It's times like this I wish I could code...sigh.
But I agree with Isaac, having a patch like this would completely
eliminate all problems with xmame compatibility between versions. (or
any other emulator for that matter) Yes, it would mean the user would
have to take a more active role in maintaining their emulator, and
xmame has a LOT of options to look after, but I can only assume that
if you're using a proper monitor (and not the crazy VGA-Component HDTV
mishmash I'm using now) it's rather easy to get xmame working to your
liking. Maybe xmame gets a few extra options, for the catver.ini for
example.
Or maybe you could add a catver.ini for every emulator. Obviosly some
of these would have to be self-maintained, but it would be extremely
handy...
I really like the idea of being able to add emulators manually, having
a list of them, each one has a command line, maybe a catver.ini, a rom
directory, screenshots directory...any other ideas? Again, I can't
really help with the coding...I could donate gmail addresses I
guess... but that seems so...September... ;-)
