correction:
the USB (and maybe even HD) install *OF* advanceCD actually boots freeDOS before loading the linux environment.
you can still boot usbdisks even if there is no bios support for it using the plop boot manager. however, you still need a working HD on the pc to use plop.

the USB (and maybe even HD) install if advanceCD actually boots freeDOS before loading the linux environment. here is a rough method on how to get ADVCD to the laptop HD (C:\). windows is needed in the beginning for file management and hardware testing.
1. install win9x with fat32 to the laptop. make sure everything works fine, usbdisk is readable for transferring files
2. edit MSDOS.SYS...

I've been trying to run Advance from an old compact flash card with an adapter in the hard drive and I get this error. It looks like what [b]davydee[/b] says is coming true: for some reason the computer lists the flash card as a floppy drive, and advance doesn't look at the floppy drives. If anyone knows how to help, I'd be much obliged.
More info: I am trying to run Advance on an old...

advpng tries to open temp file which is same name as file to operate on, except with .tmp extension. If given foo.tmp file, it tries to use same file for reading and writing at the same time.
It might be safer to append .tmp instead or refuse to operate on .tmp files.
(it might sound like crazy corner-case, but I've actually ran into that bug when developing ImageOptim)

Hello,
I've found the following code that looks like incorrect:
file advancemame-0.106.1/advance/osd/input.c
Function static void input_setup_init(struct advance_input_context* context)
1972 memset(&context->state.key_old, sizeof(context->state.key_old), 0);
1973 memset(&context->state.key_current, sizeof(context->state.key_current), 0);
1974
should be memset(..,0...

Hi:
I see that those are slackware versions. I was hoping to create standard deb files for Ubuntu and Debian as well as RPM files for Red Hat. Of course I might be looking at this site incorrectly.
Thanks
Battlecat.

the sources available here at sourceforge needs to be compiled.
there are compiled versions at:
http://slackfind.net/en/
search for "advancemame" and "advancemenu". choose your version. convert.

Hi:
You can add this line to your advmame.rc file and it will make any game that is capable of cocktail mode use cocktail mode:
> input_dipswitch[cabinet] cocktail
Or you can set the cabinet mode on a per game basis by adding the following to the advmame.rc file where "rom" is the filename of the rom you are trying to run.
> rom/input_dipswitch[cabinet] cocktail
Good Luck...

Hello:
I am looking for help in converting the source of Advanced MAME 0.106.1 into a distributable RPM and DEB file. I have been trying for some time now to do this but with no real luck. I am not a programmer by trade so please use English for non-programmers when responding.
Has it already been done? If so where at? I know that in the Distribution I use (Ubuntu 9.04) it is not listed...

This supersedes the "make partitions end on a cylinder boundary" patch that I submitted previously. The change is that, if you have a disk that is large enough to require FAT32, but you have only specified a FAT16 boot sector image, then I want makebootfat to partition only a portion of the disk, and format it as FAT16. I have implemented a similar case for FAT12, but I have done no testing...
