GutsAndCasca Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 (edited) Okay, I guess I need to get a new version of MAME. But which one should I get and where? I've been using the french ROM site (www.planetemu.net) for years, and I can't read french well, so I'm not sure which version of mame to get. (Or "Telecharger" if you will) Romnation.net tells me to enable cookies (which I did) to get mame offa' them and it won't work. Also, while I'm at it, neither of these two sites have macross 1 and 2. Mame.dk I'd check out, but I rrrreally am wary of registering with them, and have been for years, although I have used friends logins in the past. Anyways, advice I am in need of! Thanx to everyone ----Brian Edited May 28, 2006 by GutsAndCasca Quote
JB0 Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Works here... Are you getting sound out of other MAME games? What version of MAME are you using? Quote
JB0 Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Possibly wrong MAME version. 402975[/snapback] Probably, actually. Quote
GutsAndCasca Posted May 28, 2006 Author Posted May 28, 2006 Possibly wrong MAME version. 402975[/snapback] Probably, actually. 402978[/snapback] Crap --- I'm not sure what version it is, but it IS an older one. I'd better see if there's a newer one. Also --- I know two sites where I can download Macross Plus, but can anyone help me find Macross 1 and 2??? A billion thank yous if you can!!!! Thanx! ---Brian Quote

I ran the "rechercher" function on Planetemu, and found out that macross has some other stuff (choujikuu?) written in front of it. That was my problem! As for the new version of mame, I wish I could understand the site better. Do I download a binary archive? Source code? I'm kinda' lost. Thanks once again! Quote
GutsAndCasca Posted May 28, 2006 Author Posted May 28, 2006 I also forgot to mention, it was way cool finding macross for SNES and NES. I always suspected there had to be a Macross game for them, I mean, there's Fist of the North Star. No Macross game over in Japan would be strange. Quote

Source is the actual code. It's useless without a compiler, and only really useful with some programming knowledge. Quote

Hey quick semi-off topic, which emulators are good for master system and nes? I was pretty lost with them, once when I tried to figure it out. Quote

Hey quick semi-off topic, which emulators are good for master system and nes? I was pretty lost with them, once when I tried to figure it out. 403012[/snapback] The most accurate NES emulator is Nintendulator. But it's slow(side effect of accurate emulation, sadly) and lacking in features. NESTopia is the best overall right now, if I recall. Master System... I think Kega is the best for that. I haven't kept close tabs on it. The FamiCom Macross game is really one of my favorites in the series. Just random blowing up of stuff while Shao Pai Lon plays in the background. I downloaded the binary file --- but I have no idea what to do with it once I've 7zipped it. Lost again! 403016[/snapback] I assume you mean unzipped it. It should just drop in and replace your current one. Either way, there's documentaiton inside the zip that explains everything. If you weren't using MAME, but actually using MAME32, you probably aren't very familiar with command-line applications and need a frontend. I recommend EmuLoader. http://www.mameworld.net/emuloader/ Edited May 28, 2006 by JB0 Quote
GutsAndCasca Posted May 29, 2006 Author Posted May 29, 2006 Yes, I was using Mame32. I'll get this emuloader thing and hope it helps! Thanks for all your advice. --Bri Quote
evirus Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 emuloader is just a front end, i noticed a while ago that sometimes the sounds from the game are realy low, try turning up the valume Quote
