Erockus Arcade overview

Erockus Arcade is designed to simplify the use of SDLMAME. It's an interface (front-end) app for SDLMAME. It does not actually play games.

Erockus Arcade is not supported nor endorsed by the people behind SDLMAME, and it may not work with all versions of SDLMAME.

I've compiled Intel Mac versions of MAME available here - SDLMAME (Intel)

    Upon opening the app: ' “Erockus Arcade” can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software. This software needs to be updated. Contact the developer for more information.' Please advise.

    Unable to detect rom path after several configurations. Also crashes from some null exception error. Would rate negative stars if possible.

    The only FE for MAME I can use for macOS without using Bootcamp. It's also the only actively developed nowadays. Good job !

    MAME frontends are tricky. The good ones on Windows cost a fair amount of money. It's really nice this one is free, and is pretty good. I give it a star off because it's a bit fiddly to configure. I'm adding that star back to counteract the weird one-star review. One note: your full paths to ROMs can't have any spaces in them. (developer - either quote or escape paths...). Once I got that fixed, I'm happily running MAME. Very cool that this keeps up to date with sdlMAME versions so quickly. Thanks!
