How to build mame for android ?
by android studio, but where is the libraries..
-V-
Hello I'm having an issue with compiling MAME for Windows could anyone help? I have Visual Studio 2015 (With Update 3) installed. As well as msys64 installed to C:\ I followed the official instructions on the MAME Tools page for building for Windows. Anyways the problem I'm having is it will begin compiling and after about 15 minutes it throws me this error Generated 1972 opcode handlers from 523 primitives
make[1]: Leaving directory '/c/msys64/home/vanit/mame/src/devices/cpu/m6800'
c:/mysys64/home/vanit/mame/scripts/genie.lua:536: File definition for TARGET=mame SUBTARGET=mame does not exist

Any help would be appriciated
@wiired24 - you'll probably get better help either on https://github.com/mamedev/mame , on http://forums.bannister.org, or irc: freenode #mame / #mame-dev
no one really uses this anymore
Hi, I am compiling MAME for Mac and follow the procedure of this one https://github.com/mamedev/mame ; and after the compiling finished, nothing change? How can I play game as there is no app or plist appeared in my Mac ?
I tried http://forums.bannister.org//ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=58897&page=1 but the third link of step 1 is not working... and also I found this one http://docs.mamedev.org/initialsetup/compilingmame.html is difficult for me to understand... I just want to play game Orz...
Jincong: if the compiling finished successfully, there should've been a "mame64" executable created. However, MAME by itself is a command line / UNIX executable; you can double-click it but it's not entirely meant to be used that way. If you want a Mac GUI interface, you'll want to download the QMC2 frontend and use that in conjunction with the compiled MAME.
Also, as @stilett0 noted, we don't normally check this; you're better off using one of the alternate support methods he lists. Even Reddit /r/mame is checked more often.
anyone experienced with the MAME Lua engine?
how close would one rate the MAME implementation to rendering the CPS1 game in general ? close to perfect ?
does anybody know how to include an objective-c file in a cpp file?
it is needed to fix https://travis-ci.org/mamedev/mame/jobs/594946659
It shouldn't be hard to make work to some extent, but MAMEdev can't help you with it.
I've been reading the manual and forums and looking for a solution but I can't seem to do it
What platform are you compiling on? We have instructions for supported platforms at https://docs.mamedev.org/initialsetup/compilingmame.html
Morning gents. I would like to compile MAME for Windows using one driver (i.e. pacman.cpp) , and minimize the size of the compiled binary as much as possible.
Is it possible to compile MAME without using a GUI, just command line? I tried to compile it this way:
make REGENIE=1 SOURCES=src/mame/drivers/pacman.cpp PLATFORM=x64 MINGW64=/mingw64
But the size of my binary was always about 145 megabytes and I still couldn't get rid of the GUI.

@spke: Strip the binary afterwards for space reduction. You aren't going to get it much under 100 megabytes probably though. Assuming you mean the internal GUI (e.g. the menu that comes up when you press Tab) that can't be eliminated. Normally we only get that request from people making Chinese ripoff consoles, hopefully you're not one of those.
i have a problem with mame which does not recognize the cpp folder i need to do
Hi, I've only just come across MAME and i've noticed it has some code for 'ADSP-2106x SHARC Disassembler' (https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/master/src/devices/cpu/sharc/sharcdsm.cpp)
I'm currently in the process of reverse engineering a thermal camera which makes use of an ADSP-2106x.
I've determined that the ADSP boots off an external flash, and i've since desoldered it and taken an image.
Can MAME somehow take my dumped flash contents and run it somehow? (i assume the answer is yes...) I've had a look at the documentation but nothing stands out at me. Could someone please point me in the right direction?
Hi does anyone know if it's possible to create MAME bezel overlays with layouts where you could have instruction cards that could be changed/toggle in game via a user interface key combo? E.g https://youtu.be/QeK8Imu4eiI?t=400. The type of cards are one like here https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/194hszpMtQBUKWEyx3Ph4YoJLPXRkUYkg. I've read https://docs.mamedev.org/techspecs/layout_script.html and can't see any obvious ways to do this.
@fsync-io Yes, MAME can run (and debug) arbitrary ADSP-2106x SHARC code. It's possible depending on the specific model in your camera that it has additional instructions that we don't currently support. You would need to create a driver; that's kind of an important hole in our documentation right now. Alternatively, send your flash dump as instructed here: https://wiki.mamedev.org/index.php?title=Submitting_Source_Code and we can add it so you'll be able to debug it.
@palmerj That's not possible to my knowledge, although enough of the component pieces are there that it probably could be made possible. That's more of a @cuavas thing though, hopefully he can chime in.
I wanted to know if MAME could qork with GGPO client instead of kaillera client to have lesser frame delays for big pings?
