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The last one was 0.34 (quite outdated)...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.
