sweetpea: on the contrary, the rewrite is an undisputed good thing. It makes ports easier to maintain (so MacMAME will hopefully take less of Brad's time) and it makes controller handling *way* more flexible and powerful than ever before.

I just ran MacMAME on my G4 with Mac OS X 10.2.6 First of all, I delete the preference files (org.macmame.*).
Bad news:
- in many cases, changing the preferences (for example, allowing cheats) lead to a application lock-up; you end with a black screen and have to force-quit with Cmd-opt-esc. - Mac MAME crashes when you start a mouse-controlled game such as Crossbow, Operation Wolf or Under Fire. (I'm playing with mouse and keyboard). - Old Sega games - such as 005, Frogs, Blasto - refuse to run. - MacMAME still crashes when you press F4.
On the other side:
- slowdown of 0.77 is gone. - Sexy Parodius no longer makes MacMAME unexpectly quit, nor Die Hard Arcade - but this one still refuse to start, and the memory test shows two bad RAM blocks.
Sorry for the english!

In the previous version of MacMAME, the directional controls on the directional pad of my Logitech Dual Action Gamepad worked but wouldn't stick after I quit and relaunch MacMAME.
Now in 0.87 MacMAME the directional pad of my Logitech Dual Action Gamepad totally doesn't work.
Brad, when you have some spare time, could you please address this problem?

Its not such a good thing when your controller fails to work as it did previously. The worst offender so far is Crystal Castles. Yes I know its supposed to be used with a trackball but the previous implementation with an analogue stick was working just fine for me and other people. Lets just say I spent 2 hours with 0.87 today and the only games which I could play with satisfactory control were Star Wars and Starblade. I don't seem to be able to use my analogue stick as a digital directional controller anymore so that left most games completely unplayable. Not sure if thats anything to do with the rewrite but it can take the blame for now. So pooh to the controller rewrite.

My gamepad directionals dont't work any more. It's a Saitek P750. And when I try to customize the controls it crashes. But for the rest, GOOD WORK !!!

Well, I just checked macmame.org and the source code compiles in xcode 1.5. So I guess you can take the source and give that a shot.
