MAMELOAD TNG Beta u48

EmuCR:MameUIMAMELOAD TNG Beta u48 is released. MAMELOAD TNG is a Frontend GUI for MAME. ML has pretty much all of the features that MAMELOAD had in the DOS days, but it attempts to be functional and fast with low memory usage. This program was always designed to simply be thrown in the MAME folder and executed. Since ML supports most command-line triggers - a MAME.ini is not required. It assumes you have a basic knowledge of MAME including a decent working knowledge of how to adjust your settings via MAME's command-line and .INI file.

Main Features
- Quickly determines an 'available' list (only checks to see if a ZIP or
folder exists).
- Compatability to all MAME Windows versions since it's inception.
(MAME 0.37b15 onward)
- Have the option of using other command line compatable MAME derivitives and
other MAME-based emulators! Tested builds include: MAMEUI, MAMEUI32FX,
MisfitMAME, AgeMAME, PinMAME, HAZEMD, MESS, MJOLNIR, M1, Final Burn Alpha,
Supermodel 0.2a and more!
- Full Screen and Windowed modes.
- Rotating Screen support. The screen can be orientated as normal or rotated
90, 180 or 270 degrees. This functionaity is available to Full Screen and
all windowed modes which status can be changed on the fly through
in-program input.
- Able to view .PNG extra files as well as use .PNG as a background for your
display.
- Support for up to 50 different ROMPATH directories in MAME.INI folder.
- Internal Support for viewing maintained DAT files including: MAMEINFO,
HISTORY, MARP, STORY and COMMAND.DAT files. These are all viewable at
once.
- Ability to delete CFG/INI/NVRAM file in-program for quick testing.
- Save any viewed game list or DAT file check to a file for later viewing.
- Sort any game list by GAMENAME/SETNAME/PARENT+CLONE/SOURCE.
- Type to search for a GAMENAME/SETNAME/SOURCE.
- Variable Default Font Sizes (8x8, 16x16).
- External .BDF font loading and support. (up to size 20x20)
- File Selection for MESS for any media types the system requires.
- Extended Joystick and/or Mouse list navigation.
- Nearly full Command-line support.
- Simple/Flexable interface, small in size and modest in memory usage.
- Streaming music and selection sounds while traversing and using ML TNG.

MAMELOAD TNG Beta u48 Changelog:
- Updated RESOURCE.ML appropriately for MAME and MESS current versions
(0.143u6).
- Added support for Supermodel (Model 3) emulator. Most command-line
triggers are also supported. Output-type commands (such as -list-games)
are handled like MAME and create a text file of the output for you.
- Stripped out some old code and took out a ne'er used function in an
attempt to offset the added code needed to support Supermodel. Overall,
1KB extra in binary size isn't bad. I hope to take out more unneeded
items in the future as part of a simplification effort.
- More space allocated for game level amount handled. Right now, ML TNG
can handle 25000 game entries.
- There have been reported troubles with people using ML TNG in Windows 7
and getting unknown application crashes. I suspect it might be something
related to FMOD.dll and incompatibilities with Windows 7. XP works perfectly
fine. If there is enough problem with this, I may need to drop streaming
mp3/sound support until a solution can be found.
