Mame Plus and hacked games


Recommended Posts

I was wondering, after seeing all of the hacks that some MAME variants can play. Are the hacked games basically the same as using the IPS patches that can be applied to some of the games in Mame Plus, or are they something totally different?

Thank you, Gryph. Would you happen to know of any sites that might have some IPS patches other than the ones I can get from the MamePlus site?

The rude generalization of creating IPS files would be the following:

 

1. Get an an unaltered file.

2. Alter the file yourself (via hexediting or whatever method) or find a file that already has the changes you want.

3. Get an IPS patcher and tell it to create an IPS file. The program then compares the data between the two files and dumps the "difference" data to an IPS file.
