      It also uses the GPU for post-processing effects like scanlines.

      That's a major drawback of mame4all, the scanline effects are a turd for sure compared to the Libretro shaders. =/

      @grant2258 - I don't think there's much demand. I'm just an advocate of that lean, mean, little core. I even have a version that runs well on my iPad albeit the controls are less than optimal but thanks a lot for the considering it!

          @grant2258 - The word wordspress has flipped letters.

              @grant2258 The links doesn't work, but that's how almost everything works in RetroPie - we don't use X unless the emulator/game requires it.

                  I think it needs to be wordspress. Words is plural and then it worked.

                        @ClassicGMR Tapper works in mame2003plus (not sure about non-plus). It also works fine in finalburn-neo but tapper.zip requires midssio.zip. What I do, is insert the contents from midssio.zip to tapper.zipso it doesn't clutter up my menu.
