I can't get joystick functions to work on the Atari 2600 driver of MESS.

Isn't MESS based on MAME? They update it quickly (well, sometimes) after new versions of MAME are released. They are probably intentionally using the same version number as MAME.

Ive only downloaded MESS once and as far as I know, and didnt like it much becauses its messy emulimations of systems, its like a frontend with all the popular systems in one.

Expect you need to obtain the ROMs and Games, etc.

But yes as far I know it is like MAME as far as the startup screens go.

obviously xulchris would know more about this.

Im gonna download MESS 0.70 now, and try it out again.

Does anyone know what MESS stands for as MAME is Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, i think.

MESS uses the same core code as MAME and so it uses the same version number as MAME does

I know now, and I now know I aint funny afterall.

I just was playing around with MESS last nite (Multiple Emulator Super System), and theres a lot of systems ive never heard of before.

How much disk space does MESS take up if you wanna to add all the BIOS ROMs into the Bios directory, so all the system will work?

The APEXC says it was a system designed in 1957. I had a look at that, it seems modern looking for 1957, althought all I saw was a white screen with confusing number codes or something to press.
There couldnt possiblly be games for that system.

MESS for Macintosh users has been updated to the latest version!
