Has anyone had success with MacMAME 0.53a on OS 10.1? I tried it the other night, in full screen mode (on Defender) and got all sorts of weird stuff. The mini version of the screen looked totally black, unless it was in the background - and then you barely saw some letters, but you couldn't quite read them. I forget what full screen did, but I eventually had to force quit the app and restart because my mouse pointer was invisible! It worked, but you couldn't see it.
What's up with this?? Jesus, is OS X this easy to screw up??
Maybe I should run the other version within Classic.

yeah, macmame has big problems in osx. i've had the cursor disappearing problem also. its fixable with just a relogin. it also rights itself once in a while using mame (stop start game).
also, the opengl plugin is slow, sound isn't there, rave is gone forever, and glide is dead. personally, i wont use osx much until macmame is perfect there. I often play games (ROC N' ROPE!!!) during long downloads and such, so i'd certainly miss it.
try the newer blitter plugin. never tried it there.

Follow-up question: has anyone tried to use the Unix version of MAME on OSX?? Or has anyone tried compiling the MAME source code under OSX? God, I want to run MAME on my iBook....

umm, you need the classic version. at macmame.org. if you mean in "classic emulation" mode thing, then I have no idea how it works. It should, although I've seen games quit because of "unsupported resources needed".
you can run mame perfectly in os9. startup using your classic folder if you cant get OSX to work with it.
