Nothing changed in 0.137 as far as anything frontends would care about so it should be fine.

I'm using it (as well as M+GUI), and am having no issues.

Not a problem... If you're new to the world of MAME on OS X, I would suggest starting with MAME_Tunes as a front end, as it's a dedicated Mac application, and a little easier to set up and maintain.

If you need help getting set up, please let us know.

thanks again will do.


***Edit***

Since SDLmame is now included in mame, do I just have to point MAME_Tunes to the Mame 0.137 exe file? or do I have to compile it?

Have you built your own MAME, or are you using a pre built version?

Building your own is fairly easy (See the instructions at the top of this forum), and gives you some control in the upgrade process.

Either way, you'll want to point MAME_Tunes at the mame binary (remember, an '.exe' file is not a Mac application), and as a matter of personal preference, I keep my MAME support files in a separate folder from the MAME application.

If I feel creative this weekend, I'll try my hand at writing a setup guide for MAME_Tunes...

For 0.137 with no u patches you don't need the endings step. Just continue on.
