![]() Update comebaby.c with Guru's notes and add BIOS dump. (nw) Here's hoping the changes I made to the memory region and ROM definitions work, I'm new to this... If it helps, requirements for the actual PC Windows port: - Operating System: Windows 98 / Me / 2000 / XP - CPU: Pentium III 350 or higher required, Pentium / Celeron 500MHz recommended - RAM: 64M - CD-ROM: 24-32x speed - Hard Drive: 400M - Sound Card: Sound Blaster / DirectX compatible sound card - Video Card: DirectX 8.0a compatible graphics card required, Direct3D support card (6M or more texture memory) required which also implies a 3dfx Voodoo 3 or better, matching the previous notes on the HDD contents. |

What is MAME?
MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator.
MAME's purpose is to preserve decades of video-game history. As gaming technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents these important "vintage" games from being lost and forgotten. This is achieved by documenting the hardware and how it functions. The source code to MAME serves as this documentation. The fact that the games are playable serves primarily to validate the accuracy of the documentation (how else can you prove that you have recreated the hardware faithfully?).
What is MESS?
MESS (Multi Emulator Super System) is the sister project of MAME. MESS documents the hardware for a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game consoles, and calculators, as MAME does for arcade games.
The MESS and MAME projects live in the same source repository and share much of the same code, but are different build targets.
How to compile?
If you're on a *nix system, it could be as easy as typing
make
for a MAME build, or
make TARGET=mess
for a MESS build (provided you have all the prerequisites).
For Windows users, we provide a ready-made build environment based on MinGW-w64. Visual Studio builds are also possible.
Where can I find out more?
- Official MAME Development Team Site (includes binary downloads for MAME and MESS, wiki, forums, and more)
- Official MESS Wiki
- MAME Testers (official bug tracker for MAME and MESS)
