The devs changed where the save-state status is stored, and how it is represented. That info isn't available to newui afaict, so it's switched on always, just like MAME itself is, via F7. I have no idea why they changed it, as it was working fine before, and there's heaps of other things that need to be fixed but won't be.

That's a known bug in MAME (see mametesters bug 9192), and it's been fixed for the next release. It can be worked around though. Either you can stay with PortAudio and in Windows configure an input device (such as a microphone), OR go into the default global settings, Sound, and choose something that isn't Auto or PortAudio.

MAMEUI64 0.278.0 has been released. Available at https://messui.1emulation.com There's been a complete rewrite of the sound system by the devs. Please try it out and familiarise yourself with the new settings which are in each game's tab menu.

Yes, that is intended.

MAMEUI64 0.277.0 has been released. Available at https://messui.1emulation.com Changes: - Bugfixes for location of ini files - Bugfixes for various things in the Interface Options menu - Rename horizontal.ini to horizont.ini to align with MAME - C64: removed restrictions on .crt files which caused half of the existing files to be rejected - New Not-Working system: Cybervision 2001 - In treeview, fixed changing to another folder and not switching back - In Game Properties, the Software tab only shows if the system supports software - fixed crash if swpath is empty Please note: The options system has had a number of changes. If you are upgrading your existing installation, you need to copy ini\mame.ini and ini\ui.ini to the emulator root, otherwise you might lose your settings. * Also, it is very highly recommended that all paths be absolute paths - relative paths are considered unreliable.

Found out what happened, but not why. Some of the default settings from mame are changed for mameui, but for some unknown reason they changed back, so causing problems for some people. I've just had to fix it up.

There's been a few complaints about that, although I haven't changed anything in that area. Of course, it doesn't happen for me. All I can suggest (which seems to work) is to change all the relative paths to absolute ones, in mame.ini, ini\mame.ini, and ini\ui.ini For example if it said "roms", change that to "C:\mameui\roms" (or wherever your mameui is installed). And most importantly, make sure that inipath is set to "c:\mameui\ini" (so it is a folder from where mameui is installed), in mame.ini and ini\mame.ini . This is a bug that can affect mame and all derivatives, but for some reason mameui is affected more than the others. There's a rework of the options system planned, although I don't know when I'll have the time to do it.

Version 0.276.1 has been released. It contains some late changes from the devs, and some other minor changes under the hood.
