Actually, since MAME is open source, EMU+ is basically the MAME source with a few tweaks puty in and recompiled. There are a ton of different MAME builds out there, like Advanced MAME, the P2-P3 optimized version, EMU+, etc. Just go to the mame page at vintagegaming.com and get whatever versions ya need. Just use them as replacements for your regular MAME exe file and yer mostly set.
: Thanks Chris (Fultra) and rosborn for their help. You guys mentioned that I need to use Opti-MAME to get player one spinner on mouse x-axis and player two spinner on y-axis. But, I'm a little lost. What IS Opti-MAME? Is it a completely different version of MAME, or is it like an ADD-on, or is it a front-end? And how DO I find it, because you're right...I think the site is gone. I found EMU+, it says that it uses Opti-MAME for spinner control, but again...what's EMU+, a whole separate emulator, a whole new front end, an add-on? I really want to use MAME for my emulator, and ArcadeOS for the front-end, is it possible to use those two and get two spinners running on each mouse axis, and if so...WHERE can I find the stuff to do it? Thanks again.
