Arcade

Namco System22 has been done separately to this release.
The above images are only a sample of the whole set.
Does anyone want the platform xml file with everything done to date already added? I have been thinking about providing 'master build' with the xml and every cfg file and image done so far, keeping it up to date as I work my may through.
I freaking love Namco. Not the most amount of hits compared to say Konami, but when Namco hit they hit hard. 190ish games playable in MAME with most running great. Some of the most solid hardware to date IMO. A lot generational hardware is interchangeable which made setting controls much easier. I was able to enjoy playing my way through this one. There are a bunch of hidden gems that were locked to Japan, but do not have any language barrier. Plenty of standouts like Gamshara, an excellent gallery shooter.
As usual all analog controls are set correctly, or not at all if needed. All characters unlocked for Soul Blade, SoulCalibur and all the Tekken games. Everything working correctly.
In a nutshell, I'm tooth picking my way through MAME platform by platform, and pre configuring the controls for all arcade games that are designated as working.
You know the pain of weird awkward auto control mapping and fumbling around trying to figure what is going on. I have done that for you!
These remaps have been done exclusively for controllers. No keyboard inputs at all and all non essential inputs completely removed. Only what is necessary has been mapped.
Also, I have provided button layout images so you know exactly what the buttons are for every game!
I haven't just set whatever, every control has been tested, scrutinised and re-tested before actually making a definitive decision. I believe I have everything mapped to be as intuitive as possible.
Menu control in arcade games can be unintuitive when using a controller. These remaps have been made to make menu-ing intuitive and easy.
NOTE: If the left stick doesn't work in menus, the D-Pad will.
The per game .cfg remap files are idiot proof. Every input is accounted for and set, so your main .cfg wont auto assign any inputs.
Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
However, as stated above this was for some games, not appropriate. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download Remap files and place these in the cfg folder of MAME.
Download NVRAM files and place in nvram folder of MAME.
Download Button Layout Images so you know what the controls are.
PLAY!!!

roishtar Multiplayer Info:
-An odd game. There are 2 characters on screen but playable with 1 player. Your 2nd character is a knight who is immortal (kinda) and auto attacks, which helps with having to control 2 characters independently.
-However, the original game was kinda designed to be played as a 2 player game. Like a "let little brother play as the 2nd character cus he can't die and auto attacks" kinda thing.
-So, the 2nd character has been mapped to the right stick of the 1st controller & the left stick of the 2nd controller, to allow for 2 players. There are no buttons for the 2nd character.

By marcel_knotter

this is a custom made bezel for the namco classic collection volume 2. this rom has very nice versions of pacman,digdug,and rally x. all are capable of 2 players at once. the rom file should be in the mame pack. it is called ncv2. i can reccomend the classic collections if you set the game up for team play on a birthday. there was no bezel created yet... so here it is.

Alpine Surfer Media Pack

By kim_sama98

Alpine Surfer has been playable for about a year and nobody has made a video snap or theme for the game. So I decided to make them myself. The theme seems lazy since I suck at making themes (I used Vegas Pro to make the theme) I decided to add the 3D Box I made, and added the Japanese flyer in case the Japanese version ever gets dumped

Midway & Bally/Midway | MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

Midway. A lot of hidden gems here. A good mix, decades worth of games. Was nice to go through this particular slice of arcade history. Nothing else to say aside from play with this one! All cheats (as far as I'm aware) are one time use and don't save to the nvram state. If you know of anything that does, let me know!
In a nutshell, I'm tooth picking my way through MAME platform by platform, and pre configuring the controls for all arcade games that are designated as working.
You know the pain of weird awkward auto control mapping and fumbling around trying to figure what is going on. I have done that for you!
These remaps have been done exclusively for controllers. No keyboard inputs at all and all non essential inputs completely removed. Only what is necessary has been mapped.
Also, I have provided button layout images so you know exactly what the buttons are for every game!
I haven't just set whatever, every control has been tested, scrutinised and re-tested before actually making a definitive decision. I believe I have everything mapped to be as intuitive as possible.
Menu control in arcade games can be unintuitive when using a controller. These remaps have been made to make menu-ing intuitive and easy.
NOTE: If the left stick doesn't work in menus, the D-Pad will.
The per game .cfg remap files are idiot proof. Every input is accounted for and set, so your main .cfg wont auto assign any inputs.
Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
However, as stated above this was for some games, not appropriate. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download Remap files and place these in the cfg folder of MAME.
Download NVRAM files and place in nvram folder of MAME.
Download Button Layout Images so you know what the controls are.
PLAY!!!
Below is a table of everything that has been done game by game. I have noted everything of importance for the end user experience.
Developer intended cheats are also listed below.

Gamshara 3D box Image

By Pawrock

Now Gamshara is playable in Mame, I needed a 3D box for Launchbox/Bigbox but couldn't find one.
I modified an existing box from the database and include it here in case it is of use to anyone else.
Credit to the creator of the original Arcade 3D box set whose work I built upon.

Capcom inc. CPS 1,2,3 | MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

PLEASE NOTE: The ZN1 & ZN2 games aren't covered here. The Zinc emulator is still the best option for these games. I'll be covering these in their entirety at a later date.
It was mixed bag when configuring Capcom. You got some rotary joystick games, trackball games and of course the mighty CPS games. I honestly thought there would be more Capcom games, but inc. the ZN1&2 games we're looking at around 120-130 games, excluding double ups. There are also some amazing hidden gems here, outside the CPS games.
In a nutshell, I'm tooth picking my way through MAME platform by platform, and pre configuring the controls for all arcade games that are designated as working.
You know the pain of weird awkward auto control mapping and fumbling around trying to figure what is going on. I have done that for you!
These remaps have been done exclusively for controllers. No keyboard inputs at all and all non essential inputs completely removed. Only what is necessary has been mapped.
Also, I have provided button layout images so you know exactly what the buttons are for every game!
I haven't just set whatever, every control has been tested, scrutinised and re-tested before actually making a definitive decision. I believe I have everything mapped to be as intuitive as possible.
Menu control in arcade games can be unintuitive when using a controller. These remaps have been made to make menu-ing intuitive and easy.
NOTE: If the left stick doesn't work in menus, the D-Pad will.
The per game .cfg remap files are idiot proof. Every input is accounted for and set, so your main .cfg wont auto assign any inputs.
Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
However, as stated above this was for some games, a bit objectional for this platform. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download Remap files and place these in the cfg folder of MAME.
Download NVRAM files and place in nvram folder of MAME.
Download Button Layout Images so you know what the controls are.
PLAY!!!
Below is a table of everything that has been done game by game. I have noted everything of importance for the end user experience.
Developer intended cheats are also listed below.

Sega RingEdge - Themes Video - 60FPS
Themes are based on existing themes by various creators from hyperspin.fe (mainly Skywatcher). The psd files that Sucramjd shared to me were also helpful.
I have re-recorded them with my own editing, as the existing versions did not suit me because of the slow start, which is not suitable for FAST browsing through the list of games, and the 30fps, which causes a slight "stuttering" effect and screen tearing.
I am in the process of recording the remaining themes for contemporary pc-based systems

Marquees (MAME - animated)

By superrob3000

Animated marquees I made for a handful of MAME games.
They are all gif files, so add them as "Arcade - Marquee" Images in LaunchBox. They will animate if you are using the ThirdScreen plugin. Otherwise you'll need to modify your theme files to support animated gifs.

Marquees:
Daytona 2 Mad Planets NBA Jam Punisher Street Fighter Alpha 2 Spiderman

Hyper NeoGeo 64 & The Rest of SNK | MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

This is the rest of SNK after completing NeoGeo. This one is all about those rotary joystick games and the best way to map them. But, did you know that the majority of these have a joystick hack version that doesn't use a rotary input at all. Great!
Despite this I still have configured the rotary versions. Essentially, you can turn/spin left or right on the spot with these games. On OG hardware you'd twist the joystick to do this. Figuring this out for controllers was tricky but nothing I can't handle.

Turn left & right is on the right stick and LT & RT. This suits those who prefer to use both sticks with shoot on RB/LB. You can also use LT & RT to turn and use the face buttons to shoot.
Hyper NeoGeo isn't 100% yet but it's getting there. Enough for me to configure for.
Alpha Denshi had a very close relationship with SNK. So, I configured those handful of games for the sake of completeness.

Below is a table of everything that has been done game by game. I have noted everything of importance for the end user experience.

snk.cpp ASO: Armoured Scum Object / Alpha Mission
aso

-This game was called ASO in Japan and Alpha Mission in other regions. Both have been configured and a separate image created for both.

bermudat Controls:
-Rotary joystick game. Mapped correctly so rotate is on the triggers or right stick. Using digital inputs for these is way better.
-These games do not play like twin stick shooters. The rotary element was for simply turning (rotating) left and right.

Dip Switch:
-Difficulty, lives changeable. Using 'normal' defaults. Chopper I

countryc Game Info:
-Fuck this game.

Controls:
-Trackball golf game.
-Man, this is the only game so far that has defeated me. It's working but it's impossible to refine your shots with analog input. It's midrange hits no matter what, even after swapping to digital. Problem with digital is that it has no variance with speed. I dunno, it's shitty game anyway.
-You are welcome to have a crack at this to get it working 'perfectly', but I'm out on this one. It works well enough to play.

Dip Switch:
-Difficulty, lives changeable. Using 'normal' defaults Fighting Soccer

Controls:
-Rotary joystick game. Mapped correctly so rotate is on the triggers or right stick.
-There is a joystick hack version 'fsoccerb' that has been changed/hacked so you simply kick the ball in the direction you are facing. Completely removing the rotary aspect of the input.

-What an odd control scheme. On original hardware, move left and right is on 2 buttons, for the right hand. With a joystick in the left hand, that is for attacking and blocking depending on which direction you pushed.
-Attack and block controls are set to an 8 way joystick. Rather than break these out onto button inputs, keeping this set to a joystick is preferable. This is due to how moves are pulled off and really requires joystick input to play correctly.

Sega MAME Arcade Project Combined / Master | MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

After finishing the project for Sega, I thought I'd provide a "master" download with everything on one place.
Below will be a breakdown of all the hardware (mostly in chronological order) along with links to the individual downloads, if you don't want all of it.
Moving forward, this kind of over comprehensive breakdown is not going to be needed. Sega is particular, as it has a lot of hardware to categorise by.
I knew Sega was going to be the most awkward to get right with this project, hence why I started with it. Rom/game selection was the most tricky, as I don't want crossover going forward.
But, got there in the end and its a beast.

Sega Arcade Outrun, Hang-On, Mega Play & Misc | MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

This is the rest of what there is for Sega in MAME. Consider this the Mop for Sega. It's been a journey. I won't be splitting these releases up like this in the future. They'll be in a more condensed form. This process was really only required for Sega as it spans many years, and there is a multitude of hardware.
If you think I have missed anything let me know.
In a nutshell, I'm tooth picking my way through MAME platform by platform, and pre configuring the controls for all arcade games that are designated as working.
You know the pain of weird awkward auto control mapping and fumbling around trying to figure what is going on. I have done that for you!
These remaps have been done exclusively for controllers. No keyboard inputs at all and all non essential inputs completely removed. Only what is necessary has been mapped.
Also, I have provided button layout images so you know exactly what the buttons are for every game!
I haven't just set whatever, every control has been tested, scrutinised and re-tested before actually making a definitive decision. I believe I have everything mapped to be as intuitive as possible.
Menu control in arcade games can be unintuitive when using a controller. These remaps have been made to make menu-ing intuitive and easy.
NOTE: If the left stick doesn't work in menus, the D-Pad will.
The per game .cfg remap files are idiot proof. Every input is accounted for and set, so your main .cfg wont auto assign any inputs.
NVRAM files are not needed here.
Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
However, as stated above this was for some games, a bit objectional for this platform. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download Remap files and place these in the cfg folder of MAME.
Download NVRAM files and place in nvram folder of MAME.
Download Button Layout Images so you know what the controls are.
PLAY!!!

Sega Arcade 1984 & Before| MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

There was a significant change in quality and graphical fidelity after 1984, with the release of the Hang On scaling hardware and the System 16 in 1985.
This creates a nice category to errrm... categorise these early arcade boards and hardware. There is a definite before and after 1984 boundary to work with.
So, here is everything Sega up to 1984.
In a nutshell, I'm tooth picking my way through MAME platform by platform, and pre configuring the controls for all arcade games that are designated as working.
You know the pain of weird awkward auto control mapping and fumbling around trying to figure what is going on. I have done that for you!

Menu control in arcade games can be unintuitive when using a controller. These remaps have been made to make menu-ing intuitive and easy.
NOTE: If the left stick doesn't work in menus, the D-Pad will.
The per game .cfg remap files are idiot proof. Every input is accounted for and set, so your main .cfg wont auto assign any inputs.
NVRAM files are not needed for this platform. Everything is done with dip switches which are configured in the provided .cfg files.
Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
However, as stated above this was for some games, a bit objectional for this platform. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.

Sega System C & E Arcade | MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

Nothing that savage on the control configuration front with these boards. No other weirdness's and everything pretty easy going. A nice reprieve from the horrors of the System 16 Board.
There are some truly interesting games here, including some of the most bizarre Sonic games you'll ever play. One game used to be attached to a freaking popcorn machine.

In a nutshell, I'm tooth picking my way through MAME platform by platform, and pre configuring the controls for all arcade games that are designated as working.
You know the pain of weird awkward auto control mapping and fumbling around trying to figure what is going on. I have done that for you!
These remaps have been done exclusively for controllers. No keyboard inputs at all and all non essential inputs completely removed. Only what is necessary has been mapped.
Also, I have provided button layout images so you know exactly what the buttons are for every game!
I haven't just set whatever, every control has been tested, scrutinised and re-tested before actually making a definitive decision. I believe I have everything mapped to be as intuitive as possible.
Menu control in arcade games can be unintuitive when using a controller. These remaps have been made to make menu-ing intuitive and easy.
NOTE: If the left stick doesn't work in menus, the D-Pad will.
The per game .cfg remap files are idiot proof. Every input is accounted for and set, so your main .cfg wont auto assign any inputs.
NVRAM files are not needed for this platform. Everything is done with dip switches which are configured in the provided .cfg files.
Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
However, as stated above this was for some games, a bit objectional for this platform. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download Remap files and place these in the cfg folder of MAME.
Download Button Layout Images so you know what the controls are.
PLAY!!!

Sega X & Y Arcade Boards | MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

Nothing that strenuous with the X & Y boards. Everything was nice n easy. Some notable differences with versions however. Power Drift being the one I want to tell everyone about. The Link version of this game has an option to stop the ground level from tilting when turning a corner. Great if you are sensitive to motion sickness. I'm not, but even I get sick of the tilting on the original. No more, yay.

In a nutshell, I'm tooth picking my way through MAME platform by platform, and pre configuring the controls for all arcade games that are designated as working.

NVRAM files are also here. A lot of games need fixes or calibration in the service/test/dip switch menus before they'll work. There's also a bunch of unlockable content, preferable settings and a whole world of strange and wonderful crap in these menus. This will also be covered in this project. Only Line of Fire & Rail Chase have an nvram file provided as it's needed for the game to work.
Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
However, as stated above this was for some games, a bit objectional for this platform. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.

Arcade - 3D Box Update (5.12.23)

By romatno

Disclaimer - A few of these MIGHT NOT BE NEW.... I had a catastrophic PC event and lost a lot of what I had been working on, so a few of these might have been mixed up into the "new" folder.
FYI: I did not use the cool app that I found with one of the downloads - it was a template that automatically created the 3D box art... I was unable to use it because I do not have Photoshop. All of these boxes were created with Gimp, and it was literally my first time using Gimp (more of a Windows Paint Guy 🤣). Please go easy on me - I am not an artist. I just wanted to share what I created so that others who are bugged by the missing boxes can enjoy.
I made some 3D Boxes for Arcade games that didn't appear to already have one (neither through the Launchbox or EmuMovies.
I added the developer onto the bottom corner of the box any time I was able to... some of the games do not have a dev listed, so I left it blank.
I am not looking to get in trouble for copyright infringement, so please, if there's something in here that shouldn't be, let me know and I can remove it.
Otherwise, I hope you all enjoy these.
Here is a list of the 3D Boxes in this set. I hope you enjoy!

-This game is known under 3 different titles. All 3 have been configured for regional preference and choice.

Controls:
-This game uses a shoot button that lets you shoot in the direction you are facing. The other shoot button only shoots up, this makes it easier to kill dudes when you are facing the other way.
-There is a button that makes you disappear and gives you loads of I frames. Mastering it is the key to winning this game. I placed this on RT as well as B. Makes it way easier to play.
