    There is one somewhere, I just don't remember where. I'm guessing Seleuco posted it earlier in this forum. Street Fighter 1, 2, champion edition, and turbo all work. Couldn't get any MK games to work though. Might have to look into it.

    The romset is 0.37b5.

    First post, so I begin with a big hello to all forum members.

    I have a problem with iMAme4all 1.10. It was running wothout problems. I have an iCade and was very pleased with everything.

    I have 2 small daughters, the use my iPad 2 to play various games. The start everything they see just to try. I guess they messed up with iMame4all.

    The emulator starts, connects with the iCade and lets you play, but whenever you are playing a game and move the joystick, it seems like some of the game tunnings are also controlled with it: moving right and left make a message appear "Sample #1 volume", same with sample #2 #3 ... sometimes other similar messages appear.

    So it looks like the girls entered the mame menu and changed the key setting for a lot of these "tunnings"

    I'm unable to enter the mame configuration menu. Help says something about star+select but I have tried every two-button combination. I also read somewhere it had been disabled for stability reasons.

    Reinstalling the program does not solve the issue.

    Any help would be very appreciated, thanks!

    This sounds as if you have to run iexplorer on your PC to browse the iPhone contents, find the imame folder and delete the .CFG of the app (I think it was mame.cfg, but I'm not sure). Next time you run the app, it generates the CFG again with the correct button configuration.

    Indeed. If it breaks in iOS 6 its over for a non-jailbroken iMame.

    Hi, I dusted off my copy of imame on my ipad and tried placing the cheat.dat file in the documents folder in imame. However, I enabled the cheats in the imame menu after selecting the game but there seems to be no way of selecting or activating the cheats. I opened the cheat.dat file with wordpad and can see "un squadron" and the invincibility cheat listed but can't acivate it in game. Could anyone help? Thanks!

    If you own a Ipad 1 it's no problem. You cant update to ios6 so you can play imame forever.

    I recently upgraded from a 16 gig iPad 2 to a 32 gig iPad 2. Almost everything went across, but i can't get iMAME to load on the new iPad - iTunes simply tells me it won't load with a fairly generic error message. Anyone know anything I can do to get it on the new iPad?

    Thanks for the answer, Jim!

    Those are good news as it should work on the final version!

    Hope the new iPhone with those extra pixels don't mess it up, though...

    totally kicking myself for not picking this up when it was first released. is there any way to get this on my iphone without jailbreaking or being a developer (if i had an uncracked version of the original ipa file for example)?

    Not really as IPa'S are tied to your account... Unless tou know someone who has it and give you is password so you can install and then change the IPad/iPhone to your account...

    Anyway, another question, has anyone with ios 6 final can test if this imame works?

    Just updated my iphone4 to ios6. Saw the thread and tried iMAME. It works perfectly. Played Cadillacs & Dinosaurs for a few minutes to try it. Nothing strange, exactly the same as with ios 5.1.1. Enjoy! :D Btw, I have ios6, even though I can't set it in my TA profile because ios5.x is the highest option you can choose.
