Sensational.
Go for everything!

Thanks, that's working better :-). Now to see if i can track down my software issue..

MAME doesn’t play nice with PowerShell at all, like -listxml won't work right. We depend on being able to spew UTF-8 and not have anything interfere with the encoding. The issue here is that chdman was expecting argv to contain UTF-8. That isn’t a valid assumption on Windows. I fixed it.

Yeah, that was one of the things I noted. Tried to make sure the noise effects were as loud as possible without distortion, but there doesn't seem to be any more headroom for that as the circuit is currently set up. One of the reasons I'd like to check against real PCBs.

Me too not have luck with the last SVN


Hope somebody fix this

With some time on my hands, I've been trying to recreate some SEGA CD chds, and seem to have hit a snag. My steps, which have worked for most of them, are:

- get the sha (using sha1sum) of the "pre-files" (cue, bin, wav, etc)
- make sure they match what is in the segacd.xml (via the source comments for each game)
- run
- check the "Data SHA1:" of the created chd with to the sha1 value found in the xml (or run the chd through clrmamepro)

Unfortunately a few of the created chd files do not match the values in the xml. Going through the history of the segacd.xml file on git, I noticed that the chd files I am having issue with were all updated in commit 022430913cda3521a010046357061a2cc408b8f2 (10/16/2016: "Fix most of the faulty sha1."). I noticed that all the sha1 values I am getting with my created chd files match the previous sha1 values that were edited via this commit of the segacd.xml file.
I do not see any reference on how these new sha1 values were obtained, and I'm a beginner when it comes to chdman so I'm not sure if I am missing a command line switch or I have to insert certain metadata into the chd? Thanks for any input.

As an example:
I get: Dracula Unleashed (USA) (Disc 1).chd Data SHA1: a622e34eece3b778be5db57e286f660dfa6eb24f
Currently in xml: <disk name="dracula unleashed (usa) (disc 1)" sha1="307c0779dace5d95f3e7a0ccee18c00356ca2362"/>
What was edited by commit 0224309...: <disk name="dracula unleashed (usa) (disc 1)" sha1="a622e34eece3b778be5db57e286f660dfa6eb24f"/>

Ubuntu 18.04, self compiled .221 with TOOLS (though I was experiencing the same issue with .220)

Wow, the battlezone disassembly is really comprehensive! And all the others too. Awesome! That's exactly why I've been looking for. I'm just trying to absorb all the greatness...

The 6502bench SourceGen tool looks really interesting. That screenshot of crossrunner? looked really cool. I watched the SourceGen youtube videos (and I didn't think they were boring).


It'd be really slick if the mame debugger could display source code and sync with assembler listings like the c64 debugger in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZU6TQN5Gi5g (KickAssembler + C64 Debugger integration)

Or something like ICU64 where you could have alternate views of memory:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjcvR5McmSg

I was thinking of trying to open up an additional screen where I could draw things with lua, that could do things like visualize bitmap data in memory.

Honestly, I have no idea. I just downloaded it from the same link I posted before, so there shouldn't be any difference in dump quality.

So is it that the setting 1 is not the same as 2? As bgfx is enabled and gles/vulkan is also enabled. I see a high fps value (potential frame rate possible with 1) through enabling debug in bgfx settings.

1. video bgfx and related bgfx settings don't help as much as

2. video opengl (not supported in ARM) /opengles (not implemented for ARM)

Added the ability to record AVI/MNG movies (requires MAME 0.221), and miscellaneous bug fixes

www.bletchmame.org

I already use bankdev, but could maybe make more use of it.

Maybe things slowed down when I added bbc_internal_slot_device to cater for internal expansion boards that can take over any of the address space. This meant all ram/rom now jumps through a trampoline to see whether an installed internal expansion board should be paged into a region, not sure what I can do to improve this.

I'll see if Tafoid fancies trying to pinpoint the performance drops.

MAME 0.221

Our fourth release of the year, MAME 0.221, is now ready. There are lots of interesting changes this time. We’ll start with some of the additions. There’s another load of TV games from JAKKS Pacific, Senario, Tech2Go and others. We’ve added another Panorama Screen Game & Watch title: this one features the lovable comic strip canine Snoopy. On the arcade side, we’ve got Great Bishi Bashi Champ and Anime Champ (both from Konami), Goori Goori (Unico), the prototype Galun.Pa! (Capcom CPS), a censored German version of Gun.Smoke, a Japanese location test version of DoDonPachi Dai-Ou-Jou, and more bootlegs of Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, Final Fight, Galaxian, Pang! 3 and Warriors of Fate.

In computer emulation, we’re proud to present another working UNIX workstation: the MIPS R3000 version of Sony’s NEWS family. NEWS was never widespread outside Japan, so it’s very exciting to see this running. F.Ulivi has added support for the Swedish/Finnish and German versions of the HP 86B, and added two service ROMs to the software list. ICEknight contributed a cassette software list for the Timex NTSC variants of the Sinclair home computers. There are some nice emulation improvements for the Luxor ABC family of computers, with the ABC 802 now considered working.

Other additions include discrete audio emulation for Midway’s Gun Fight, voice output for Filetto, support for configurable Toshiba Pasopia PAC2 slot devices, more vgmplay features, and lots more Capcom CPS mappers implemented according to equations from dumped PALs. This release also cleans up and simplifies ROM loading. For the most part things should work as well as or better than they did before, but MAME will no longer find loose CHD files in top-level media directories. This is intentional – it’s unwieldy with the number of supported systems.

As usual, you can get the source and 64-bit Windows binary packages from the download page. This will be the last month where we use this format for the release notes – with the increase in monthly development activity, it’s becoming impractical to keep up.

I remember seeing the anchor tattoo more vividly, but I pulled out my Panorama Popeye and it's kinda hard to tell cause the batteries are pretty dead.

Might depend on the lighting.

Hi arbee, I get your position. However, ETA Prime recently posted a video on how to install Chrome OS on to any laptop. I have a spare laptop with a 5th gen Core i7 that I was considering trying this with. So the question is relevant to me, since the processor should be up to the task. Do you know if I'd be forced to find a .deb and install through that, or is it even possible to build MAME from source on Chrome OS? I'm very curious, cuz I'd like to give it a shot, but I wouldn't bother if I'm unlikely to succeed in installing MAME on it.

tl;Dr: Assuming the CPU is good enough, do you know if it's possible? Thank you.

I tried searching, but can't find the answer. I have the surface dial, but it doesn't work inside mame games. It works on the the selection screen when I turn it. Is there a way for it to work as a spinner?

Nice.
