How to hide available games in mame

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.mame (More info?)

Hi,

I would like to display in MAME only the unavailables (the games I don't have in the chosen
directories).
I guess this question has been asked before, I didn't find any answer yet.
Thanks for your help.

1st of all...you're talking about MAME32, not MAME.
2nd of all...You can't show unavailable ones in MAME32/MAME.
3rd of all...You can show them in ClrMamePro.

1 My ISP doesn't offer me any newsgroup that contains 'mame32' occurrence.
2 I'm very surprised mame32 doesn't allow to filter available.
3 Thank you for your help.

1 Thats because there isnt a newsgroup specifically for MAME32. MAME32 is
a offshoot of MAME that adds a GUI.
2 Not many people have wanted such a thing
3 Thats what we're here for

You mean a personal compiled version of the mame for windows 32bits?
I wouldn't have started this thread if I began to learn how to do this

Tu voulais pas écrire "how" ?
Afficher uniquement les roms non disponibles dans Mame32, savoir celles qui te manquent. Dans
Mame32 on ne peut que cacher celles que l'on ne possède pas.

Do you want to see screenshots that prove it?
Why did you did you include a Trojan in it anyway?

Yup. You cannot clean a compromized system to get it trustworthy
again. If you are infected --> format C:.

If you don't believe me, believe Microsoft:

That's "tolerated" spyware. Either people tolerate it, or just don't know
about it.

1. Though you might look hard
2. No "Unavailables" shown.
3. MAME doesn't do that

He only wrote clrmamepro is on the detected list not that it contains malicious code.
If he tells it why don't you just think he uses one of these anti spyware and tested it.
most important, everyone doesn't care about them since only a few people know these apps by
contrast with spybot & adaware.

what were you thinking about when you wrote we should be able to?
Is it that you would like this feature too or an advice to add by your own the option and the
checkbox ?

Yet if you actually did run it you wouldnt be able to "....... show them
in ClrMamePro." as it would delete it by default.

They probably don't have any idea where to get it from. Google searching
is just to hard for them to figure out.

I like to know if there are possible trojans on my machine so there goes
your everyone doesn't care theory.
Just because Spybot and Adware don't detect it doesn't mean it doesn't
contain the threats. Spybot and AdAware may not work properly... A trojan
may have been specifically coded not to show up in their scans.

By Contrast More people know MS Windows XP too, it by default has built
in spyware, Spybot and Adaware doesn't detect \ can't remove either...

Its something not commonly used so it'd be just more work for the MAMEdevs
to do without any need (OG is a MAMEdev)

still looking for removing msn and xerox folders from program files ?

Did you identify yet the precise spying activity from clrmamepro ?

Great work. I like this useful utility. I'm discovering it.

Actually.... the reason there is no "unavailable" folder in MAME32 is
because it's considered a lamer magnet, ie. it supports PokeRom attitudes
where people can see exactly which ROMs they're still missing.
I'm not saying I necessarily agree with that point of view, but it's what
I've heard.

Anyway, if you can figure out how to compile MAME32 for yourself then you
can edit layout.c and add a "#define LAMER". This used to work, not sure if
it still does.

Hope this helps...
Mike

If you really want to see unavailable ones, just do a scan.
