      I will try here in ES.
      But I think both work on my side.

      Edit:
      .zip works for me.

          Now it works for me with .zip. I deleted everything and restart from scratch and now it works

              @folly I've got everything loaded that's a cart.

              All 13 games start and run using "lr-mess-systemapfm100-cart" and a BIOS file that has
              apf_4000.rom
              basic_80.rom
              basic_68.rom

              Only issue I had was Sapce Detroyers says "rocket Patrol" as the title and the graphics are a mess.

              Other than that, everything worked as .zip files

              nevermind... I see what you wrote up there about this game needing extra ram.

              I've got everything working now. Easy install as well. My controller works, but does not fire. I'll keep playing with this and see where it gets me. Like you said, it's a bit strange that Space Destroyers requires a seperate path that is nothing like the rest. I hope that can be changed to the same as everything else.

                If I remember correctly Sega Model 2 needs many resources from the host computer.
                I doubt it will work on the pi.

                  With MAME, maybe yes with a X86 build but not for Lr-MESS. Lr-Mess only covers non-arcade games

                      More information :
                      https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Sega_Model_2

                      Not sure which system name it is using, but this documentation states that using mame is a bad choice.

                        Already tested. It doesn't work

                        For SEGA arcade "3D":

                        Model3 see https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/26909/sega-model-3-segamodel3
                        SEGA System 32 : lr-fbneo
                        NAOMI and Atomiswave : lr-flycast

                          According the table, only Motor Raid and Rail Chase 2 seems to work with MAME

                              You can use the game-specific lines to create per game settings for the keyboard or joystick. We could even share them if we want.

                              Like you said, it's a bit strange that Space Destroyers requires a seperate path that is nothing like the rest. I hope that can be changed to the same as everything else.

                              If you know how it works then it's not so strange.
                              Basically the default system we install doesn't have the added ram and it just loads the roms/media directly without using the hash-table database..
                              Extra cartridge information is in the hash-table database and not used in the above situation.
                              With the test line it will use the hash table because the loading process is based upon hash-table database loading the information against the software filename.
                              Hope you understand this explanation.

                                @dteam in the description of the test mame 0.192 was used, perhaps with the latest version it works

                                    I have no idea what you're talking about... lol.. but it really sounds good!

                                    What is the hash table? I've got it running like you said and I'll work with it fine. If you wouldn't mind posting your per game config, that would be helpful I'm sure.

                                    Thanks!

                                      Well.. no one can really tell you where to go for roms... you will/can banned for even asking, it's one of the rules... please adhere to it. This is the 2nd time you asked.... but... I can say this.

                                      Archives hold a lot of things you might want. Using a mame version like .236 and searching for an archive will probably get you there. Keep in mind, a lot of the games are tied in to a massive list.

                                      You can also search for each system by the name of the system and look for roms. Best I can do without getting myself into trouble. I really like this forum and I want to stay on it. LOL.

                                        @jamrom2 one moment i didn't ask roms. I have all roms for mame. what do you say? I asked where can I find the preview images for emulationstation. i never asked for roms.
                                        I do not speak English. maybe I made mistakes in the translation.
                                        All right?

                                          @isidoro80 totally understood. Not sure what you mean by "image" then.

                                          Do you mean a picture of the system?

                                          "Where can i find image for game apfm1000, apple 2 and applegs? I scan roms of this emulators with arrm but it find few image"

                                          I don't know what you're looking for then. The BIOS files? They are treated like ROM files. No one an tell you exactly where they are.

                                          Explain a little more and maybe I can help.

                                            OK, I moved on to the TRS-80.
                                            I'm not having any luck getting it to display in ES using your script. I have the trs80m3 and all others bios files placed in \BIOS and \BIOS\mame.

                                            Roms are in \home\roms\trs-80

                                            Am I missing something?
                                            Dragon 32 works BTW... so not sure I named something wrong working with the TRS-80 setup.
