Ready the MAME 0.191 update of "progetto-SNAPS".
• It's available this https://mega.nz/#F!yEQjzDRB!vwuXYPC5JZYGWeR6W3L03Q folder on Mega.co.nz that allows individually download files to update from version to version. The folder will be temporarily available until the next update.
• Review the "Original" category of "Artwork": two packages have been renamed (fantasyu) and (twsoc96) and those with strange suffixes ('_alt' or '-big') have been renamed and then moved to the most relevant "Original Others" category. Other packages without matching MAME machines, then obsolete, have been removed. Added 26 new artwork for handheld games; lay files were provided by hap and backgrounds by Sean Riddle, R. Coltrane and ChoccyHobNob. Also added 25 new (and 5 updated) "WS" artwork packs and 1 "Alternate" (thanks to Comboman).
• Continues the great work of reviewing the "Marquees", with a lot of images at 1200px in place of the old ones at 500px; I also did a repack of the whole category. Another thanks to J. Modlin for the web research.
• Added a good number of previously unsupported software list snaps: alphatro_cart, alphatro_flop, apple3, dragon_cass, gamate, glcolor, h21, ibm5150 (preliminary pack), pc98, pofo, snotec, spectrum_cass (preliminary pack) and uzebox. Added more than 4,000 new snaps!
• About gamate snap set: Haze made improvements to this driver the day after I did the pictures... :( For this reason, the predominant color is white instead of green. As soon as possible I will fix it.
• Many pngs in various categories have been replaced because they have no MAME chunks or are bad. "ArtPreview", "Ends", "HowTo", "Logo", "Versus" and "Warning" are now ok.
• The next update is scheduled for Sunday, December 17, 2017.
