MacMAME Troubleshooting ReportMacMAME is now MAME OS X - Version: 0.103u2, 11/13/2007 12:28AM PST

The MacMAME project is no longer active because of Brad Oliver's work obligations as a program writer for a respectable software company and he has also cited Apple's deprecation of Carbon. (...and it came out a diamond!)

MAME is still under development and on the Mac there are a few projects.

First is MAME OS X - a special Mac version that takes advantage of all Mac OS X's core technologies.

Second is SDLMAME which it looks like you have to compile yourself (lots of information at rbelmont.mameworld.info).

Third is Advance MAME and Advance MENU which runs in X-Windows and can be installed through FINK.

MacMAME CommentaryScrapped? - Version: 0.103u2, 7/24/2007 02:27AM PST

I love this program, but there hasn't been any updates for a long time, and I'm wondering if the author died or something. I sure hope not. Games with analog controls don't play well (or at all) with my Xbox 360 pad. Seems more jerky on my double 2.66 Ghz dual core Mac Pro than it does on my dual 1 Ghz G4 for some reason. Still great, though.

MacMAME Commentaryfantastic! - Version: 0.103u2, 10/7/2006 04:01PM PST

one of the most fabolous programs ever (and FREE!!).

Macmame, include in the MAME project, is a great effort of Brad oliver for adapt the original mame and to keep it upload. thank you

this program has made able to play old (and not so old) classic arcade games to the mac comunity from almost the begining of the MAME years ago.

there is not a perfect version yet, and that it´s almost imposible, there are a lot of changes in the software and in the hardware.

just try to get the one you need for the rom you want, and enjoy!

MacMAME ReviewI couldn't get it to work, either... - Version: 0.103u2, 7/8/2006 06:11PM PST

The program would just start to launch, then immediately close, despite my trying to put a MacMame User Data folder with ROMS in the User/Documents folders as specified. The last version of MacMame I downloaded was 0.77 (which was a few years ago). Maybe that's why I couldn't get this new one working. But in all instances before, I'd still have certain games that wouldn't work on every version (or would just be unplayably choppy), and would thus have to keep older versions of MacMame in order to be able to still play these games (case in point, I'm still forced to keep version 0.37 to play games like "Alien Storm," "Asteroids," "Narc," "Qix," "Raiden," "Street Fighter 2," "Willow," even though this version works on Classic). Overall, this meant I ended up with 4 versions total, just to play all the games I want.

Now, I have an old G4 with 400MHz (yes, I know I need to upgrade), running OSX10.3.9. So can anyone tell me any reason--besides the fact that the last version of MacMAME I had several versions ago--that this shouldn't be working? Because I would really once and for all like to try to get 1-2 versions that can play ALL of my ROMS (or that will allow me to break my dependence on 0.37, and the Classic environment...)

Help!!

MacMAME CommentaryCould we, um, get some improvements? - Version: 0.103u2, 6/24/2006 11:03AM PST

peterpayne
First of all, let me say that I ***love*** MacMame here. It's changed my life, literlaly. Is there, um, any way there could be an improvement in Mame for the Mac, though? I've been using it since 1997 and it's not changed much at all. When (say), the Universal version is made (please please please) could there be improvements, like, the Automator interface? I'd love to be able to donate to the improvement of this great tool (since I can't program).
