MAME ROW #146 is live!

@jodiefoster No. They aren't. https://retropie.org.uk/docs/MAME/ You are much better off figuring out which rom set will cover your needs best and sticking with it.

You can use CLRMAME pro and dat files. It's free. https://mamedev.emulab.it/clrmamepro/ guide : https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Arcade

@SpudsMcToole And I know that it works, I just wanted to help you solving the puzzle in retrospective. 🔍🙂

MAME ROW #145 is live!

@thelostsoul oh no! This competition is getting heated!

Ok, Thanks! That worked first try

I'd also like to ask why does every DBZ fighting game suck monkey nuts?!? You would think it was the easiest genre to make a fighting game out of but it just tries to get too gimmicky and wind up feeling awkward.

@kwodkore I didn't mean to sound angry or irritated. Thank you for not "jumping down my throat". Sorry for seeming like a jack*** about it.

MAME ROW #142 is now live

Well m assuming you are referring to street fighter games. Pick 6 button(snes layout) or modern for these games. 8 button is specifically for an certain arcade panel layout. Classic layout is for 99% of other games that are wrong with this setup.

@Vega that you need to locate a MAME bios makes me think would benefit from the instructions here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Arcade in short, with the right full rom set for the right mame emulator, you should have no further dependences. all BIOS files will be part of the full set.

New emulators? Sega Model 2/3? Naomi/Atom?

i will try adding <theme>fighting</theme> hope this works. currently the home theme is set to carbon so do i change anything in emulationstation\themes\Carbon\theme name\FILENAME.svg.

@Jiryn said in Raspberry Pi 4 (and minor 3) Questions: Thank you, I was originally going off this page https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/MAME when it said 2003 was the best, most reliable for Pi 3. While the rest were experimental, or didn't have the best compatibility.

Yes. Some games you can manipulate by changing setting to 2 coins/1 credit if the game in question has that option, some do not. I have tried re-installing mame 2010/ 2003 but same outcome. Will probably do a fresh install now that the pi-4 is out anyway. Thanks for your input.

New high score!!! 208,400
