Re: Displaying ROM short name (MAME)

[quote="mgalaxy"] ...or use your rom folder. In that last case you will have only your available roms listed..but with the game rom name! You can then edit the xmlout file. Is it what you want? [/quote] The problem with that is, then mGalaxy appears to show all the clones of ROMs, even though I've ...

Re: PLease help - trying to configure x-arcade

Anyone?

Should I be mapping keystrokes into MAME, or joystick movements?

Re: PLease help - trying to configure x-arcade

The input end of the X-arcade is a PS/2 adapter - maybe I will try the keyboard tab then, and report findings
