The first thing you will see after starting MAME will be the screen to select a ROM.

Mame32 Games How To Install And

There are some precompiled MAME versions out there and in this article Ill show you how to install and use MAME under MacOS X Mavericks (will probably work for older and newer Intel based MacOS X versions as well).

You can of course support us in other ways (see Support Us on the left ).

A very few Arcade places might still exist of course, but its not as popular as back in the days.

Windows users have a much easier start when it comes to MAME.

Just for convenience I packed all needed files to run MAME into one archive (Zip).

I do, as usual, strongly recommend to get the latest version from the developers websites (see also the details with each step).

Mame32 Games 32 Bit Version With

The older 64 bit version, with SDL 1.2, and the newer 32 bit version with SDL 2.x.

The latter seems more compatible with the different OS X versions, so the 32 bit version is the recommended version for OLD Macs.

In the 32 bit version mame64.command is called mame.command.

The new 64 bit version includes SDL 2.0.9.

Dont forget to copy the SDL2.framework file from the SDL2-2.0.9.dmg to LibraryFrameworks.

The first time you start mame64 you may have to set the directory for the ROMs in the configuration screen of MAME.

For games and emulators we do need this, so we need to install SDL.

Next open the Finder and go to LibraryFrameworks (from the Finder menu: Go Go to folder, enter LibraryFrameworks and click Go ).

Now drag the file SDL.framework from the DMG to the LibraryFrameworks directory you just opened.

Your Mac will ask for authentication, and you will need to enter your password.

I believe there is even een PowerPC version to be found there (older version though).

I believe the build-in unzipper of MacOS X will create a directory with the files in it automatically when double clicking the file, which results in a directory named the same as the zip file, just without the zip extension.

We need these images of these original ROMs or EPROMs to be able to run the game.

Some of these developers have graciously made their ROMs available to the public, and some of those can be found on the MAME website.

The latter option is so the copyright warning and the technical info wont hold you up.

MAME cannot find the ROMs, since its not in the current directory.

To exit the error message press ENTER once or twice.).

Youll notice that Ive added -skipgameinfo as a parameter for the.mame64 statement, which will hide a copyright notifications and the technical specs of the ROM youre about to start.
