MAME

mame

MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Motorcar Emulator. MAME can emulate thousands of games that otherwise would have been lost in the ash-heaps of history.

See Also: FinalBurn-Neo, Neo Geo

At that place are a variety of arcade emulator versions available in RetroPie. At that place are significant differences in functioning, compatibility, and configuration betwixt them. If you're getting started with an arcade emulation projection, begin past reading the Arcade page.

This page is a resource for additional details on RetroPie'south MAME emulators including configuration paths, controls, and the ROM sets which each emulator requires.

MAME ROM paths

Three of the available MAME ROM paths in RetroPie are shared directories which are used past more than than i emulator: arcade, mame-libretro, mame-advmame. In gild to successfully load zipped ROM sets in these locations you must specify the arcade emulator version which matches your ROMs.

To avoid having several menus for different arcade emulators, all arcade-based ROMs can be placed in the arcade ROM folder, simply you lot will have to specify which emulator each zipped ROM set up will use from the Runcommand Bill of fare.

lr-mame2003-plus (MAME 2003-Plus)

MAME 2003-Plus (as well referred to equally MAME 2003+ and mame2003-plus) is a libretro arcade organization emulator core with an emphasis on high performance and broad compatibility with mobile devices, single board computers, embedded systems, and like platforms.

In order to take advantage of the operation and lower hardware requirements of an earlier MAME architecture, MAME 2003-Plus began with the MAME 2003 codebase, which is itself derived from xmame 0.78. Upon that base, MAME 2003-Plus contributors accept back-ported support for several hundred additional games likewise as other functionality not originally present in MAME 0.78.

Please see the libretro MAME 2003-Plus cadre documentation for information on how to configure specific features of this emulator.

Some notes well-nigh extra controls options and configuration available in MAME 2003-Plus:

  • MAME 2003-Plus can utilize different RetroPad layouts, chosen with the Device Type configuration option in the Controls menu in RetroArch:
    • Classic Gamepad, based on mainline MAME'south default Xbox 360 controller layout, probable to suit DualShock or SNES-style gamepads.
    • Modern Fightstick, a fight stick and pad layout popularised by Street Fighter IV and assumes an viii+ push controller.
    • half dozen-Button, a layout intended for SNES-type RetroPad controls besides as vi-button arcade panels arcade panels.
    • 8-Button, a layout intended for an arcade panel (viii buttons)
  • MAME 2003-Plus maps the analog controls to joystick control by default, instead of the D-Pad. This can be changed from the Cadre Options, switching the Control mapping choice to digital.
  • MAME 2003-Plus disables the MAME carte past default (usually mapped to Tab). It can be enabled by irresolute the Input interface Core Option to simultaneous.

Note : The .rc file tin also be edited manually, with a text editor. Any config can be fabricated ROM-specific using a romname/ prefix which is handy for overriding a setting for a specific ROM or class of ROMs, such as vertical/. However, a single mistake in the .rc file will finish AdvanceMAME from launching. It is always best to brand a backup of the configuration file before manual edits.

MAME Version: MAME has monthly versioned releases, in that location is no single version. Version 0.221 was released for May 2020, 0.222 for June 2020, etc.
Installing from binary will probably get a version that'due south a little behind the current MAME, installing from source will always go the latest monthly release.

Note : installing from source requires a lot of RAM and CPU ability, on Pi3 and lower cease systems could have more than than one day - apply the binary release when available, instead of installing from source.

MAME Dat Files: ProgettoSnaps MAME .dat folio has versions for each MAME release.

Controls

While in a game, printing Tab to open up the MAME menu, and so choose the Input configuration. MAME controls configuration is saved in /dwelling/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame/cfg :

  • default/full general input configuration file is default.cfg
  • per-game configurations are saved in <romname>.cfg

MAME Version: Similar to MAME, lr-mame follows the monthtly MAME releases, so at that place is no single version. Installing from binary will probably become a version that's a little behind the electric current MAME, just the upstream Libretro repository tries to keep up with MAME's monthly releases, so installing from source

NOTE : installing from source requires a lot of RAM and CPU power, on Pi3 and lower stop systems could take more than than a day. Employ the binary release when available.
