MAME4ALL


Kech, has once again updated his port of MAME4ALL for the PSP to v0.0.3 with the aid of Sazuke2911, Chui and Franxis. MAME4ALL is an emulation of arcade video games, allowing you to play all those favourites from yesteryear. So if you're one of those who value old-school, of if you're a young 'un who wants to see how cool the games back then were, give this one a go.

This latest version contains the following updates:
  • Added - full screen only in 'HW Scale' Option (does not work for all the games)
  • Added - analog control
  • Added - further support for ROMS
  • Bug Fix - The memory that impeded the regeneration and left sectors of the ROMS without cleaning
  • other misc small bug fixes
UPDATE: The file for the 2.xx PSPs should be ok now.

Can any of the street fighters be played with this at decent speeds?

# @ #2Guest 2006-06-22 20:06
The previous version only allowed mid-80ies games to be played at full speed (e.g. ghouls n ghosts). Final Fight / Punisher (= Street Fighter hardware) was really slow.

Does any of the Metal Slug Games work, and if they do, do they run at a decent speed?



Methinks there is a tad too much slowdown with the neo geod cdz emulator :P

# Compatibility List?Guest 2006-06-22 21:30
Does anyone know where there is a compatibility list of some sort?



Also, to #5, I'd be looking at the Neo Geo arcade emulator for MS compatibility, but thats just me.

# I second #6Guest 2006-06-22 21:40
The Simpsons arcade game, by Konami, was the BEST 2d arcade game at my local arcade. I REALLY hope this works at full speed/sound soon, or ...ever for that matter.

# (IMPORTANT) NOT WORKING on 2.5 - howto get a working versionxiringu 2006-06-23 00:45
I've tried the version in this web and it doesn't seem to work.



I've tried changing the names of the folders, etc and I couldn't.



BUT I downloaded another version from another web and it worked!!!



this is a link to a file 0.0.3 that REALLY works on FW2.5



(web is in spanish)

http://beta.pesepe.com/index.php?q=system/files&file=Mame4all2xxv003.rar





(note to admin)

please, change the file for the 2.XX version :)

# Should be ok now.Guest 2006-06-23 01:26
For some reason, the file from the source for 2.xx users is corrupted. A new file has been put up and it should be ok now (just check the download link in the post). Thanks for calling our attention xiringu. :)

# ok releaseGuest 2006-06-23 08:38
Ok release, minor improvements, but some minor cuts like the display resolution of CPS-1 games which appears to be cut on both sides of the screen.



Btw, any CPS-2 game is not supported by MAME4ALL, only CPS-1. Xmen vs SF and any of the SF Alpha games are CPS-2. Even SF2 does not work currently.

# :-\Guest 2006-06-23 10:52
Marvel vs. Capcom is a CPS-2 ROM, which, according to #24, means no, it will not run. Maybe in the distant future, but for now, no.

# correct rom setGuest 2006-06-23 11:41
make sure you download the romset (around .36-.38) that jives with the mameforall gpx release.. if your'e trying to use new mame roms complied for the latest mame release, youll be out of luck.

# Shinobi working (#33) ???Guest 2006-06-28 12:59
I can't get any of the Shinobi sets working... I wish it would though.



Any Sega system16 games working?

Space Harrier, Shinobi, Outrun, Thunderblade would all be great!



If he can add driver support for System16, Nintendo, Namco, taito & Neo-Geo this would be the best PSP Emulator HANDS DOWN!!!

# CPS1 gamesGuest 2006-07-02 20:27
Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, Warriors of Fate and Punisher runs fine. Although there's no sound and the left and right edges of the screen are cropped; but the speed is playable.

# Needs more WorkGuest 2006-10-12 14:37
I applaud the effort, but against polished EMUs like NJ's CPS ones, this one sucks. The compatibility is poor and the performance average, even on old old titles. I tried games like Green Beret which ran like crap under this EMU.



I applaud the effort put in so far, don't get me wrong, but this EMU has a long way to go before it'll stand toe to toe with NJ's work which makes much more recent Arcade games run super slick.
