Hey man, you have a favorite MAME frontend? Just something easy to configure.

Frankly, no, I still use the commandline. But here's some info discussing some:

Looks like Hyperspin or QMC2 might be options.

Damnit Hyperspin looks like a real pain in the ass.

Ugh, Hyperspin sucks. I'll just write scripts for each rom I have on MAME.

how about this one?

Holy , I haven't played MAME since using xmame on Linux. That was simple to use in BASH, apparently the official branch of MAME in Windows has a bad UI.

MameUI is exactly what I was looking for. It's simple as .

MAME went through a mega conversion at some point, fully rewritten in C++ and heavy on XML... haven't really followed that much.

You used to be able to just start mame.exe and get a list of your installed games.

Nice, I'll pin it just in case.

This is the first time I have used official Windows MAME since like 2006, and was used to how xmame works.

As soon as the 360 came out I bought that , ditched XP and said fucc pc gaming, and went to Linux until I built a gaming PC in late 2014 and of course had to go back to Redmond. Back in Linux xmame has a super easy command line interface. I'd put my button config in a file called say battletoads. and then write a BASH script battletoads.sh that just executed something like xmame $HOME/roms/mame/battletoads.zip -cfg $HOME/cfg/mame/battletoads. .

Commandline still works on windows, but it might have changed some params... but you can use the built-in UI (TAB IIRC)

I haven't used the Windows build in years (until about last month when I had to work on some SNK games for my current project) and when I was on the Mac, I used to use and contribute to the SDL version, which IIRC also runs on Linux, and it's a lot closer, UI-wise to the Windows build.

LOL, yeah I just saw it has the same syntax. I forgot you have to set rompath in the command, you just can't give the link to rom zipfile. I was just playing Bad Dudes on it.

I was using EmulationStation on my Raspberry Pi, but I got tired of all the configuration issues. It's a nice front end tho.
