QMC2 v0.52

QMC2 v0.52 is compiled. QMC2 is a good GUI for MAME & MESS. QMC2(M.A.M.E. Catalog / Launcher II) is the successor of one of the first XMAME/MESS GUI frontends available, QMamecat (derived from MAMECAT, which was text-only). QMC2 has been rebuilt from scratch as a Qt 4 project. Parts of the design and code were inspired by its predecessor. The new design was made as flexible as possible to minimize dependencies from frontend- and CLI-related MAME changes, which was a major deficiency of QMamecat. QMC2 uses a template-based MAME configuration scheme, which can easily be enhanced with additional command line options (defined in an XML template file).

QMC2 v0.52 Changelog:
fix: corrected visibility switching of the ROM state filter menu (related to the detail-setup overhaul in 0.50)
fix: DAT-info database: corrected file modification checking to also work on Windows
imp: unified all main GUI variants into one: qmc2-(sdl)mame (because of the unification in MAME) – as a result, you only have to build one binary now and the EMULATOR option as well as variant switching have been removed
imp: updated category.ini contributed by ASH to MAME 0.162
imp: ROMAlyzer: removed the extra frame around the scanner status and centered it vertically
imp: when the emulator binary cannot be identified as MAME this will no longer stop game list processing, instead QMC2 will log a warning and try to continue as if it were MAME (note: bad things can happen if this is not the case!)
imp: added new software notes-template macro $SOFTWARE_PARENT_ID$ (bug tracker ID #105)
imp: updated the alternative system- and software-notes templates contributed by José Marcio Rezende Franco
imp: category view: BIOS and device sets that aren’t available in catver.ini and/or category.ini will now still be inserted as sub-items of their respective categories when the view is created
imp: system- and software-notes templates: added a new JavaScript-usable function to open URLs in the system’s default browser (qmc2NEO.openLinkInDefaultBrowser(linkUrl))
imp: all former XML entities are handled as / expected to be entities now
inf: project renamed to M.A.M.E. Catalog / Launcher II
inf: the old MAWS feature has been dropped in favor of the ProjectMESS feature
