About This File

**This removes the nag screen that informs you if a rom doesn't work correctly, or if at all, if you use this no nag, then please do NOT go to the mame support site with issues with games, please only use if you understand that there will be no help from anyone at mamedev as you are using a modified version of mame.

 

Contents: mame.exe - Normal Mame with Nags removed. (Note mame no longer carries the 64 in its exe name changed by Devs in 0.229)

This version also allows the games Akai Katana and Dodonpachi Saidaioujou  to be played.

It's advisable to download the full mame official pack and install it, then just overwrite the exe with the replacement, this covers any changes the mame devs may have made to the support files.

After you have done this, make sure you copy the folders artwork, ctrlr, cheat, hlsl, ini, folders and the ini files from the root of your original mame folder, and move/copy them to the new install.  

If you are using your own installed/setup of mame then make sure you also set in the mame.ini  'Skip_gameinfo  1'

If you got Launchbox to setup mame for you when asked, you only need to replace the exe and play.

 

As some are not sure about  False Positives, and report a virus was detected, As goes for all versions i upload, they are all ran through virustotal before i upload, and if by any chance something did end up with an issue it would be noticed very quickly after upload and would be removed/restricted.

0.276 - VirusTotal - File - c54cff5ecbf158bfde7cf564961241412f04699476695dd2b2505d5e207c116f

 

All NEW versions of the No-Nag will be posted in this download thread only, if you wish to get the new releases every month, either follow myself or the thread, As the download section will not show any new releases.

MAME 0.276

MAME 0.276 has arrived just in time for the end of March, and it’s full of emulation goodness! Remember that 64-bit ARMv8 recompiler we added a few months ago? Well now it’s even faster! This release fixes graphical issues in Konami GX arcade games and Philips CD-i software. We’ve added several IGS gambling games, as well as Chinese versions of some Dynax mahjong games. The LinnDrum percussion synthesiser is now working with interactive controls and sound output. And speaking of sound, audio emulation issues in several arcade games have been fixed.

PC-88VA emulation is progressing, with fixes for multiple graphics modes. A few more peripherals for the TI-99 computer family are now supported. There have been a few CPU/DSP fixes that should improve Sega 3D arcade game emulation. Psion hand-helds now correctly detect more memory configurations and give better-looking video output. We’ve also fixed some issues with CHD creation, floppy disk image handling, and XML system information output. Windows users now get an option to have debugger windows appear in the taskbar and window switcher.

As always, you can marvel at all the exciting development this month when you read the whatsnew.txt file. The original source code and untouched 64-bit Windows binary packages can be found on https://www.mamdev.org/release.html

Thank you @MadK9 for your time and effort building a No-Nag version! But when I download and extract v. 240, Mame itself and the Windows file details still show v. 239.

@Your_Friendly_AI_Overlord Removed for the moment will recheck, thanks for pointing it out.

Yep i messed up was real late, i see the mame update had gone up, and grabbed the new source, but seems this wasn't updated yet, the binaries were, and i just didn't notice. I'm rebuilding it now, will upload shortly.

GRAZIE HEAPS COMPAGNO

Salve, ho scaricato MAME 0.241 da  pleasuredome  e seguo il nuovo passaggio automatico per un nuovo set di importazione di MAME in LaunchBox, ma al termine scarico qui il nuovo file mame.exe (di 0.241) e lo sovrascrivo in LaunchBox/Emulatori/MAME cartella.

Successivamente apro mame.ini e cambio Skip_gameinfo 1  (prima era a 0) e provo ad esempio ad avviare il gioco di galaga. mi dispiace ma non funziona

Come fare ?

Mi aiuti per favore!!

This no nag works perfectly, its tested before i release it. Just replace the exe in mame with this new one, and make sure the ini is edited. The no nag removes the Loading/Decrypting Text and removes the warning popup if the rom has a known issue,

Im not sure what you are expecting in the way of help, and why you say it wont work if you have followed the instructions.

You need to give screenshots of what you are seeing or its showing.

Thanks for these no nag versions.

How do I find the 241 version? Seems like this thread just keeps track of the most recent mame.

Thanks, much appreciated.

I did this and now MAME GUI is not working. Dies on game selection screen. (Leaves a stuck mouse cursor on screen)

Please help

I've changed video mode to auto and d3d and still the same. Games run fine though when launched thru LB.

Apologies if I am missing something.

I just did a clean extraction of mame0245b_64bit, and then overwrote mame.exe with the one in mame_0.245.7z. However when I boot a console, I still get the console info screen. I see there is a 'b' in the file I got. Is this a newer version than standard 0.245? When I start the original mame.exe that came with it, it still says 0.245 on the menu. So I'm not sure if I missed something obvious, or if I am dealing with a version mismatch.

I believe @MadK9 compiles these for Arcade only and he doesnt compile for other systems like what is in a software list and the like, he would need to confirm though.

Full support for other systems and software lists is still included.

The "b" just means Binary.  aka the executable + the other files.  As opposed to the Source files which are the files used to compile and create 'executable + the other files'.

Did you edit "mame.ini" and change "skip_gameinfo" to "1"?  (Default is "0" [zero])

Hi there, 

I am on a freshly new Launchbox install. I imported a MAME arcade full set and let Launchbox setup MAME on its own.

I replaced my mame.exe by the no nag mame.exe but it does nothing.

I think it's because I don't have any mame.ini file in my mame root folder (and set skip_gameinfo to 1 in it) and I don't know if there is one or where to find it.

I can start MAME games throught launchbox but with the nag screen.

 

I tried to generate a mame.ini file using the command "mame.exe -cc" and it worked, but it looks like it's being ignored by the MAME config in launchbox. 

Any help appreciated at this point.

Re-downloaded today and didn't get the warning.  Interesting.

For the record, the detection was Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml

Version 0.246 is not removing nag screens for me.

 

Edit: Things I've tried to make it working:

- Removed the Launchbox Running Script for nag screens

- Deleted the -skip_gameinfo command-line 

- Edited the mame.ini (skip_gameinfo line can be found under CORE MISC OPTIONS)

- Turned On "Skip game information screen" under Miscellaneous options in MAME's General options

No luck.

@WizardoThe 0.246 EXE works, so it is something on your setup.  If the skip_gameinfo setting is set to 1 then more than likely, you are pointing to wrong MAME.EXE and/or MAME.ini file, particularly if you used the LB MAME "all in one" setup.
