I had a few big technical hurdles to get over before being able to update AOX, MAME or MESS again.
I have pretty much made it over those hurdles and so can start updating them now.
If you have any suggestions, now is the time to post them.
In MAME and MESS (arcade and score mode emulators) I am going to make it meet the standards of Twin Galaxies. That way we can submit our scores to them. I was hoping to be able to talk to someone there and do something more official and automatic but they wont answer their emails so I am just going to make a way were we can submit as if we were a normal TG user.
That will mean disabling pause, fast forward and frame skip in score mode. Disabling frame skip is going to make it harder for some people to reach the 95% FPS but it might also fix the movie desync problem.
I'm going to try to have save states and configs be stored on the server instead of in your temp directory.
Make the popup that says only one credit in score mode disappear faster.
This would also mean we would go from MAME 0.135 to 0.141 and get all of their updates. You can see them here
http://mamedev.org/releases/whatsnew_0141.txt and MESS's in the attached file.
In AOX
Firefox often redownloads files that are already donwloaded - fix that.
Try to prevent files from getting corrupted.
Make it run from y8.com
Run multi-file games - like large amiga games and dos games.
Better loading progress bar.
Add button to open the AOX temp folder.
Any other suggestions?
