You haven't included the error.
That's where it stops and returns back to the mingw64 command line prompt
That's great, but you still haven't included the actual error itself. You're doing a multi-core build, the compile error could be multiple hundreds of lines further up from what you've actually posted.
Unless their is a log that is generated this is all i can provide. I have never encounter this error
Yes, there is literally a log of the compilation sitting right now in your command-line window. You only need to scroll up to see what the actual error is. If you are incapable of doing this, then perhaps it is ill-advised for you to be compiling your own versions of MAME, and you should stick with the versions that are shipped monthly.
Thanks I will attempt again and let you know.
After another attempt I went through the output and the only error messages i am seeing are makefile:1062: recipe for target 'windows_x64' failed make: *** [windows_x64] Error 2
This didn't happen with .0211.
I am going to try to use the zip source instead of the windows only version

I have a working mame64.exe build but its 1.7GB. it never finished the linking step and it has been 24 hours.
If you have a working mame64.exe build, then obviously it did finish the linking step. Otherwise, how do you know that the EXE is working?
If you're compiling your own version of MAME, you're expected to have the ability to do at least some basic diagnostics on your own build setup. Why exactly are you compiling your own version anyway, rather than just going with the stock binaries, if you clearly have so much trouble compiling MAME when so many other people have no issues?
This is the first time I have ran into this issues and I usually build an arcade only version. I have received positive help in the past.

All good thank you.
it never finished the linking step and it has been 24 hours.
try to disable your anti-virus software, some them is known cause of significantly increase linking time.
I have been compiling MAME since 0192 and not I experiencing issues.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
