In case anyone wants to know if history.xml is supported, no it isn't. You'll have to use the dat format as I have no plans to support XML at this time.

MESS, MESSUI and MAMEUI 0.228 are released. https://messui.1emulation.com/ https://arcade.mameworld.info/messui Changes: - fixed art preview - fixed bug with some directories - NES: if an unemulated mapper is encountered, do not crash. - if a plugin can't be found, do not crash. - SNES: added smc extension for cartridges

From 0.228: hbmame64.exe -> hbmame.exe hbmameui64.exe -> hbmameui.exe The 32-bit versions will have 32 appended to the names (hbmame32.exe, hbmameui32.exe). From 0.229: mame64.exe -> mame.exe - if you create a 32-bit mame, it will also be called mame.exe, just to confuse everyone. mameui64.exe -> mameui.exe - the 32-bit version will be mameui32.exe mess64.exe -> mess.exe - the 32bit version will be mess32.exe messui64.exe -> messui.exe - the 32-bit version will be messui32.exe Arcade32/64 will be unchanged. I will not be building 32-bit versions, nor testing that the above names will actually happen. If you build them and the names are wrong, just rename them.

You are correct, it's a bug. It's been fixed now. Thanks for reporting it.

ste2: I tried the Emu France build on Vista and on XP, and it works.

StHiryu, I tested your build on Vista, it cannot run. The error is: The procedure entry point K32GetProcessMemoryInfo could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll So, the oldest OS is now Windows 7.

That's just the ending summary. There would have been another error earlier in the process.

We suspected it might be the end for XP, but nobody knew for sure. I'll download a copy and see if it works on 32-bit Vista. What was the fatal error, btw?

Wish I could help you, but I've never used Daphne, and those laser disks are just too huge to bother downloading. Hopefully someone else may know.

Well.... turned out mess had acquired a weird bug inside the debugger. This turned out to be a commctrl problem, and I noticed that inclusion of the manifest was missing in uicl.rc Adding it back in fixed the debugger. So having a manifest is important even for non-gui windows programs.

Glad to see you have a working system. As part of the recent upgrades, messui was reclassified as a production system, which means it's not intended for development work, but instead to be used for its intended task - running games. As such, all debugger facilities have been removed. If you want to do debugging, you use mess or mame.

It just occurred to me that you might be a victim of a changed compile script. These don't get uploaded until release time, so you wouldn't have seen it. Here's the new lines that you wouldn't know about for messui. The reason for the lines about messvers.rc and mameui.rc is to force that stuff to be recompiled, since changes to mameui.rc are not normally detected. Also, mess does not need most of the code and icons that exist in messui, so reducing code bloat. The reason for the lines about messui.txt , mess.bak and mess.flt, is because messui only includes systems that work, not everything in mess. When compiling mess for command-line, here's the new lines The "touch" command is a unix-based command to update the "last-updated" time on a file to the current time. This causes the compiler to think the file has been updated and needs to be recompiled. Touch comes with the msys2 package, so you probably have it somewhere. If you compare ui.rc against uicl.rc, you'll see that ui.rc has the full list of menus and icons used in messui, where uicl.rc only has the menus for the NewUI. These compile changes need to be rolled out to HBMAME as well, but it hasn't been done yet. Hope this helps.

I'll have a look at that. Things were changed around in messui recently. However this particular change was not done with mameui or hbmame; are you able to build and run them?

Windows 10, 64 bit. It's a few months behind updates though. Not using 20H2 - I never use their bleeding-edge version, because of the bugs that they always seem to include. I'll most likely get the minimum of updates around end-of-year.
