MAME: edit the params in the es_systems instead of relying on a wrapper

XargonWan opened this issue · comments

This:

<command label="MAME (Standalone)">%STARTDIR%=~/.mame %EMULATOR_MAME% -rompath %GAMEDIR%\;%ROMPATH%/arcade %BASENAME%</command>

Could become:

<command label="MAME (Standalone)">%EMULATOR_MAME% -inipath /var/config/mame/ini -rompath %GAMEDIR%\;%ROMPATH%/arcade %BASENAME%</command>

And in this case the wrapper can be deleted:

  • the file itself
  • as es_find_rules entry
  • in the manifest at the cp line

NOTE: check if this approach is viable for every other emulator which we're relying on a wrapper
