sbpaabck Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Hah, yeah, good luck with that. There's been a bunch of people (including myself) who wanted to know what additional arcade games had been added from X to Y, but all they got in reply was "compare the gamelists - too many to remember". I actually did this at one point. i.e. compared Epic R6 to R8.Here was the list of "too many to remember": aceattacadesertbrgprider1MI_AMI_BMI_CMI_DMI_Eplegendsracherosnowbros3sonicbom Basically, if you want to know what additional games have been added over a given earlier version, you need to run a database comparison against the gamelist files IN EVERY VERSION. Yes, that is what you're expected to do. Download every version, and compare all of their gamelist files. Seriously. Ugh, just be thankful that person doesn't ruin I mean reside in this forum anymore! much better without him i'd say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ T + Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) I think that the term 'added games' as CoinOPS uses it is (deliberately?) rather misleading. CoinOPS is intended to be a package complete with roms so when arcade games are described as 'added' it simply means that roms have been added to package, not that support for any new games has been coded into the emulators.

However the MAME driver should be easy enough to add to CoinOPS, it may not even require any changes I'm not sure it's been a long time since I did any work with MAMEoX drivers.
