      @joelf there are no updated roms for 0.78. the only set that will work is the 0.78 set. if you get a newer set, and rebuild to 0.78 (which won't work unless you have the reverse pack or whatever it's called) you will only end up with an identicle 0.78 set

        @dankcushions @joelf It's called the "rollback" set. There is usually one for every ROMset, but it may be worse than that, as a rollback may only allow rolling back to the previous set--unless rollbacks always contain the complete rollback history to the beginning of MAME (which would get pretty big). I don't have the experience with using the utility, as I never could get it to do what I wanted (probably because of a combination of bad/incomplete source files and not knowing what I was doing). It might be that you need every rollback set all the way to the version you are trying to rebuild for a perfect conversion.

        <EDIT> I did a quick search and it looks like rollback sets are supposed to contain all of the changed files from previous sets. So, armed with a recent, complete set and its corresponding rollback, you should be able to rebuild any previous set if you have a DAT file for it.

          @joelf So, it is my understanding that you can select multiple input sets along with the DAT for the desired output. You would select your .185 and the rollback set(s), plus the .78 DAT and if everything is perfect (and you carefully recite the proper incantations) you could get a .78 set. That's the theory anyway. I have never made it work correctly.

            If you can't find a rollback, you might be able to chip away at a set if you can find an earlier one. Straddling both the past and the future of a given set, you could feed CLRMAMEPRO most of the files it needs. Who wants all of those Mah Jong clones anyway!

              Hey now, each mahjong clone is a beautiful and unique snowflake.

                @caver01 I had joust 1 & 2 working fine on mame2003. I didn't see the other unfiltered tab on the workbook though. My thinking was wrong - I thought some games worked in one emu, but not in another. It's more likely that the dat files and compatibility lists I am using are the ones that need updating.

                  I use romlister to knock out unwanted roms.

                  I also make my arcade set to have the best versions of the 3 main libretro cores, I'm pretty anal about having it right. Lol

                        @SKIIERFOX86 Please don't ask where to acquire ROMs. That is the one piece of help you will not get here. CPS games are just part of the general MAME ROM sets.

                          @SKIIERFOX86 the first part of the question is not something you would ask or get an answer for here. Please read the forum rules.

                          As for the CPS question, I use FBA with considerable success.

                                    @SKIIERFOX86 Use lr-fbalpha which uses the 0.2.97.40 ROM set.

                                        haven't we been through this? fba and mame2003 run various capcom games. lr-falpha runs CPS1, 2 and 3. lr-mame2003 runs CSPS 1 and 2.

                                          @dankcushions Perhaps he means , "how to set up CPS 1/2/3 as their own systems"? @SKIIERFOX86 you need to manually create these within your theme. If you want to know how to do it you should search the forum as this has been covered extensively or start a new thread.
