==Configuration==
Depending on which version of MAME you are using, there are different ways to configure MAME. If you are using regular command line driven MAME, you operate on the mame.ini file that lives in the same directory as mame.exe. If you are instead using the official Windows GUI version, MAMEUI (previously MAME32; no longer officially released on the MAME website), you will configure MAME through the Options -> Default Game Options menu selection which opens up the Default Game Properties dialog.  All the settings contained in this dialog have an equivalent setting in the mame.ini file. If you are having trouble locating the correct setting in mame.ini, you should probably be using the MAMEUI version or a front-end. Basic MAME usage and configuration can be found in the [https://docs.mamedev.org/usingmame/index.html MAME Documentation].

MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) is an emulator for many types of arcade hardware. Unlike other emulators, which seek to handle all games for their focus systems, MAME only supports games for which support has specifically been added to the emulator. It currently supports over 6000 different games (approximately 3500 of those are unique games, the rest are clones).

Configuration

Depending on which version of MAME you are using, there are different ways to configure MAME. If you are using regular command line driven MAME, you operate on the mame.ini file that lives in the same directory as mame.exe. If you are instead using the official Windows GUI version, MAMEUI (previously MAME32; no longer officially released on the MAME website), you will configure MAME through the Options -> Default Game Options menu selection which opens up the Default Game Properties dialog. All the settings contained in this dialog have an equivalent setting in the mame.ini file. If you are having trouble locating the correct setting in mame.ini, you should probably be using the MAMEUI version or a front-end. Basic MAME usage and configuration can be found in the MAME Documentation.
