We\u2019re well on our way through the current development cycle, and MAME\u00a00.237 is going to have some significant changes, not just in terms of emulation, but in the user interface and debugger. Don\u2019t worry, no functionality has been removed. In fact, we\u2019ve added several features. It just might take a little while to adjust to the differences.<\/em><\/p>\n First of all, we\u2019ve added support for localised system name files, as used by front-ends like Retrofire, MxUI and MAME\u00a0Plus! Popular files include mame32j.lst (Japanese) and mame_cn.lst (Chinese). You\u2019ll be able to put your preferred system name file in the DATs (or \u201chistory\u201d) folder, and select it in MAME\u2019s UI customisation settings menu. UI localisation support is more complete, and MAME\u00a00.237 will include high-quality Chinese and Greek translations, thanks to YuiFAN and BraiNKilleRGR.<\/em><\/p>\n Mouse\/trackball navigation has been improved (you can even click DIP switches to toggle them), and the system and software selection menus have been tweaked to include more information and make better use of space.<\/em><\/p>\n Lots of debugger commands have been enhanced to work better with newer memory system features. We\u2019ve also updated and expanded the debugger documentation, both\u00a0on our web site<\/a>\u00a0and for the built-in\u00a0help<\/tt>\u00a0command.<\/em><\/p>\n If you\u2019re compiling MAME yourself, Python\u00a02.7 will no longer be supported: compiling MAME now requires Python\u00a03.2 or later (this won\u2019t affect you if you just use MAME, Python isn\u2019t required to run MAME). Most operating systems have included Python\u00a03 for years, and our\u00a0MSYS64\/MinGW build tools for Windows<\/a>\u00a0already include Python\u00a03.8 \u2013 as long as you have a\u00a0python3<\/tt>\u00a0command, you should be good to go.<\/em><\/p>\n
