PinballX and MAME on a PinCab

[Les73gtx]

I am still getting the noobism out of me and my system so be gentle ...

I see there is a mame.ini already in the PinballX setup and I was thinking it would be cool to have a few games that I could put on my PinCab that would be easy to control with my button setup (dual flipper buttons) Donkey Kong and Galaga come to mind.

Is there a guide to setting this up if I do not have GameEX installed or any mame installed for that matter. Just thought it would be cool if I could do a little shooting and jumping in between playing Vpinball.

Thanks for your time

Man I did it again didn't I .... didn't think to look there as I used it for setting up pinball and I guess I did not pay attention to the mame part.

Thank you

No sweat! Let us know how it goes! MAME on a cab is pretty cool. I need to get a stick set up on mine so I can play more than Space Invaders, Galaxian, Galaga, and Mappy.

So I did get it setup and running and it seems to work fine. It seem to take a few reboots to get the flipper buttons mapped properly. Obtaining the resources is not as easy as VP is that is for sure. Thanks for the help
