MAMEUI64 0.281.0 has been released. Available at https://messui.1emulation.com There's almost 2000 games that crash/freeze MAME at start. Most of these have been patched to stop the crash, but there's 6 left. These have been removed. They are: hmxpro,imac,thinkpad850,wto2840sp,sun_s10,sun_s20.

I'm having second thoughts on this idea, for the same reason that HBMAME is still at 0.245, so sorry to alarm you all. You can still give your opinions though. Also, the forum performance is horribly slow, possibly due to the rampant bots that seem to be infesting many other forums, as they harvest everyone's input for their own nefarious use. So, sorry about that. It might be that we'll have to restrict guest access entirely. We'll see.

I'm having thoughts on adding the HBMAME romset to ARCADE64, with the eventual aim of closing down HBMAME. It will be a very slow process, taking more than a year. But first, I want your thoughts on this idea. Good? Bad? Don't care?

Not that I recall. About 2 years ago someone said they were able to compile it for Linux. Have you tried?

I've never used anything by Apple, there's no support for them. Also, I've never used Unix/Linux in any of its forms. 100% not interested either. So, can't help you with that, at all.

If it's happening with MAME then you'd have to ask the developers. That having been said, I asked one of them to check and they said there was nothing wrong. However if you made the savestate with 0.279 and then you're trying to load it into 0.280, then they have no support for using a savestate between versions. In that case then it's just bad luck.

What happens with standard MAME 0.280 ?

MAMEUI64 0.280.0 has been released. Available at https://messui.1emulation.com References to "SW Files" have been changed to "Loose SW", which is the more commonly known name.

I don't have a joystick or controller, so the functionality has never been tested. I don't know what the numbers mean either. But maybe someone else here knows more.

No. Any version of MAME can produce a dump. A debug build switches on various internal checks, such as "assert".

Most people don't need it. See: Basically, if it crashes you can get symbols (where it crashed) instead of numbers in the crash dump.

These things are no longer possible with compiler versions after 10.1 . However you can indent clones with View -> Indent Clones.
