After some testing it seems to happen if you just specify folders as "folders". Try changing it to have the full path instead - it worked for me.

Yes, you're right. It seems to be ignoring everything in the Folders folder. I'll try to find out what's going on.

Can you add more info?

That's intentional, the pointer will always show in windowed mode. I don't know about alignment to the crosshairs, have you checked what mame does? Personally I don't like crosshairs and rather be rid of them and use the mouse pointer instead.

Excellent suggestion. Problem solved - and I don't have to do anything. 😛

MAMEUI64 0.265.0 has been released. Available at https://messui.1emulation.com - Fixed a regression with the mouse pointer. Added some previews of improvements that might appear in MAME in the near future - Applied a fix for a last minute regression with some music synthesizers: https://github.com/mamedev/mame/commit/af6afca9a52b36f3b57cd174fa2a0b6bf1730524 - Sharp MZ700: Updated software list as per MT 08811: https://mametesters.org/view.php?id=8811 - Sord M5: Increase RAM to address MT 08796. https://mametesters.org/view.php?id=8796 Please note that on Windows 10 and 11, Microsoft Defender has recently been noticed to randomly flag and delete executables that are unsigned or not approved by them, with a nonsense virus warning. This can happen with any homebrew program, not just MAME. Please be careful. You might need to replace Defender with something more reliable.

The default keys for save states changed in MAME. Read: https://docs.mamedev.org/usingmame/defaultkeys.html Looks like you are pressing LeftShift F7. If the keys are not working as documented either delete cfg/default.cfg, or change the key definitions via Tab, Input Settings, Input Assignments (general).

HBMAME has a new PGM driver which is much closer to hardware than previously. If the game can't run on real hardware then it most likely won't run in HBMAME. Some of these hacks were created on hacked-up emulators and nobody knows what they did.

Have you got the descriptions of these sets? Otherwise I'll just have to say "unknown hack". EDIT: oldsplus211 has been added as "oldsps28". I was not able to get the kov hacks to work, so they have been left out.

i'll take a look, thanks.

I can't read it. Which button do I click on the 2nd screen?

Thanks. I think this will be the last version for XP as the project coordinator has decided that GCC 10.3 will be the minimum version going forward.
