      Hi All,

      I'm almost about to give up.

      I have RetroPie 4.1.5 and can't for the life of me get MAME working.

      I've gone right through the tutorial in the below link for assistance but no luck;
      https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/MAME

      Basically, i have all the required emulators installed within RetroPie main packages, i.e. mame4all, lr-imame4all and lr-mame2003 and advmame in optional packages.

      I have the full Mame4all 0.37b5 romset for RPi MAME4all

      When i drop a few of the roms as *.zips in the mame-mame4all folder on the roms folder on the Pi and restart emulationstation, MAME is not displayed as an option. What could i be doing wrong?
