lr-mame2010 - editing and compiling the source code to disable the nag screens

dankcushions

lr-mame2003 and lr-imame4all have a built in option to disable these. if you're actually editing the code you might as well add a core option and submit it as a pull request to https://github.com/libretro/mame2010-libretro (or just use these other versions of mame..)

Thanks for your reply, but the built in option doesn´t work....see above.

mame_current_nagscreenpatch_enable = "enabled"

Maybe I'm just too stupid ... where is the trick?

I have added this issue.

i didn't say it did work in mame2010 - i said it DOES work in mame2003 and imame4all.

i've responded to your ticket. whilst there is a core option to disable nagscreens in 2010, that option doesn't appear to be connected to anything within the code. a fix is required i think.

Hi,

Just a quick question about the nag screen in 2003, great you added the option to suppress the disclaimer in the core options back in Feb, works great but is there any way to suppress the "screen flipping" and "inaccurate emulation" type nag screens?

Cheers

@movisman not without a further change, although it would be pretty easy. i think those screens are quite useful though!

Thanks, I was just curious more than anything. I agree, those screens do serve a purpose and can be very useful. I only have a few ROMs which give a warning on launch when using 2003 anyway, but actually the games run fine. If there was a quick core option to disable I might consider using it, but it's really no big deal. It's probably not worth implementing as the warnings are shown for a reason.

Hello!
You only need to comment out the line 301-323 (src/emu/ui.c).
Yes, only the fully block "switch".
I tested and everything seems to work.

if you've got the latest version it should skip the nagscreen by default. note, this is the 'copyright' screen, not the warning screen about incomplete graphics or whatever. those will always be shown.

@dankcushions I have the latest 4.0.1 and installed the latest lr-mame2010 from binaries and it still nags about being allowed to play blah blah
