MAME Commander Lite
WHAT IS IT?
MC Lite is a very basic, stripped down version of MAME Commander for users that just want to add new command-line arguments to MAME on a per-game basis. If you know the ROM name, and you know what arguments you want to use, this tool is your friend.
HOW DO I USE IT?
Simple really...
- Add new games to the plugin by pressing the button
- Remove games by pressing the button
- Type the arguments you wish to use in the text box
- The status bar in the bottom shows the last ROM you ran and when it was run
- If you have MAME set up in GameEx, MAME Commander allows you to perform a search for your ROMs
- Type in the name of the ROM and you can see some data about it: Game Title, Clone Of, Driver, and Status
- You can use a wildcard (ex: tetr*) in your search and see a list of possible matches
Since the plugin will append GameEx's arguments, you can override a global switch by adding the counter switch. For example, if you were using -ka to maintain the aspect ratio, adding -noka to the plugin will force MAME to stretch the game.
