Miss 2600 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I got an MAME downloaded and the Prof Pac-Man rom. The game comes up and I see the title screen, demo, and high scores, but I can't figure out how to start and play the game. I tried all kinds of keys but can't get it to start. I've never played a game on an MAME before. Has anyone played this game on an MAME who can help me? I'm using the one for Windows MAME 0.167 Windows command-line binaries.

BillyHW Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Press 5 to put in a quarter. Press 1 to start. Press tab to see the menu where you can change settings and controls and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss 2600 Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 Thanks for the quick response! I clicked Tab and reset some keys to make the game a little easier for me and just played a round. It's so cool to be able to play this rare game right on my laptop. Thanks again!

BillyHW Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 No problemo. You can also set up a usb gamepad in the controls.

Dauber Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 You downloaded the Professor Pac-Man MAME ROM? Okay, here's the best way to play it: 1) Click on the file you downloaded. 2) If you're on a Mac, press cmd/delete; otherwise, press delete. 3) Empty the trash/recycle bin. 4) Securely reformat your hard drive to increase the chances that your old data are unrecoverable. 5) Reinstall everything. 6) Go to your preferred non-IE web browser and block the ROM from downloading. 7) Play something else. Or DO something else. ANYTHING. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
