MAME
by MAMEdev · Mostly GPLv2, with some subcomponents licensed differently.
95/100how this is calculated
A multi-purpose emulation framework. Its purpose is to preserve decades of software history. As electronic technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents this important «vintage» software from being lost and forgotten.

Install MAME silently
The unattended switch below is the one MAMEdev declares in the installer manifest, not one we guessed by trying flags.
64-bit · publisher-declared
.\mame0287b_x64.exe -yARM64 · publisher-declared
.\mame0287b_arm64.exe -yRun it from the folder holding the downloaded file, in a terminal opened as administrator when the package installs for all users. Silent means no window and no prompts, so check the exit code rather than waiting for something to appear: 0 is success and 3010 means it worked but wants a reboot.
How we scored this 95 out of 100
| Signal | Finding | Points |
|---|---|---|
| SHA-256 hash published | 2 of 2 installers ship a SHA-256 hashWithout a published hash there is no way to prove the file you downloaded is the file the publisher built. | 30 / 30 |
| Binary provenance | 2 on a recognised distribution platformThe strongest signal against a repackaged installer: the file should come from the publisher, not from a mirror nobody vouches for. | 29.8 / 35 |
| Served over HTTPS | 2 of 2 over HTTPSAn installer fetched over plain HTTP can be modified in transit. | 15 / 15 |
| Release recency | last release about 5 months agoSoftware that has not shipped in years accumulates unpatched vulnerabilities. | 15 / 15 |
| Licence declared | Mostly GPLv2, with some subcomponents licensed differently.A declared licence tells you what you are actually allowed to do with the software. | 5 / 5 |
Old versions of MAME1 with hashes
The version history of MAME, each release with the download URL the publisher declared at the time and the SHA-256 to check it against. Useful when an update breaks something and you need to downgrade to a build that worked.
We do not host any of these files and never re-upload them, which is the difference between this and an old-version download site.

Publishers take old builds offline without warning, so a link here can stop working even though the hash stays correct forever. If you already have the file, the hash is what matters: it tells you whether what you have is what they published.
