The usual ones are, as usual, on archive.org . The others are scattered about various homebrew places, and if you ask nicely at RR, I might be able to gather them for you.

Yes, there's been some homebrew not available as normal roms, and the use of .neo files for homebrew seems to be increasing. It's not too hard to turn a neo file into normal roms, but i'd want to see what it looks like first. It also gives homebrew developers another avenue for testing before they make a release.

HBMAME 0.245.11 has been released.

What's new in HBMAME

New Games
---------------------------------
- [chuckie]             Chuckie Egg
- [dktrain2]            Donkey Kong Trainer 1.01 (bugfix)
- [neo2048]             Neo 2048
- [ngmvs]               Neo-Geo MultiMVS support
- [ngneo]               Neo Geo support of .neo files
- [pacjrz80]            Pac-Jr on Pacman Hardware
- [sbpf]                Super Bubble Pop (fixed)

Notes for ngmvs and ngneo:
- Very preliminary. Cheats, save-states, memcards etc have not been tested.
- If loading fails you'll get a black screen.
- Intended for testing of homebrew. Protected sets are not supported. However,
most standard games happen to work.
- Files are meant to be loaded as loose software. Use the inbuilt File Manager,
or the command-line (-quik <full path to file>).

ngneo:
- Can use a Software List. An example xml has been included which you can expand upon.

ngmvs:
- The file extension is 7z, which works fine from command-line but is treated as a
directory by the File Manager. You'll have to enter it and choose any file within.
- The files within must be at the root of the 7z, or loading will fail.

You already have 19 posts so it should have worked - maybe the system wants an extra one just to be sure to be sure.

I've split this to a new thread as it was off-topic.

Now, quoting myself:

Quote

In MAME, the files arcade.flt and mess.flt were deleted, however you can create your own and it will work as before. The only difference is that you need to maintain them yourself instead of being done by the developers.

This means you will get the error: Definition file for TARGET=mame SUBTARGET=arcade does not exist

So, you need to create your own copy of arcade.flt, and maintain it. If you want, you can copy the file from the source of ARCADE64 (included in the main download).

Turns out there's a front-end called MAME Classic, so I might have to change the name again for the next release.

MAME? not MAMEUI? Both compile here fine.

MAMEUI64 Classic 0.253.1 is released. This catches a few late changes on the MAME side.

March 29, 2023

There's a late patch coming through, so 0.253.1 will be released soon. Please wait for a day or 2.

March 29, 2023

MAMEUI64 Classic 0.253.0 is released.

https://messui.1emulation.com/

https://arcade.mameworld.info/messui

There's been a truckload of new and invasive bugs in MAME recently, so you'll most likely get some weird things happening, especially if you use a joystick or game controller. Make sure you read the new document about setting up your controller:

https://docs.mamedev.org/advanced/ctrlr_config.html

If MAME crashes, then most likely it will take down the frontend with it.

The support for arcade.ini, console.ini, computer.ini and othersys.ini have been removed from MAME, and so these files will be ignored. In MAMEUI the support of arcade.ini was restored.

In MAME, the files arcade.flt and mess.flt were deleted, however you can create your own and it will work as before. The only difference is that you need to maintain them yourself instead of being done by the developers.

There's a new development branch being created for MAMEUI - it will have a new name (suggestions?) and a lot of improvements. It's not a priority though, so it could be many months before you see anything.

In the meantime the old worn-out MAMEUI has been rebranded as "Classic" - it will require GCC 10.1, and will only get updates to keep it working. There won't be any new features. The release schedule is (at this time) expected to be every 3 months.

As always, do NOT post questions about anything at reddit - all you'll get is insults, plus bonus lies about me. Save yourself the angst and ask here or at mameworld.
