Any reason why I can't recompile 148u2 with MAME Compiler 64? I get to step #8 and get:
Applying Diff Patch...
Error Applying Patch.
PatchDiff(): The directory name is invalid

- Download MinGW from here and extract to C:\MinGW (I extracted to D:\Apps\MinGW)
- Install Mame Compiler (Installed to D:\Apps\MAME Complier 64\)
- Create a folder C:\MinGW\source\Mame0147u3 (Created D:\Apps\MinGW\source\Mame0148u2)
- Download the hiscore hi_147u3.txt from here and copy it into the C:\MinGW\patches (you can rename it to
hi_147.diff if you like but it doesn't matter) (Downloaded the 148 hiscore and moved to D:\Apps\MinGW\patches) - Download the mame0147s.zip from here and extract to C:\MinGW\source\Mame0147u3 (Downloaded mame0148s.zip and extracted to D:\Apps\MinGW\source\Mame0148u2) This leaves me with mame.zip I'm assuming it needs to be extracted again?
- Download the updates from here (0147u1_diff, 0147u2_diff and 0147u3_diff) and extract them to C:\MinGW\patches (Downloaded 0148u1_diff.zip and u2_diff.zip and extracted to D:\Apps\MinGW\patches)
- Download MameUI source from here extract somewhere then copy the src folder to C:\MinGW\source\Mame0147u3 (Downloaded the MameUI 148.2 source and copied the src folder to D:\Apps\MinGW\source\Mame0148u2 overwriting the previous files in src)
- Apply the official Mame patches 0147u1_diff, 0147u2_diff then 0147u3_diff. Apply them by browsing to each one selecting it
from the file browser then selecting "Apply Patch" - Now apply the Hiscore patch you downloaded from step 3 (Eg.
hi_147u3.diff or hi_147u3.txt depending on how you saved it) - Set your "Mame Source Folder" to C:\MinGW\source\Mame0147u3
and check you have the WinUI build option selected under OSD - Click GO! to compile.
