AdvanceMENU 1.9
posted in Frontend News by xip on Mar 27th, 2001
AdvanceMENU is a frontend for MAME. Here's what's new:
Added a new event `rotate' to rotate the screen at runtime for cocktail machines. This event is mapped for default on the `0 PAD' key
Added support for zipped colletions of images and sounds. Simply copy the .zip archives with the .png,.pcx,.ico, .mp3,.wav in the various snap, flyers... directories. For best performance the .zip archives containing `.png' and `mp3' files should be compressed in `storing' mode (without compression). These file formats are already compressed and don't need to be compressed another time.
Added support for 4 bit .ico files
Long icon titles are now truncated and not skipped
Solved the crash bug with empty preview images.
The first preview image found is used. Not the last.
Changed the default value of `cfg_scan' and `crc_scan' to `no'
Added the `-default' option to force the creation of a default `mm.cfg'
Get it at the arcade frontends page.
