RocketBlinky MAME Project - Help Wanted!!


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi Guys,

 

With 1.0 officially released, I'm ready to start crowd-sourcing info in an effort to complete the missing MAME games from the colors.ini and controls.ini files. 

 

To that end, I've created a Google Doc with about 1,000 missing games -- so far I'm focusing only on games that use joysticks + up to 6 buttons.

For tracking purposes, the Google Doc is invite only and any additions should include a link to the source used. All additions require sources. 

 

Any help would be very much appreciated!

 

If you're interested in joining the team and would like to help add missing games to RocketBlinky, please send me a PM. 

 

Thanks!

Works good, well done for doing all that research. Only issue with the app, is if desktop resolution smaller than 1280 it over fills the screen.  Also I would consider adding default profiles as clicking on every drop down is long, only a suggestion from a users point.

 

Colours - I'll post what updates I'm doing and my source, up to you if you implement.

 

Model 3 - Virtua Striker displays button colours in game,  goal kick/throw in

Mame - Hyper Bishi Bashi \ Super Bishi Bashi show colors in game.

Hi Bob, 

 

Thanks for using the app and the feedback. A default layout would be tricky, as there is no generally accepted "best" layout for keymapping, yet. If the community ever agrees on one, I'm happy to add it as a default. The app does have an INI file, though, so it will remember your layout for the future, to make updates easier.

 

Regarding the GUI, the resolution issue is a shortcoming, but I'm not sure there is an easy solution, based on the coding language. 

 

Thanks for the info on those 2 games. That's exactly what we're after. While it is a nice dream to expect to get all of the data from cpanel images, that is never going to happen. I do plan to use the in-game colors as a last resort, if there is no other data available. 

I'll add these 2 games to the list. 

SpotUp, I don't have Model 3 setup on my system yet. Let's discuss. Looks like there are some cabinet compatible games, at least one, that we could add. I think you have that one setup...

Model 3, from what i can see...vf3 you could use same colors to others in the series, if known..if no other source available

I tested fighting vipers but no colors in game, apart from vs2 vf3 and spikeout i dont think any other games really need colors, never played virtualon or starwars, but also work is being done on supermodel so maybe review all games after they finish the new renderer
