Development of module-script generator for lr-mess, lr-mame and mame standalone

I think you know how to install the arcade dynarec catergory now to test only the drivers that use dynarec.

So I do what you wrote above and Dynarec works automatically, right?

It works !!! I tested ktmnt2 and now we can heard the Ninja Turtle voice. That's great! It's very good for game with voices. For 005 the sound is better and different when shooting.
Comment: maybe you should add .7z with the .zip in the Link roms from folder ~/RetroPie/BIOS/mame by default. Now it's only .zip . Thank you for your hard work!

Good to hear that you have worked it out.
Will have a look at that 7z idea so you can choose between .zip or 7z.

@DTEAM

I had the idea to make a sophisticated change but it seemed too difficult so I added a quick possibility to link .7z files.

Let me know if this solution is good enough.

Hi Folly

Have you work on runcommand.sh in your scritp? Since I did the installation, I have this message in my log when I try to load Xinit-wmc for any other emulators

/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 1330: XINIT-WMC:: command not found

Maybe it's not linked. I’ll reinstall the original one.
New edit: fixed , I reinstalled runcommand. Maybe double check on your side

Folly

@DTEAM

I did not work on the runcommand.sh.
I think it's something else.

DTEAM

@Folly
Recently I played with MESA and Vulkan to install an emulator in developement at an early stage for Nintendo 3DS. Probably that.

Folly

@DTEAM

Ok.
Thanks for letting me know.

Btw
Good initiative !

Folly

I dropped the new aarch64 275 mame binary for rpi3,4,5.

DTEAM

@Folly
MAME 0.275 (new games)

~~The Block Kuzushi - tblkkuzug All_in_one (not sure if it's arcade or handheld, it's not Nintendo's)~~
Elektronika Basketbol - elbaskb Classich
Tronica Space Adventure trspacadv Classich
Konami Chequered Flag kchqflag Konamih

Folly

I have added them to the ini files for the future.

Folly

@DTEAM

Updated to 275.

These 4 classich drivers were somehow removed :
epo_tetr
gigapets
stackch
venusdm

Not sure why.
Perhaps they don't even belong there in the first place.
We might need to check it.

Edit :
I checked earlier commits and files and above drivers were not in earlier classich.ini's.
Somehow github presents a wrong diff over here.
Conclusion, all should be good.

Edit 2 :
Altered the databases with the info from here :
Tutorial: Handheld and Plug & Play systems with MAME
Should be fixed now for data 274 and 275.

Folly

To get the latest things :
- Update the script in order to get the latest good database !
- Update the artwork as new ones are added by @DTEAM !
- Create ovelays again to get the latest added backgrounds !

Folly

New versions of 275 lr-mess and lr-mame binaries have been added.

Folly

New versions of mame 276 binaries have been added.
No lr-mame/lr-mess yet.

DTEAM

@Folly

I didn't see anything for us in this version.

Folly

@DTEAM

No I didn't either.

I read some nice things though :

Philips CDI improvements
faster ARM dynarec improvements

That is why I only made a binary for rpi5 to get the most out of it.
