Flyer Fever 2023-Oct: Year 9 Part 1
In observation of Flyer Fever's 9th anniversary online, here is the first of two updates.
I recently obtained some obscure video game flyers from the Eighties, many of which I had never seen before until now.
Airwolf (1987) - Kyugo Trading Co.
Birdiy (1983) - Mama Top Corporation
Fighting Basketball (1984) - Paradise Electronics
Honey Bear (1983) - Eastern Micro Electronics
Twang (1983) - Eastern Micro Electronics
Yamato (1983) - Falcon International
Here are flyer variants for well known game titles that have different designs, backgrounds, distributor stamps or printed text.
Intrepid (1983) - Nova Games
Match Games (1982) - Merit Industries
Mikie High School Graffiti (1984) - Konami
Mouser (1983) - UPL/Cosmos

NegaMAME 0.259-1
Along with MAME and all its fork, NegaMAME 0.259-1 is also ready for download. Go grab it at https://babelsoft.net/products/negamame.htm
This MAME derivative has been designed to be used with the front-end Negatron in order to have complete access to all the machine configuration options within Negatron, especially useful for emulated computers and consoles.
This is quite irrelevant for emulated arcade games though. If you only play arcade games, you can simply use Negatron with regular MAME.
Note: 0.259-1 must be understood as the 1st version of NegaMAME synchronised with MAME v0.259. If other issues arise with this version, I would release a v0.259-2.
Note 2 : Missed the previous MAME release but 0.258-1 is now also available.

MAME 0.259
MAME 0.259
It looks like MAME 0.259 just squeaked in before the end of September! As usual, it's packed with exciting stuff. One thing we know some of you have been patiently waiting for is emulation of Namco System 12 games using the CDXA board and CD-ROM storage: Truck Kyosokyoku and the interesting but unsuccessful Um Jammer Lammy NOW! The work to support these games also puts us in a better position to support systems that use SH-2 CPUs with different combinations of onboard peripherals. Also added this month are two Konami LCD games, Bandai's two-player tabletop U-Boat game, and three arcade games on dgPix hardware.
On a completely different front, VME-based systems in MAME have had a major overhaul. The system of backplanes and cards is more faithfully reproduced. Speaking of cards, another ZXBUS storage interface card has been emulated for enhanced ZX Spectrum derivatives with a suitable slot. In other card-related news, work on PC video cards is still progressing, with the added benefit of fixing MegaTouch XL 6000 graphics this month. While we're talking about graphics, the Sharp X68000 had a few glitches fixed, too.
Initial support for built-in Ethernet has been implemented for several Macintosh Quadra systems, and some bugs in the onboard video emulation for MC68040-based Macs were fixed. Also in Apple news, the Apple III now runs at a more realistic speed, and there's been a little progress on the first-generation PowerMac family.
MAME now has support for hard-sectored floppy formats, which were a thing back in the days of big 8" drives, and a few issues with how TD0 format disk images are handled were fixed. Also related to floppy disks, the poorly-received TIB Disc Drive DD-001 that attached to the Commodore 64's cartridge port is now emulated. Finally, players curious about CPS-2 games can now twiddle the debugging DIP switches that were apparently present on development systems.
Of course, there's a lot more in this release than we can ... (Read More)

Progetto-SNAPs 0.258 Update
http://www.progettosnaps.net/MW_pics/pS_UPD.png
Ready (albeit a few days late) the MAME 0.258 update of "MAME progetto-SNAPS".
• It's available this folder on Mega.nz that allows individually download files to update from version to version. The folder will be temporarily available until the next update.
• Also in this release, but this time in the "Titles" category, there are about 21,000 png replaced to permanently delete files with identical CRC/SHA. The same operation performed also in other resource categories ("Manuals" and "VideoSnaps").
• In the "Icons" resources I removed all the icons related to the devices: they were all the same and furthermore no frontend shows them, so they are useless.
• This update does not include the "Bosses" and "Ends" snapshot categories; unfortunately the site that supported and helped me will no longer be updated (MAMEnds), so updates regarding the endings and end-of-level bosses will be more sporadic.
• This month I also update the "Artworks Alternate" category thanks to the excellent work of DarthMarino (whom I thank very much).
• The next update is scheduled for Sunday, November 19, 2023 (v0.260).
22,513 snaps and 807, icons, pictures, pdf, mp4 and zips downloadable here:

MAME Classic 9.9.4
In this version:
Added : Ability to audit all machine software instead of just the selected machine's software... per request.
Added : Ability to manually edit the string passed to the command-line for MESS systems. Useful when MAME Classic can't properly determine the string.
Changed : Again, modified the way MAME Classic determines if a machine is available to hopefully show all that will run without any files (software excluded).
Changed : Software lists are now saved to a file for quicker loading. These files refresh when a different version of MAME is detected or when you right-click a machine and select Refresh Software.
Fixed : Adding a favorite from the MESS Machine list would error. Introduced in 9.9.3.
Fixed : Changing a BIOS or Category filter and a ROMs path in Options would not update the ROMs path.
Fixed : MAME Classic would not find MESS software .chd files. Thanks to Patrick for reporting this and the extensive testing of the fix.
