[WarpCast] WarpCast: 10 July 1999 - Mame .35b11 released... - 7/14/99 |
Coming August 1999 -- Inet.Mail Pro 1.5 Virtual domains on a single ip address, increased performance, and more from the best mail server for OS/2. http://www.hethmon.com -- sales@hethmon.com ****************************** WarpCast ****************************** Source: Zik Zak (mta3206@osfmail.isc.rit.edu) Moderator: Dirk Terrell (admin@os2ss.com) ********************************************************************** This article was posted by someone who didn't really know what they were talking about. I just wanted to straighten some things up. It's my own fault because I didn't have enough time to post to WarpCast myself. I won't let this happen in the future. The article states: After 7 months of inactivity someone released another os/2 version of MAME (.35b11)... it's available from http://www.emux.com/cgi-bin/download/emu-download.cgi?/emufiles/mame-os235b11.zip The last one was 0.34 (quite outdated)... Firstly, I'd like to state that those 7 months of "inactivity" were the 7 months it took me to completely revamp the GUI and completely rewrite from scratch the sound routines. I was quite active, but produced no releasable results. Secondly, "someone" didn't release it. I released it. I didn't want anyone thinking that it may not be an "official" version or that it was from a different author that is not a member of the MAME development team. Thirdly, it was toted as version .35b11 in the message. I specified it as .35b11 pre-release (alpha level code). The sound system is experimental, and there are some bugs that make it less than what I would call a release. I am going to follow up on this with a real release soon, but I wanted to put something out there before any more time elapses so people don't think the project is dead. Lastly, some people out there seem to have the wrong version of a DLL needed by MAME (GPMIXER.DLL). For anyone that gets a SYS0127 (IIRC) for GPMIXER.11 or something like that, they need to grab http://www.rit.edu/~mta3206/gpmixer.zip or http://www.davesvgc.com/files/arcade/mame/emulators/gpmixer.zip The full feature list was posted to Dave's Videogame Classics on July 4th (http://www.davesvgc.com) and to the usenet group comp.os.os2.games. I will make it a point to add WarpCast to the list of sites I keep up to date in the future. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
