MAMEUI compile error

[pottzman]

Thanks robert for keeping some form of mameui going. I have only ever used mameui but I always downloaded your master branch and patched it with the "hiscore/no nag" patch. I ran into a few compile issues throughout the releases but overall it was fairly simple to do. I had managed to download you arcade 178 source and merge it with the official mame 178 source to try and compile a build with the hi score/no nag patch and I was successful however with arcade 179 I am running into familiar compile issues of the past, namely the old 'windows_x64' recipe makefile stuff. I even get the same error when i just try to compile arcade 179 without the hi score/no nag patch.

 

does anyone know how to solve these errors

[Robert]

You haven't posted the error message.

[pottzman]

yeah this is the error

 

Archiving libatari.a...

makefile:950: recipe for target 'windows_x64' failed

make: *** [windows_x64] Error 2

and then the compiling stops.

I have since downloaded your mameui-master.zip file and tried to compile that only to find similar problems using this command.

make -j12 SUBTARGET=arcade OSD=winui STRIP_SYMBOLS=1 and I get this

I also see that there is a folder inside src/osd called "winui_fx". If I wish to compile mameuifx do I replace src/osd/winui with src/osd/winui_fx or is it compiled with options such as OSD=winui_fx?

[Robert]

use OSD=messui

 

The winui target no longer works.

The winui_fx folder was a test and won't work either.

[pottzman]

okay thanks for your help however I managed to compile arcade64 .179 from muccis script here http://www.1emulation.com/forums/topic/35698-compile-script-for-arcade/ and it seems to work however everytime I try to load a rom I get this

 

[LUA ERROR] in run: plugin\boot.lua:23 stack index 1, expected

userdata, received userdata

 

and

 

[LUA ERROR] 7 loading Lua script

 

I didnt set any options in arcade64 to run any scripts/plugins so how do I fix this?

[Robert]

It's a bug in MAME. They are working on it.

[pottzman]

okay thanks Robert. love Arcade!
