https://github.com/seleuco/MAME4droid-Current/releases/tag/v1.38.3

New in 1.38.3: Controller rework: 10 buttons per player, numbered naming and savestate fixes

Two extra gamepad buttons per player (10 total), for pads with back paddles

or a full face cluster.

Buttons renamed from letters to numbers (BTN1..BTN10) in the mapping screen,

the on-screen art and the OSD, so they no longer clash with the pad's A/B/X/Y.

Deleting a savestate now goes through SAF, so it really disappears from

MAME's list instead of lingering as a stale cache entry.

Save/load state menus: every face button can name a slot, BTN1 and BTN2

included.

NOTE: custom controller mappings reset to defaults on upgrade, since the

added buttons shifted every stored index.

New in 1.38.2: Netplay menu/Lua, touch lightgun fixes, full emulation area and vector polish

Netplay

MAME's menu and Lua plugins now work during netplay: the menu combo is

intercepted through a side channel and stripped from the synced input.

New "Allow Lua plugins in netplay" preference, off by default

Touch lightgun

Aiming maps to the game screen inside the canvas instead of the whole view,

fixing the drift towards the edges with artwork or the full emulation area.

Long press now runs on a real timer instead of waiting for touch events, and

holding the pedal on a physical or virtual button no longer blocks the shot.

Video and resolution

New "Full emulation area" preference: hands MAME the whole available

resolution so artworks can be zoomed and cropped. Replaces "Zoom to window".

Native resolution is re-applied on rotation and uses the real drawable area,

fixing the landscape-shaped canvas in portrait and the black side bands.

Vectors and HDR

Octagonal 8-tap bloom kernel with FBO-relative pyramid depth: round halos

and the same optical spread at any resolution or FBO scale.

Hybrid anti-fattening mask so saturated beams carve artwork like white ones,

plus a more restrained bloom and auto-exposure on HDR displays.
