Compiling your own MAME exe

brianon

Anyone tried it ?

I used to be able to build my own.
Tried to build Mame32 Plus recently but can't get it going.

Error I get is...

C:\mamesrc>mingw32-make
Linking obj/windows/mamep/osd/winui/verinfo32.exe...
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.2.1-sjlj/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: canno
t find -lunicows
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
mingw32-make: *** [obj/windows/mamep/osd/winui/verinfo32.exe] Error 1

Here's some help:

Seems like the error refers to lunicows not being available, and it's in the extra_utils package. Make sure you have that and give it another go.

thanks for the reply.

I have the extra utils stuff. Gave up on it after.

Managed to get MameUI going so not to worry.
Managed to get Tetris Grand Master 2/+ compiled in also which is a bonus
