I have finally managed to update the website to latest MAME release.
http://www.progettoemma.net/
I know many of you had lost hopes, but the long wait was motivated: the merge of MESS systems in MAME (in 0.162) meant that game pages had to be redesigned so to allow listing optional hardware which is available to emulated systems through slot options.
Who does not understand fully what I'm talking about shall probably go reading the few posts I had made on my emulation blog on the subject here and here. Long story short home systems don't come in fixed hardware configurations like arcade cabinets and can be expanded / modified widely, both in terms of hardware expansions and in terms of input controllers: slot options in the MAME core aim to emulate such great flexibility!
Despite my previous experience with these options in ProjectMESS, it took quite some time to integrate such options in our page design.
Anyway, we are back and we are here to stay!
(In a few days, we will also have a new release of the official catver ini, with many new categories to better sort the various systems and cabinets supported by latest MAME)
