OP qmc2 Very Senior Member Q Joined: May 2008 Posts: 4,930 Likes: 24 Germany	A few days after we released a version for Linux only I can say that QMC2 builds on Windows again!! In the end it's an easy task ... I only tried the official MAME tools and an additional webview package: Code pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-webview 5.15.3-1 After that, I could run Code make -j6 QMAKE=qmake to build release/qmc2-mame.exe. So there's hope for Windows builds for the next version! Last edited by qmc2; 04/06/22 06:25 PM. A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work unless it's open. [Frank Zappa]

I love how easy it is to manipulate the size of window panes and can choose exactly what font to use and how big it's presented to me. The control over presentation is amazing with QMC2 with so many ways to customize different fields. Everything seems to be working right now with the exception of the Shideravan system and software templates. I'm still exploring and trying to figure that out. [EDIT] The end result is pretty good on Windows 10. Most everything is working in how I remember it except for some minor details with the templates. Software lists are working which are amazing. Thank you so much, QMC2 https://imgur.com/NfzJkiI Last edited by B2K24; 04/12/22 09:33 AM. Reason: Added info

It were the imageformat plugins that were missing . Fixed now! https://qmc2.batcom-it.net/download/win32/qmc2-win32-x64-0.243-test3.exe Last edited by qmc2; 04/23/22 07:14 AM.

Well, try installing the "mingw-w64-x86_64-qtwebkit" package. Last edited by qmc2; 05/02/22 04:25 PM. A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work unless it's open. [Frank Zappa]

Whats it's differents between buildtoos.bat and win32env.bat i compare environments from both files - it's same. Someone may explain me. Thank you. Last edited by oddi; 05/02/22 06:49 PM.

Problem it's me, because i used my batch file with environments. Used win32env.bat
Mame compile with my batch without problems , but with QMC2 .....no luck:)

If used Rene's tutorial - QMC2 wiki , all it's fine.
I wanna compile qmc2 with my environment ..but have this erros.:

Code

It should be in "C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\uic.exe" according to your log. Anyway, Qt WebKit is now (when you compile from source) no longer supported! It's Qt WebEngine instead, so we finally got rid of this old (but good) beast... it works, but there's still a lot to do, so I won't release a new version this time.

Hello Rene, please your help for compile QMC2 under win10/11.
This is mystery for me

I used qmc2 wiki and step by step tutorial compile with "buildtools.bat" environment , btw - test too and with "win32env.bat" ......
same errors"
Tested witth the last mamedev tools ( with or without updates ) plus QT5 packages - no luck again.

Code

$ make -j3 LIBARCHIVE=1
Configuring build of QMC2 0.244
qmake -makefile -o Makefile.qmake -spec win32-g++ VERSION=0.244 QMC2_MINGW=1 SDL=2 TARGET=qmc2-mame CONFIG+=warn_off CONFIG+=release QMC2_LIBS+=-LC:/msys64/mingw64/lib/ QMC2_INCLUDEPATH+=C:/msys64/mingw64/lib/../include QMC2_INCLUDEPATH+=C:/msys64/mingw64/lib/../include/SDL2            'DEFINES+=QMC2_MAME QMC2_VERSION=0.244 BUILD_OS_NAME=Windows BUILD_OS_RELEASE=10.0.22000 BUILD_MACHINE=x86_64-w64-mingw32 PREFIX=.

I installed the official Qt packages already, will try to use them. Last edited by qmc2; 06/10/22 02:02 PM. A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work unless it's open. [Frank Zappa]
