    Homebrew Bubble Memories message on mame2003

    Currently you must use a keyboard to "press" the service button. There is a bounty fundraiser going to make the service button remappable: https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-plus-libretro/issues/147 However there should be a workaround already in place that allows people like you without a...

    Custom Firmware for Atgames Legends Flashback with support for Arcade games

    Thank you for getting me up to speed. This code looks fine to me, and my basic test of compiling it and running it in Windows 10 with RetroArch worked fine. Therefore, I'm going to go ahead and put in a PR to add everything except the `zim/ZIM` extension support. Thank you for working on this...

    Custom Firmware for Atgames Legends Flashback with support for Arcade games

    Do I understand correctly that the Atari device is using RetroArch as the mame2003 frontend? If so, is it the case that you cannot change the RetroArch settings in retroarch.cfg in order to designate a different libretro SYSTEM path?

    Custom Firmware for Atgames Legends Flashback with support for Arcade games

    Hi folks. I'm one of the maintainers of the MAME 2003 and MAME 2003-Plus. I'm also a contributor to MAME 2000. Thanks for your work to make improved versions available on this platform! I wanted to let you know that if you are making changes and improvements to the cores in order to make them...

    Thank you very much for sending the code and diff patch. It seems like it would be possible on first glance to modify the standard Makefile to include the split Wii cores. I'll be studying it!

    That's not true in general -- mame2003 and mame2003-plus support multiple simultaneous lightguns. Lightgun works fine via the RetroArch mouse interface and via the analog controls. I don't know anything about the Wii and WiiU operating system but if your device can be seen as a mouse or an...

    Hacking how to compile retroarch for wii U ?

    We might be able to incorporate the split cores into the official Makefile in some way, or at least make it available as part of the official repository in some other way. If you just want to paste the Makefile into pastebin I'll take a look -- no need for you to set up a whole github repository...

    To see the Game Info screen with resolution etc you need to open the MAME menu. You can open the MAME menu by first opening the RetroArch "Quick Menu" and toggling the MAME Menu option. When you leave the Quick Menu you'll have access to the MAME menu. Alternatively some map the MAME menu...

    Homebrew Mame 2003 Plus

    mame 0.78 was originally developed with only x86 processor architectures and compilers in mind. It seems that by default the compiler for WiiU provides unsigned chars but that is not what the m92 is built to assume. This is based on my guess that the same issue applies to WiiU as ARM, it is an...

    Hacking how to compile retroarch for wii U ?

    I help maintain the official mame2003-plus repository: https://github.com/libretro/mame2003-plus-libretro/ Can you link me to the code with the fixes? Is the only fix to the m92 sound core? I see that issue has to do with signed versus unsigned chars and was fixed for the WiiU with a compiler...

    Homebrew Mame 2003 Plus

    Am I correct that what WiiU users would like is to have -fsigned-char set as a compiler flag for mame2003-plus? I have just made that change to the Makefile so that it will be part of the libretro buildbot versions of RetroArch. We already set that flag for ARM architectures. Is there anything...

    Hacking how to compile retroarch for wii U ?

    Ah hah. I can't help you with your question, at least not in the way you asked. I am in a position to add improved this code to the official mame2003-plus repository, however. Do you know why no one has submitted it to us as a PR yet? If there's some way that we, the mame2003-plus developers...

    Hacking how to compile retroarch for wii U ?

    I think that the latest version of mame2003-plus should already be included in the "nightly" WiiU RetroArch version. Does the WiiU not get RetroArch nightlies on the buildbot?

    Please come to the mame2003-plus github repository and post your question as an Issue. As a new member to these forums I can't include a link directly to the Issue section. We will do our best to help.

    That would require a change at the RetroArch level -- that kind of information is part of the RetroArch log but I imagine there's no good way to capture it on your console. It's a good suggestion though. You could post about it on the libretro forums or in the RetroArch github issue tracker. (I...

    Thanks, testing is so essential since coders working on the libretro cores often don't have the same equipment that users are testing with. I'm not a regular reader here so please feel free to help direct anyone working with mame2003 or mame2003-plus to the github repositories. New contributors...

    Would you be willing to talk with us about your work in the issues section of the mame2003-plus github repository? If you are finding new ways to speed optimize mame2003-plus then it might be worth adding them directly to the repository for everyone with low-power systems to benefit from.
