MAMEWorld Forums - News - progetto-SNAPS 0.204 update!

Ready the MAME 0.204 update of "MAME progetto-SNAPS", the last of this year.
• 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.
• From today the site has a fantastic new logo created, like the previous one, by DrB. A big thanks to him!
• From this update I resumed to restore the very old snap (and I completed those of 2005) starting to redo those of 2006.
• I also started the annual quality review of my png files; I used 2 applications: the "-verify" command of ImageMagick to check "Software" and "System" TAGs of the files are present and "pngcheck" to check the integrity of the files; this is the result of the verification:

• When I have also corrected all the images of "Titles" category I will start another verification phase concerning the PNG with identical CRC (there are many).
• With this update I changed the way to draw icons; for the occasion I have redone a few dozen that didn't satisfy me.
• The next update is scheduled for Sunday January 20, 2019.
