Emu Loader v4.6.2

posted in Frontend News by mfc on Aug 16th, 2004

Emu Loader, an excellent open-source MAME frontend for Windows, has been updated recently also. From the homepage:

ROM names were not being handled correctly
CRC32 checksum of merged games were not being handled correctly when refreshing games
All options in MAME Configuration screen can be used when creating custom settings for games, including "MAME Plus!" and "No Name MAME" builds :)
When using "-listxml" to create a games list, the driver information is now extracted directly from this output (MAME 0.85 only!), making the "-listdetails" output needed only for older MAME versions that still use the old "-listinfo" output to create the games list
A few duplicated routines (merged into large ones)
All data extracted from MAME listxml / listinfo output are correctly decoded (HTML tags)
Read/write routines of MAME ini files and custom game ini files
Extract controllers mapping list
All new options from MAME 0.85
Menu option: "Generate Sequels File" in "Advanced User" main menu Use it to create a "sequels.ini" file based on the "series.ini" file maintained by "PaolinoF15"
Support for the new ctrlr files (.cfg extension and XML format)

You can download this from our MAME Frontends section.
