Release MAME EX - Beta [Video]

[Mr_Loon]

@ Streak : Many thanks for all your hard work with this, it looks like it's shaping up to be the definitive version of Mame for Pandora. Just wondering if you could confirm a couple of things :


1) This will use the Mame 0.110 romset


2) What speed you have the Pandora clocked at when you're making your demo videos (really hoping it's not 1Ghz )

 

[milkshake]

from the videos it looks like its being clocked at 800mhz

1. Yeah, but any previous romset should work [as i stated previously -> very old roms from RomNation works]


2. 800Mhz, but if You're hardcore enough , you can OC it to 1Ghz for smoother play [i think that MK / MK2 and maybe UMK should play normally on 1Ghz (not tested) ]


btw. Nubs cant be used as normal joystick [i tried that, it would be excellent for shmups..]. Sorry..


but hey, ... nubs will be working as lightgun / pedal [up/down] / paddle in MAME EX.


cheers..

Does the romset that's used for MAME4ALL work with this new version, or is that far too antiquated entirely?

 

[StreaK]

it should, but im not 100% sure. You'll need to check it by yourself [hint* maybe in this month ]

(fingers crossed then!)

btw. Smash TV is not working [this was not expected].. i'll investigate...

Thanks for the incl shmups.. great to see Truxton II

Nice to see Bubble Memories


Too bad it doesn't run at a playable speed, but I definitely wasn't expecting it

 

[StreaK]

i think B Memories is playable enough, only music + sounds delays are crappy, but can be played with sound off.

Smashtv uses double analog joysticks on the real cabinet.

@mcobit indeed i played it at replay this year

Aaaaw, I don't like playing games without music


But looking at the counter and the game, it seems to run at about 70-80% speed only.

Like i said earlier taito f3 hardware is processor hungry whereas konami gx ie salamander 2 is fullspeed nearly with 1ghz overclock with higher clockspeed strange?(with 106)

Sounds like an overclock to 1 Ghz might well help then. From my understanding overclocking to 1 Ghz is by no means pushing the envelope. From memory the expected mean time between failure for the Pandora chip at 1 Ghz is something like 10,000 hours, which equates to over 13 years if you use the Pandora for 2 hours every day (at 1 Ghz). Forgive me if I'm wrong with this, it was discussed quite some time ago on the boards.

Bubble memories only runs at 83% and thats with my pandora overclocked to 1075mhz

Streak, will mame-ex work with a usb joystick ?

 

[sukhi2011]

I've been looking at the games it plays,it seems awesome in every respect,it good to see super hang on running so well.


I do agree with ed saying don't like to play games without music,i don't prefer to play games without music,it's full gaming experience.
