AHK file for MAME .215?


Psynaptik

Recommended Posts

I updated my MAME roms to 215 from 0170 recently, since there are 1/2 more games I'm interested in available now and due to increases in accuracy etc. Just thought it was a good idea, but...

The latest AHK/module file from the downloads section (labelled for 212) seems to not work with 215, but it worked with 0170.

What do I do? Is there a AHK file that works with MAME0215 that I'm missing, or do I need to wait. If so, how long?

(I'm getting the .ahk error that means the .ahk file is out of date. I had this problem with 0170 and sorted it with the 212 .ahk file.)

For anyone coming after me who has this problem, you need to download the latest .ahk file for MAME that's in the downloads section and put it in HyperSpin\Modules\MAME.

I've solved this issue for now by rolling back a few versions - using MAME0210 with 215 roms, and it seems to be fine so far. You can download no-nag versions (removes warnings and machine info on game startup) from the downloads section.

I'm not seeing this file, and I'm pretty sure I'm having the same issue.

I'm setting up a new mame cabinet and using the latest rom set I can find and the latest version of mame and getting this same error.

I'm pretty sure there's something in the AHK that the latest mame version doesn't like.

Can anyone tell me what it is in the AHK to change or if there's a location where I can download the latest. I checked in the downloads section on this site and I'm not seeing it anywhere.

Hi. New here. 

 

I had the same error with MAME 0.234 using the 212 AHK file. Got the command line from RocketLauncherUI's log and put it in a cmd.exe window and ran the command. Found out that several switches are no longer supported. I edited the file and the .ahk started to work.

The following makes the AHK file work with mame 0.234
 

;useBezels := If (Use_Bezels = "true") ? " -use_bezels" : " -nouse_bezels"
;useOverlays := If (Use_Overlays = "true") ? " -use_overlays" : " -nouse_overlays"
;useBackdrops := If (Use_Backdrops = "true") ? " -use_backdrops" : " -nouse_backdrops"
;useCpanels := If (Use_Cpanels = "true") ? " -use_cpanels" : " -nouse_cpanels"
;useMarquees := If (Use_Marquees = "true") ? " -use_marquees" : " -nouse_marquees"
useBezels := ""
useOverlays := ""
useBackdrops := ""
useCpanels := ""
useMarquees := ""
