I used it on the Nanocade and I think I will use it again. Reminds me of MameWah, only much better looking and it actually works with Windows 7. Doesn't work very well with Windows 7 though. Looks fantastisk though. Cade Probably the best Apple front-end. It's free and based on the PC variant called MameWah. Ultrastyle Only MAME, maybe a tad outdated ; I try to update this list frequently, drop me a mail if you think something is missing.
Good if you are using an arcademonitor and good old DOS. Can be configured to any emulator and application. Cabrio FE. That is useful info. I went back to 0. I also switched dial input from keyboard to mouse. Everything started out okay and I could set all my inputs just fine. It recognized all the wheels and the multiple mouse buttons used for start and coin so I know it works but it soon stopped working properly and I couldn't coin up or play. I will look at it again tomorrow.
Once thing is for certain - if I can get a newer version to work I would like to because it looks like they have done some real nice updates to the roms. I don't remember the PC lagging on these games while running. I appreciate all the help so far.
This will get cracked soon. I've been running Mame. I'm pretty sure I didn't install anything unusual. GameEx is considered to be the most powerful, stable and feature rich gaming front-end emulator launcher for MAME, GameBase, Daphne, PC Games and all command line based game emulators, along with being a complete Home Theatre PC solution or plug in for windows media center. GameEx is available as a free or enhanced registered version. GameEx was created in and has been in active development ever since.
It started life as an arcade only emulator front end for arcade cabinets and HTPC setups. Since then it has grown phenomenally and now supports all retro game systems, online game services Steam, UPlay, Origin and boasts many of its own HTPC features.
Then there is the next evolution of GameEx, GameEx Evolution, built from the ground up using what we have learnt from the past 13 years to build the next generation of emulation front ends. Like digital Pinball?
We are also the authors of the leading virtual pinball front end, PinballX. GameEx Online Experience interaction. Community Get involved and join our vibrant community. Stop if this sounds familiar. For the longest time, I thought Hyperspin was the bees knees of emulator front ends. When I first discovered it back in , it looked out of this world.
The idea of a full menu system that loaded all your games with pretty graphics, video previews and box art — it was some next level shit.
Fast forward 6 or so years later, and I hateeeee using HyperSpin. Time where now days is probably better spent actually playing games, than looking at a menu screen with a rom list.
HyperSpin major or core updates have been far and few between, so while development stalled for a bit, the community stepped in and developed a whole bunch of third-party tools to help get your setup going.
HyperSpin sure looks nice, but to get an all working config the way you want it, is soul crushing. At the end of the day, a front end is a list of games that looks pretty, that you can launch roms from. The more time I started putting into HyperSpin, the more it dawned on me — why is this complicated?
My setup would only have arcade games and select console games. I never really got why people put every emulator under the sun on their arcade machine. From all the 30, games MAME has, people only play maybe a fraction. So based on my past experience of setting up HyperSpin, that was off the table. I made myself a hit list of things I wanted out of my next front end. This was what I came up with:.
Give it a directory full of roms and it will automatically generate a list, and automatically download images! It also has a ton of templates and import configurations for all the major emulators which makes setting up a breeze. The developers are also constantly updating LB with new features and their documentation is great. If I was running a mega rom collection on my arcade machine, I think it would be the clear winner especially with its rom management, but it was still a bit too, I guess heavy for what I needed it to do.
So once my experimentation with LaunchBox ended, I started searching to see who the usual suspects were when it came to front end business. If there was something promising, it was most likely behind a pay wall and that immediately was crossed out.
I then came across Big Blue. Big Blue is a free open source Windows based front end which fit the bill, almost to a tee. A one man project made by someone who had similar frustrations when it came to usability and features in an emulator front end, it seemed to address all the issues I had.
