Games that require artwork and/or clickable artwork (-listxml)
#375249 - 03/31/18 02:43 AM


hi all,
is there a way to know what games require extra artwork and games that require extra clickable artwork from -listxml output ?
If not, were can I extract this info from, excluding the source code ?

Discs of Tron (dotron) require an artwork but this info is nowhere in -listxml output or any other list MAME can generate using mame64.exe.

Perhaps this info could be added to the -listxml output ?
artwork required
clickable artwork required

Those flags are a bodge already and don't necessarily mean what you think they do. REQUIRES_ARTWORK is really just a hint that if you disable bezels, overlays, etc. you might not be able to use the system. REQUIRES_CLICKABLE_ARTWORK is a hint to the MAME core to disable mouse capture in windowed mode and display a pointer during emulation in full-screen mode. I'm not sure exposing them in their current form is a great idea.

Ok, thanks for the info.
Games do work without the artwork.
