I just installed sdlmame 0.131u4 (via a .deb file I found) and QMC2 0.2b8 (via source and checkinstall), and I'm running into a bit of an issue.
sdlmame starts up just fine, and I have everything pretty much configured. But I can't get the cheats to work.
In the /etc/sdlmame/mame.ini file, I have cheat set to 1 (which is true), and the cheatpath set to the cheat.zip file. I also have QMC2 set with the exact same options. Yet when I start sdlmame and bring up the menu via Tab, it doesn't give me the cheat option.
I don't know if sdlmame doesn't support cheats anymore, or if something isn't working properly. I'm absolutely lost, and I'm sure it's probably something trivial. But I need help.
