I got myself a romset that is already for mame4all, I can't help you find it because unless you own all the arcade games yourself, it would be illegal.

I think you can indeed convert roms you already own to the mame4all format but I have no idea how.

Basically, mame4all is the version that requires less CPU power than the full current mame and it is the version that is ported to all the devices that don't have the performance of a PC. It is a fork of an old 0.37 version of Mame I think.

To play neo geo games, you'll need neogeo.zip that is usually included with the romset.

Hi,

I just installed Mame4Droid on my Sensation and it doesn't work... force close of com.seleuco.mame4all

Maybe this phone isn't supported for now :cry:

EDIT : After an update today it's working !!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] orangesunshine:
latest update is SO great:filter options(scanlines yeah!),CPU cores selectable,GL settings for the graphics and it seems that many games that had stuttering sound and sound glitches are now playing the sound correctly.most games also run smoother,tested with the punisher,set video mode to GL,smoothing on,scanlines on,frameskip set to 1(auto frameskip speeds and slows the game weirdly):runs perfectly smooth! would be neat if there were cps2 support,that would be the icing on the cake.

have the xperia play. i can't get the roms to work. are they the old mame roms i can use? all the roms that i try to load say "required files are missing"

can someone help?

MK2 and MK3 still crash in the latest version.

Sigh.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] bangmang520:
This I like, thank you
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Grimlocc:
Not tried Mame on Android yet but certain roms need extra files to run, like the Neo Geo ones for example, find these:

neo-geo.rom, ng-sfix.rom, ng-lo.rom, ng-sm1.rom & neocd.bin

And stick them in the folder with your Roms. if it's roms from other systems, do a google search for 'mame missing files and whatever console you want'. Mame itself won't necessarily play the roms - it needs these extra files.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] orangesunshine:
you need an older MAME 037b5 romset,i can`t help you directly but if you google "mame4all romset" you should find something that works..
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nucklez:
Awesome emulator. I have the iOS version on my iPad also and it works great. I would like the icon to show up in the Xperia Play menu though. I tried to follow this tutorial like I did with some other emulators, but I'm unable to decompile it using the APK Manager he has in the tutorial. Have any of you tried to do this yet? I'd love to have this in my menu when I slide out the game pad.

This is the error that I get when I try to decompile it.

When I play Marvel Superheroes on CPSEmu, I can access the menu where I can change Coins to Free Play, Difficulty level, etc. But with Mame4droid I don't see this menu. Is there a specific way to open the game menu?

Edited: I found out that pressing Coins + Start at the same time does it. This really is the best emu out there. Lots of options!!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] aros2k:
I'm not asking for links but it's bloody impossible to find a rom set for the MAME apps :(
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] croakerbc:
I suggest you google "mame4droid mame 0.139 torrent"

The very first result should be an xda page. There you'll find the torrent for the entire .0139 romset.

I have been seeding for weeks now :)

BIG thanks go to the original uploader who took great pain to collect the roms for us.

Not all roms work. I'd say about 80% of them work great with the latest version of Mame4droid.

Just finished Vendetta in one go and boys it was great!!!

They have a ROM APP but thats not what I was talking about. Mame4Droid requires 0.37b5' , GP2X WIZ 0.37b11 mame romset. You can use the .DAT to convert other mame rom sets to work, but the ROM Set on R4D is GP2X WIZ 0.37b11. I have all the ROMs myself, maybe I will make a torrent ;)

That one that was uplooaded here in thread was a compete 0139 mame romset torrent and was perfect for mame4droid reloaded.

Excellent emulator!

I am just running some test with the Android MAME emulators and this is one of the best.

You can read it on my blog: http://retro-android.blogspot.com.es/
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
Hey everyone, sorry to bump an older thread but couldn't find an answer to this. Anyways, I've been a long time Tiger Arcade user but the last update pissed me off beyond belief so I tried mame4droid and was shocked to see that it handled some of my favorite games like Dodonpachi quite well with sound (on Tiger I had to leave sound off in all my games because the emulator was too slow) and was really blown away by the quality of it. My issue is that TATE mode and rotated screen mode both rotated the screen so that the picture and phone were upside down, something that isn't ideal for the gamepad setup when playing shmups in TATE on the phone (something that has changed my life since playing Raiden Legacy and seeing how well it worked as a huge shmup lover). Is there any way to rotate the phone properly? Thanks for any help anyone can give!

Is anyone else having a problem installing Newt's Inc. 2 3D? It almost completely installs, and then reboots and gets stuck in the "MikRoms" bootscreen. HELP!!:(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oxlong27:
did u give it enough time? first boot is always way longer after flashing a ROM. if u did boot into recovery wipe and flash again
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
Yeah, but it did the same thing again. I'm re-downloading and gonna flash again. I'm welcoming all other suggestions for more roms. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Taebom:
Alright, let's try to solve this. What ROM are you coming from? Did you do a full system, cache, dalvik wipe? What radio to you have? I think the current radio is 1.09.01.0622. Does your md5 match 888c72b821a250cc5c92c93ce44b4a88? Btw md5 is to make sure your download is not corrupt, a simple google search will find you a app to do this. If you are getting past the splash screen it will take around 2-6 minutes roughly to boot from the mik mik animation.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
I'm currently rooted stock. Like I gained s-off with alpharevx's tool, and then flashed clockwork and Su. And yeah, I wiped all that stuff. I tried a fresh download and got the same results. I let the boot animation go for about 5 min. I don't really have reliable access to a computer, so I can't really dl the app to compare sums.

Some Help...

I have tried Almost every rom up here since root was achieved.

I keep going back to CyanogenMod, but OMGB & TSM's Pool Party are both light weight, & Fast ASOP Roms.

Can't stand Sense in any version since I tried an ASOP Rom. I have tried a few of the sense roms to come up here, but I never stay for long. I have much better looking widgets, and am fine without it's over bloatedness

If you want SPEED, STABILITY, CUSTOMIZATION, etc. CM7 is a great choice, but in the end its your phone, Don't be afraid to try a rom for a day and see how it fits you if you don't like it go on to something else!

all of these roms have their ups and downs here are some I have tried at least once.

ASOP

*-CyanogenMod 7 for the HTC Incredible 2 Beta

*-CyanogenMod 7 Nightlys

*-OMGB 1.2.1

*-OMFGB 1.3.0 Nightlies

*-TSM PoolParty v1.3

*-MIUI WTF If I wanted an iPhone I would have bought one!

Sense

*-TSM GingerBangVanilla 1.7

*-Virtuous Unity 1.31.3 :: Sense 3.0

I also recommend a better Recovery like Amon Ra or the fixed ClockworkMod by Matt Devo that has many different color choices.

A better recovery will make your flashing life much easier since we don't have a track pad like the Incredible or the Aria and all the clicking gets old FAST!
​

Don't forget a kernel!

Better battery life and the over clock speeds are just some of the things they fix, and some will help with sound volume issues in the ASOP Roms

ASOP

Tiamat

JDkernel

Sense

It has a built in back up app and a built in themes app. And its just elegant.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] TheAtheistReverend:
I really don't get why people keep calling MIUI an i-clone. Yes, the stock icons that come on it are square-ish like iPhone, but everything else about it is not. It is solid, slick, battery-sipping, it has built in free tether (wired and wireless), and is more customizeable than any rom I have tried (or at least easier) with all the themes available.

Can't do diddley to customize an iPhone. That's why I sold mine and came to Android.

I love the MIUI if you can't tell :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
Agreed sir. Mine is far from an iPhone and is the best Rom I've ever had

I like the Zipper one. You can put a lockscreen walpaper under it and make fun effects. I have a slightly naughty pic of my wife under it and as you inzip the lockscreen it, well you get the idea.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Taebom:
I totally agree. If MIUI was an "iphone clone" Apple would have definitely sued and tried to stop the production of the MI-One phone by Xiaomi that comes shipped with MIUI on it. Like atr said, it's only the icons and layout of the home launcher that can me considered iphone-esque. If you don't like seeing all your apps then get launcherpro and walla, the android look u've come to know and love is right there with all the extra goodness that the dev's at MIUI have implemented in this great ROM. Yes cyanogenmod may have a bigger following, but the little nuances and attention to detail is impeccable. True this ROM has a few bugs if you are OCD about finding every little one, but for the average user it is well worth the title of "daily driver". But everyone has their preference and to really know what is best for you, you have to try it for yourself. I for one love MIUI and Newt's work so those are my top 2.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] TheAtheistReverend:
Y'know, I said this once back in the Eris days (oh, the good ol' Eris...) but you really gotta try them all out for yourself. OK not all of them, but you have to experiment a little.

The reason I say this is because I really think some phones actually like certain ROMs better than others. And not all phones are the same. Its almost like they have personalities. I've seen it play out in the Eris forums over the last couple years. Some people would flash certain ROMs and it would work perfectly while others would flash and reflash them and could never get them to work but consistently had great luck with other ROMs that the first group might have trouble with.

Invest some time and find what works for you. Of course using the forums for guidance but don't skimp on the time you should spend working the corner ;)
