MAME 0.219 Released!

[Tafoid]

MAME 0.219

MAME 0.219 arrives today, just in time for the end of February!  This month we’ve got another piece of Nintendo Game & Watch history – Pinball – as well as a quite a few TV games, including Dream Life Superstar, Designer’s World, Jenna Jameson’s Strip Poker, and Champiyon Pinball.  The previously-added Care Bears and Piglet’s Special Day TV games are now working, as well as the big-endian version of the MIPS Magnum R4000.  As always, the TV games vary enormously in quality, from enjoyable titles, to low-effort games based on licensed intellectual properties, to horrible bootlegs using blatantly copied assets.  If music/rhythm misery is your thing, there’s even a particularly bad dance mat game in there.

On the arcade side, there are fixes for a minor but long-standing graphical issue in Capcom’s genre-defining 1942, and also a fairly significant graphical regression in Seibu Kaihatsu’s Raiden Fighters.  Speaking of Seibu Kaihatsu, our very own Angelo Salese significantly improved the experience in Good E-Jan, and speaking of graphics fixes, cam900 fixed some corner cases in Data East’s innovative, but little-known, shoot-’em-up Boogie Wings.  Software list additions include the Commodore 64 INPUT 64 collection (courtesy of FakeShemp) and the Spanish ZX Spectrum Load’N’Run collection (added by ICEknight).  New preliminary CPU cores and disassemblers include IBM ROMP, the NEC 78K family, Samsung KS0164 and SSD Corp’s Xavix 2.

As always, you can get the source and 64-bit Windows binary packages from the download page.

Is there a place that has the new romsets with individual files accessible? It takes like 4 days to download a 65gb zip. I found one place, but one set ends at the "c's" and the other at the "g's".

I could have swore I typed 0.219 when I entered it.

Seems I cannot edit it due to the rules of the forum unless a moderator that reads this can do the 218 to 219 fix?

Thanks!

Okay, sorry. Didn't realize the old arcade games were more forbidden than others.
