With the amount of shit programming in mame I'm sometimes forced to revert to an earlier version to be bug-free for select games. And in one case, I go way back to a dos version.

As far as the user experience goes, these are among the worst written bits of software in town. Not to mentioned bloated and buggy to all hell. So don't get all flustered. The numerous front-end choices is also very confusing to the newbie also. The quality is all over the board here as well.

Wish I had an answer for you.

For me, I just use an old dos program. It works for me since I am picky about what games I like and play. There's so much shit and bloat in mess & mame it's beyond belief. Very poor management. Commercial software often does better'n this.

Console Menu 2.1, it's old, it's dos, and it works for me.

In Topic: Stella 3.6 released

Yesterday, 11:24 PM

Just wondering if there is even a need to release it? Some programs are released weekly, and others..?? Well, I have one that I consider regularly updated, and that has gone through 7 revisions in 12 years!!

So there is no rush.

As far as the memory requirements - I load iTunes, Orbiter Spaceflight Simulator, Word, Outlook, Foxit PDF Reader with several manuals, dual mouse driver, and sometimes Firefox and Stellarium all at the same time. So with all that going on a 2Gb machines ram can get kinda stuffy and scarce. But so far so good!
