the binary program, or you can download the source distribution from our MAME Section. Thanks to superunknown for the news!
