Emu Loader v4.3.2

posted in Frontend News by mfc on Jan 5th, 2004

Emu Loader, a great frontend for MAME, has been updated again recently. Here is what's new this time around:
    Fixes:
  • Weird bug in the source that was freezing the entire system (Win9x users only), caused by the new picture types folder selector buttons
  • Access violation when trying to sort a column or select a game if the games list is empty
  • Access violation in a lot of features, when the games list is empty


    • Changes:
  • "Use Full Edge" options are now merged into one "Full Edge", moved to the "Effects" box ("Preferences" screen)... no need to have it for each picture filter, since they all work now :)
  • Language file updated
  • Added a few extra verifications when trying to load images in the frontend, in case of an incomplete/corrupted file
  • Update the Light Gun command line parameters for MAME 0.78


    • Removed:
  • Unused "OLE" variable in the "DAT Viewer" screen that was loading "ole32pro.dll" file. This dll is never used, since EL does not do OLE operations


    • Optimized:
  • Games view mode
  • Emulator select menus
  • Code cleaned up a little bit, after the mess of v4.3.1


    • New Additions:
  • "Show Command Line" menu item in "Emulator" main menu
    Shows the complete command line before running games
  • "Run M.A.M.E. After Initialization" ("Preferences" screen, "M.A.M.E." tab)
    This option execute MAME binaries once with a dummy parameter to prevent frontend errors such: " Cannot open file "EmuVersionX.tmp" ", and similars. This option is enabled by default (naturally) :)
