MAMEWorld Forums - News - pfeMAME version 3.5 has been released today

This is currently a Windows only release – I will get to Linux & MacOS when I get some time.

Todays release is huge. The mains ROMs list design has had a complete overhaul – I have moved away from Ultimatelistctrl due to its slow, buggy, and poorly maintained codebase and have gone with a custom design. It’s a lot faster to navigate now. The File Paths window has finally been merged into the main window as a new tab – it needs some further refinement but at least it is useable. I have also updated the menubar design to move to HTML just for flexibility and to make it look nicer (I hope). Many other code improvements and bug fixes – please check out the changelog for details.

You can download this release from here.

Please read the manual as it has everything you need.

Please report bugs. You can email [email protected] or use the features on the sourceforge site to create a ticket, leave a review, or chat.

pfeMAME is a front end for the Multiple Arcade Game Emulator (MAME) written in Python. It is cross platform (tested on Linux (Ubuntu), Windows, and MacOS). It also includes a graphical Tile View designed for MAME cabinets which allows control using joystick / gamepad. It supports favourite game flagging, MESS systems, Software Lists (for systems), per-rom input mapping, and launching of other emulation engines. It was written with a minimalist view in mind but also because there were some features that I wanted that other front ends just didn't provide.
