I have down loaded the new compiling tools, the mame source zip file and read the instructions on mamedev. Im up to the point according to mamedev, i downloaded the source zip file but mamedev stops there, do i unzip it into the buildtools folder also ? And do i still the mingw tools too ? If so do i need to point the buildtools folder to the mingw folder ?
I tried unzipping mame source into buildtools folder then bringing up the cmder.exeand typping make and enter and it returns nothing to make, type make mame, nothing type make -j3 again nothing, tryied several different make *file names* and nothing
So i download new tools, create folder build tools in c: drive, download mame.zip file, then whats next ? Is the mingw folder and tools now obsolete and no longer needed ? I dont have internet access on my main mame computer so my mame downloads are done on work computer during lunch then later tranfered to my home computer so i dont have direct access.
Any help.would greatly be appreciated !!

Open a command prompt where buildtools.bat is. Type... buildtools.bat If you want 32 bit, type... bin\config32.bat If you want 64-bit, type... bin\config64.bat Now CD to where makefile is and do your make command.. make -j3 again

I took the easy way and simply downloaded the install.exe changing the drive letter from C:\ to J:\
J:\buildtools
Can you try D:\buildtools and see if it works?

thanks for the suggestion, David.
but if the tools don't work from custom location, i just skip them.

Open a command prompt where buildtools.bat resides and run it first. Then From the same command prompt, navigate to makefile. Now run your make command.

That error typically indicates a 32/64 bit mismatch. Try make clean and then do the make all again without the PTR64=1 (to build a 32-bit MAME).

RB, thanks a lot for the hint that it was 32/64 bit mismatch!! what i did:
i just removed 32-bit bin paths from environment variables, rebooted the system and voila - everything compiled fine.
