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

DTEAM

Perhaps I can upload the mame binary to zippyshare.

Interested ?

Yes

Folly

The whole directory /opt/retropie/emulators/mame :
~~mame0233_RPI4_Buster_32bit~~
(File Life: 30 days after no activity.)

Edit :
No need to download anymore.
Retropie has updated the mame binary to 0233.

Option (line 11) doesn't work for me. Is it the same for you.

Do you use add-mamedev-systems-test6_temp.sh ?

@folly
Other systems to try :

Those systems doesn't work for me.

DTEAM

@folly
I got your last version from your link above : add-mamedev-systems.sh
I have used line 10 instead of line 11. Line 11 doesn't work for me when it's time to load systems by letters.

Folly

@dteam

Which link ?, be sure you use temp.
Did you remove other versions ?

No problem for me, I can select line 11.
Just installed those.

I picked it fresh from github, so it should work.

@folly
I’ll do another test

Folly

@dteam

I created an issue on github for mame.
https://github.com/mamedev/mame/issues/8274
Hopefully they can fix it.

Folly

@dteam

Any luck yet ?

DTEAM

@folly
Retropie added a precompiled MAME 0.233. So now it’s fine from binary

Folly

@dteam

Ok, I will check.
(edit: yes, indeed retropie updated it to 0233 !)

But the temp front-end module-script doesn't depend on mame because of the drc issue.
So this was an other issue I presume.

Folly

@dteam

I tried to run these :

benesse pocket challenge MAME name POCKCHAL
Tiger Gizmondo : MAME name GIZMONDO
Zeebo (Brasil) : MAME name: ZEEBO

No luck so far.

@folly
Same thing for me

@dteam

While busy with these, I found roms for other handheld systems and those are working.
I have to see on my other pi4 what these systems are.
But I think you have them already working as they booted in Artwork.

Btw. there is bad output from mame -softwarelist

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ /opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -listsoftware pockchal
gives on all games => supported="no">

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ /opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -listsoftware zeebo
No software lists found for this system

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ /opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -listsoftware gizmondo
No software lists found for this system

@dteam

I have these running :

gamecom
gamepock
pockstat

Great !!! On my end, what I have been able to get to work as portable or keyboard less systems is listed here.

gamecom, gamepock and pockstat are in that list.
BTW , the artwork for pockstat is from me. I created that one (-; I always thought the Sony Pocket Station looked like a baby radio monitor. Strange design

Folly

@dteam

Yes indeed I should have known it right away.
But it was obvious as the artwork was already there :-)

We could just add these and more in the front-end menu in the menu option :
Handhelds / Plug & play

What do you think ?
Or is that too much ?

DTEAM

@folly
Yes, It would be great

Folly

@dteam

Ok, I will see what I can do.
