Note: I never said which winter.
Don't forget you can also use Vertical and Horizontal folders within the system folder in RL, so you had a fallback/main for Vert/Horizontal games, and RL would use the ratio/screen size to determine what was to be used, also the ability to use on the fly changing of the "default" bezel as long as you had multiple ini/png's and the file name matched (i used this function a lot)

Thank you for this no-nag build.
Please, start compiling No-Nag 32bit for Windows XP 32bit as well.
Definitely, it will also be more appreciated.Unfortunately this wont happen, you are the first person to ask for this since i started doing the no nags from mame 0.218, nearly 4 years ago. as mame themselves only release the 64bit version compiled now, the demand for it is very very low. My suggestion is to compile it yourself making sure not to use the 'PTR64=1' switch .
I have left instructions on how to compile this no nag several times on this forum and i also believe in this thread, its not hard to do
Sorry i can not offer any more than that.

Sorry for being a little late on the reply, i did make these 5 years ago, but didn't realise the single case Captain Commando was missing.

Cool idea. I was waiting for something like this.
But is it also possible to add global Emulator Bezel for all Games? I only need one Bezel for one System/Emulator.Try
this is a plugin for LB/BB to show bezels in Standalone emus. No need to install any external tools.

using chrome on windows 10 and 11 latest release reports virus found.
This is a false positive...
I always scan the exe prio to upload to make sure its clean, and if a virus was present i would see everyone that downloaded it reporting the same thing,

I am having the same issue...I followed the same guide for a launchbox install of MAME. I downloaded the matching .252 no nag exe and overwrote the one in the mame folder within launchbox, but I will get nag screens when launching games....did I miss something?
The No Nag will only suppress the Rom Warning window when you run a rom that has known issues, To check this run a game and on startup
does a window show up like for example the following
If so, then you have something configured wrong, to check further if you press TAB with a game loaded.
If this line 'Warning Information' is NOT there then No Nag will have done nothing, as it will only suppress Warnings and the Initializing txt.
The no nag is working fine, its tested fully before release and if i made a mistake it would be picked up on the day i release it, this release is at the end of its cycle, and a new version should be out on Wednesday the 29th.

Thank you for your response. Is there maybe another way? Are there video's of how to compile mame? Im not an expert in this

Scroll up just a little in this thread you will see i already gave instructions on how to no nag for yourself, its pretty easy to do.

perfect solutions for removing this nags. I was wondering if it is possible to also remove the screen 'state successfully loaded'. i don't think this message is needed and it looks not nice in a cabinet
Not something i will do, sorry.

This is exactly what I was searching for, thanks for going out of your way to reply here for me @MadK9.
I should of added, the only section of mamedev you want is the Downloads, just grab the latest mysys
then close the page, you will not do any of the other stuff.

@gavatron I have posted before how to edit the source and compile mame.
It takes time, about an hour to do, remember any mistakes you make may not show up in the compile
untill very near the end so you just waste even more time (ask me how i know). So take your time.
Additionally, the code base changes and as such the diff files will not match versions.
NOTE: use the line numbers as a guide, as the source changes the lines move, and if there is no major change to the source then there will be no diff file for the new version.

is there any way to make a template to make our own, there some Nintendo switch games you never included and I want to learn how to make it like your styles. any information on how to make them please share with us this will save a lot work on your side and we all can contribute as well
Use Powerpoint + Handbrake to make em. Heres a guide to get you going.
Heres a real quick one i did with it, by just using images from the net, and i used obs in LB to grab the intro... I spent less than 15mins on it, and a lot of that was grabbing the media. Use handbrake to run over the exported powerpoint video to reduce its size. I wouldn't use this one though as it is rough, but its purpose was to show its not that difficuly to create Theme videos, you can also get the media from the Hyperspin themes and make them look identical.

If you are using the LB Installed version of mame, there is no ini file for mame, so you do not need to add the skip_gameinfo 1, as this is already set for you by LB in the command line for mame.
There are some people confusing what this no nag actually does, and it only does one thing which is removing the information warning screen, this screen is still viewable by using the escape menu and selecting the warning information entry, if you do not see this entry then the game you are playing is emulated 100% correctly. All other popups within mame are turned off via the skip_gameinfo 1 from either the cmd line (This is automatically added if you told Launcbox to setup mame for you) or the mame.ini.
If you have replaced the exe with the matching version to your roms, and used the LB installed version of mame it will work with no extra steps.

Win10 detects trojan in .246 - Can anyone confirm/deny?
I always parse the exe at virus total before i post it here just in case something has managed to get on my machine.

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.

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,

@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.

@Rauzzman80 Tested and its working fine, the edits go no where near any of the hiscore functions.
please check your plugin.ini file and make sure Autofire and Cheat are set to '0' and Hiscore is set to '1'
Also check you have the new hiscore folder as the folder was swapped from hi to hiscore in last months mame update.
This is one of the main reasons i always recommend getting the full release instead of just changing the exe every month, as support files/folders can and do change. Not saying this is your issue, but has been an issue in the past with people just pasting the new file in the old folder month after month.

In case any of you want the filters button, i've edited the SideBarView to add the filters option, just hit the icon to the left of the search bar to pop it open,
This is an interim fix until @shadowfire adds it to a full release. I recommend backing up the SideView.xaml before you replace the file.

Thanks for these. Did you create them using a script or have to do them all manually ?
I just used XnViewMP to batch convert the files names. I recommend XnViewMP been using it for a fair few years now, pretty versatile package.

I will share them via pm, but if the Author has no issue with them i will post them here.
Mame No-Nag Updated Monthly, Current Version:
in Third-party Apps and Plugins
Posted
Some have replied to you with the solution, if you are still seeing this same 'Press any Key' screen then you need to have skip_gameinfo either in the LaunchBox Launch options for mame or manually set the "skip_gameinfo 1" in the mame.ini file, that is an internal command for mame itself to directly skip the Press any Key screen, this no-nag does not touch that screen or its functions. If you scroll back a few posts here you will see what this no-nag actually does.
