iMAME Arcadie v1.2 (iPhone 5 & Dual Arcadie support + more!)

Posted by Steve on

Hello,

It’s been a while since i last worked on an update to the MAME port, so over the Xmas holidays i decided to rewrite some of the interface so it will autodetect iPhone/iPod types and arrange the screen accordingly to fit the Arcadie & Dual Arcadie caddies.  I’ve also removed the standard alert view and used a custom one which now allows me to move the y coordinate of the frame in iOS7 as it seems apple have decided to stop transforms working on them!

Here is a list of the modifications i’ve made:

  • Added support for devices that use extended height (iPhone5, iPod 5th gen, etc)
  • Added custom alert view so y values can be transformed (message box will now appear near the top rather than the centre)
  • Updated options view to fit Arcadie screen
  • Tweaks to status bar to work correctly in IOS7
  • Bypassed action sheet when options is pressed – will now go straight to main options
  • Removed iCade detection.
  • Plus minor tweaks here and there…

I now present you with an IPA (non code sign) version for jailbreak and full source code to build with your developer licence:

Also available on the downloads page.

Please note – i have only tested this on the following setups:

  • Non jailbreak (Dev certificate) / iOS7 (7.0.4) / iPhone 5S / Dual Arcadie
  • Jailbreak / iOS 6 (6.0.1) / iPod 4th Gen / Original Arcadie

I really hope the new version will work on iOS5 – please let me know if you have any success.

Regards,
Steve
