Best and Easiest Frontend?
#293865 - 08/15/12 11:32 AM


Hi, quick question, what do guys think is the best frontend for looks and usability that's easy to setup? Gonna be using the latest MAME build with Windows 7 64-bit

Easiest to setup,most feature rich,actively developed with a super cool author that actually listens to what people want=QMC2

A little harder to setup,but worth it for the eye candy,if you like that sort of thing.Also once it is setup,it runs wonderfully=Hyperspin

Personally I use both.Hyperspin on the cab & QMC2 on the PC

As I've said before, both looks and ease-of-use are highly personal things. Try out different frontends for yourself and see what you like. (For skinnable FEs, don't forget to try some of the non-default skins).

i tried a few, easiest i found was Mala, could draw my background came with an intuative editor for moving menu`s/ snapshots and make lists enough extras bits and bobs i hadnt thought about and boots at start up , everyone seems to try and make thier set up complicated this was great for what i wanted, worth looking at from my experience

Yes that's what I use always. Hyperspin's nice also but I'm just gonna wait for hyperspin 2.0 to come out.
