MAMEWorld Forums - News - Re: Catlist 0.159 out!

> The updated category/genre/version ini files for usage with QMC2, MAMEUI and other
> frontends are finally ready, thanks to the work of Scuore and Swos
>
> http://www.progettoemma.net/
>
> As promised this new release features a re-organization of Casino and
> Electromechanical Categories...
> First of all, you can say goodbye to "Electromechanical - PinMAME" and "Fruit
> Machines": we now have
>
> Electromechanical / Coin pusher
> Electromechanical / Pinball
> Electromechanical / Reel
> Electromechanical / Utilities
> Electromechanical / Misc.
>
> Most previous Electromechanical games are now in Electromechanical / Pinball, while
> Fruit Machines have been split among Electromechanical / Reels (the ones which have
> mechanical reels) and Casino / Reels (the ones which have video reels). The Utilities
> category is for test chips for Electromechanical boards, of course...
>
> Concerning Casino category, instead, we added some Categories to better identify
> which kind of game they are
>
> Casino / Cards
> Casino / Lottery
> Casino / Racing
> Casino / Reels
> Casino / Roulette
> Casino / Multiplay
>
> Cards is not only for card-based poker games, but also for poker versions with
> guitars, cubes, cans, etc., because it's always the same game; Lottery is for all the
> various Keno, Bingo and Lotto games; Multiplay finally is for games which feature
> both card games and dice games or fruit machines
>
> Finally, we added a few more categories: Print Club (pretty much self-explanatory),
> Multi-cart Board (for those BIOS which can be launched with various carts inserted:
> Neo-Geo, ST-V and MultiTech already, and probably Playchoice-10 in a few months) and
> the categories Utilities / Update and Utilities / Test for the various Installer,
> Updater and Test boards that are emulated by MAME.
>
>
> Have fun!

Thanks again for the hard work!
