      Hello all,
      1st - I like MAME, but since the merging with MESS, I want to know if compiling MAME in retropie will compile MAME with MESS or only MAMEArcade, if MAME is compiled a whole with MESS would be nice to have access to the compiling flags to add 'SUBTARGET=arcade' or 'SUBTARGET=mess', theres any way for overwrite it?

      2nd - Compiling anything in a Raspberry Pi like MAME is very resorce hungry, is there any crosscompile type fakeroot to compile it, or creating retorpie system ready to install in a Raspberry Pi?

      I would like to compile Retropie to 64bit system minimal advance will be welcome!

      Thank you

        you could edit the script. add it here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/emulators/mame.sh#L48

            A while ago I added the stickfreaks binary install option in my script.
            Still in the the secret menu/test menu though.

            If you want to try, let me know, I will send you some more info.
