dec1962 Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Hi, Just wondered if anyone was working on MPU3 for MAME ? I've a fix which solves the lockup on power up with TURN-ON-DELAY on the alpha and didn't want to start messing if someone else was already doing stuff with it. I can't do a PR for a while anyway as I'm waiting for another PR to be merged. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altharic Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 I doubt it last one to do anything with mpu3 if I recall was Haze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dec1962 Posted January 10 Author Report Share Posted January 10 OK, I'll keep the changes and wait for them to merge my current PR. I guess not much interest in MPU3 in MAME, or FME in general in MAME at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so @johnparker007 has an arcade simulator and the plan is to use mame as the basis for the backend sadly I think illness has been a stumbling block for updates for it he did some fixes for m1a the other month I also follow anything I can see in the PRs for mame and record them in the thread below I'd love to see more FME in MAME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some (non PR'd) FME fixes too, but I've been a bit under the weather for a few months now, so my progress has kinda stalled until I feel a bit more in the zone again I have another Maygay sound fix for another sound chip, but it's in progress from last year (will fix some looping issues and softlocks on M1A/B): I have some other projects on the go also, but I'd been tinkering with MAME as it's the new emulation backend for 'Oasis': Here's Oasis running a 'classic' layout, which will later be exportable to create MAME built in (to the MAME.exe) text only layouts, it is using a MAME.exe process in the background to run the emulation: It also does graphical layouts, so that the new version of 'Arcade Simulator' will use MAME.exe for its emulation backend rather than MFME.exe. Here's a demo of the original version of Arcade Simulator: So I do have a couple of irons in the emulation fire, just been unwell so had to take a step back for a bit. So I am super interested to see more work going into MPU3 (or any of the reel-based FME drivers!) - thanks for your work so far!
