SDL MAME Cloud Gaming

What is MAME?

MAME is a multi-purpose emulation framework.

MAME's purpose is to preserve decades of software history. As electronic technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents this important "vintage" software from being lost and forgotten. This is achieved by documenting the hardware and how it functions. The source code to MAME serves as this documentation. The fact that the software is usable serves primarily to validate the accuracy of the documentation (how else can you prove that you have recreated the hardware faithfully?).

What is SDL MAME Cloud Gaming?

It's a fork of MAME (waiting to be merged with the original project) that implement a Cloud Gaming server.

How to compile?

You need to install some packages before compile. Check the content of the following script to ensure you have all the packages. If you are on Fedora (tested on Fedora 33) you can run:

fedora_install_dependencies.sh

In every compilation script there is a -jX parameter, replace X with the number of compile job (usually X = number of cores).

If you're on a *NIX or OSX system:

compileRelease.sh

or for debug:

compileDebug.sh

See the Compiling MAME page on our documentation site for more information, including prerequisites for Mac OS X and popular Linux distributions.

For recent versions of OSX you need to install Xcode including command-line tools and SDL 2.0.

For Windows users, we provide a ready-made build environment based on MinGW-w64.

Visual Studio builds are also possible, but you still need build environment based on MinGW-w64. In order to generate solution and project files just run:

compile_vs2019_SDL.bat

and then open the Visual Studio 2019 solution: ./build/projects/sdl/mame/vs2019/mame.sln

How to run?

Put in the folder roms the all the games that you want use.

Then if you're on a *NIX or OSX system:

run.sh

or on Windows:

run.bat

How to deploy the web page?

In Streaming/HTML/roms/ put all the game posters (.png format);

Edit the file Streaming/HTML/roms/list.txt with all the games that you want use in the format:

rom_name;description;other_info

sfiii3nr1;Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike;Capcom - 1999

Put the content of Streaming/HTML on your website.
