[PLUGIN] MAME Commander Lite

[Adultery]

MAME Commander Lite

Current version: 1.0.2

---

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.

Really cool! Thanks for this Adultery. You have a way of always anticipating and providing valuable functionality to users. Just Awesome.

* This plugin is in no way affiliated with MC Lyte ... or is it? It is isn't it you sly dog!

I Approve.

Updated to 1.0.1:

Added Debug Mode logging. When enabled, the plugin will generate a log file while GameEx is running to help diagnose any problems one has with their command lines.

@Null:

The funny thing is I really debated putting in a disclaimer:
*This plugin is in no way affiliated with the female rapper.

I decided against it because I didn't think anyone would get the joke.

[Tempest]

So basically you think we are all morons.

[Adultery]

Or more like no one here shares my extremely crappy taste in music!

Oh you mean... LOL!
Nah, I figure the "advanced users" don't need all the extra crap.

[Tempest]

Sorry, I should have quoted the post to which I was referring.

Well, not all of you... lol!

[Draco1962]

I don't get it...

[Adultery]

That sounds like a personal problem Drac!

But you know what they say. Nothing sucks the sex life out of a relationship like the taste of wedding cake.
