What do you consider to be the best frontends for Mame & Mess?

Yesterday, 9:05 AM

It seems that the Mame and Mess teams are trying to kill the GUI versions of there emulators. What do you consider to be the best frontends for these emulators? I've seen one that combines both emulators but I prefer to keep them separate.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I really like the GUI version of Mame since it shows screenshots and all. But I'm really looking for simplicity of setup also. I don't want a big hassle whenever I update these emu's....

Has anyone here been able to get Meka working on Windows 7 64 bit? It just freezes up on startup for me...l

Mess bugs - Are they ever fixed?

Fri Feb 17, 2012 8:58 AM

I don't get the Mess emulator at all. It seems to me that bugs are never really fixed in this emulator even though they keep coming out with new versions. I mean there are a bunch of bugs in the Atari 5200 emulation that have been there that were reported 8 years ago. 8 years? Really? What is the point?

Windows 7 lock screen resolution

Sun Jul 17, 2011 8:17 AM

Does anyone know how to completely, utterly, permanently lock Windows 7 screen resolution to 800x600 60hz?

The pc in my Mame cab died so I replaced it with a Windows 7 64 bit pc and it works surprisingly well (a few emulators don't work but there are others i can use instead) except for 1 issue that's driving me nuts. Some games I have think they know better than me and change the screen resolution which causes my monitor to go over range and screws everything up. There was a way to force XP to only allow 1 resolution but I can't find a similar setting in Windows 7.

Any help would be greatly appreciated....

Thanks

Anyone recommend a Mame pc for my cabinet?

Fri Jul 8, 2011 7:36 PM

I'm looking to replace my Mame Cabinets PC that died due to a lightning strike at my place. I used it with my Wells Gardner monitor for Mame, Visual Pinball and various other emulators. Along with an act labs light gun. What should I look for in a replacement pc and what is a waste of money for a Mame cab?
