New version of IARL is available in the repo (1.5.4). Changes include:
- Added MAME 2003 (0.078 archive), Best of MAME 2003 ,Removed MAME 2010. This change was specifically for users on RPi's. This archive is the 'most compatible' one available for the versions of MAME available for RPi. In testing, most games work (but not all, it's an issue with the MAME core rather than the addon though)
- Added login capability (courtesy of primaeval). Some archives on archive.org require a user to login to view and download. Note that Kodi stores login and password setting information as plain text though (per the Kodi wiki note: Security consideration: when using option="hidden", the value entered by the user is still saved as an unencrypted string value on disk), so be aware of that for security purposes.
- Update to wizard. Still in work some.
If anyone is interested in helping me with this addon, I'm looking for help with the following:
Compatiblity list: I try to test as many as possible, but now there are just too many! I've created a list
here, which I'll use to update my wiki. If you test your system or have 'ideal' settings for a particular system please enter it in this list.
7zip testing on Android: Some users report that 7z archives dont work on android. Someone with an android box and adb and/or command line access on their system PM me if you're able to help with this.
Game window update: I'll admit that I'm not an artist. I'd like to update the Game Window skin so it's prettier. Any skinning experts willing to help out?
