@ibonihs I have Elevation Action Returns working in AdvMAME v0.94 though I wouldn't say the audio is 100%. Not sure which version you are using but the audio is poor in v1.4.

I have NBA Jam and Mortal Kombat running without issue in mame4all-pi.

MK2 and Shinobi run fine in lr-Mame2003. It's worth re-testing with the right PSU.

@jwilson

Assuming that you were using the 0.78 dat file, it should have been fine. It's a total cop-out suggestion, but you may just want to download the "MAME 2003 Reference Set" and get the ROMs from there.

@mat03111984 said in emulation in shops:

such a shame that there not a place where people can relive them for free

Weeelll, when you put it like that, I am reminded of an exception, should you happen to live in the United States. A certain website was granted exemption from the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act and is allowed to possess and even cache games to be played directly from a browser. You can also download games and even whole collections of games without worry of violating copy protection, so long as you don't redistribute the games, or make them available for public play afterward.

So, as it currently stands, if your business resides in the US and you offered up the ability to play the games via their web-based cache format, I don't believe any laws would be broken at all. This would effectively allow a makeshift internet arcade to exist where people could gather to relive these games for free, legally. What's more is that when Kodi v18 is released with their RetroPlayer media layer, an addon will also be available to stream and scrape these games from the website, allowing an almost unlimited game library to be searched, browsed and played as if they all existed on your system without the need to take up any significant local storage space.

All in all, it really is a great time to be a retro-gamer.

@derebo You can enter the menu on a keyboard initially, and then under Input (general) the first item is Config Menu which can be changed to a joypad button

Note that lr-mame2003 is a better mame emulator for the rpi3 though (Supports more games) - along with lr-fbalpha

I'm a big fan of the arcade folder. I like keeping everything in one area

Awesome! If I have this issue again, I will check the exit mapping in those files. Thanks guys. Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays!

Ah! Found it! Thanks guys

@Kristopherson05 You have duplicated your question. You have asked this in this thread:
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/5145/escape and you still don't provide ALL the information as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

misc_safequit = no

Where have you added this? What guide did you follow (if any) and have you posted the config to pastebin so that it can be inspected?

P.S. I have just read through some of your previous posts since July and numerous people have continually pointed you to read the https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first yet it looks like you still haven't done so. Don't be surprised if your posts go ignored if you continue to ask random questions without providing the required information or taking the time to search this forum first.

@DeFect83 they might be the roms that have every version of one game all in one zip file. That is why this usually happens.

@fastfalcon94 use the search function on this forum. It's been answered at least 5 times already

@d8thstar Just a thought. . .What about the possibility that you are modifying the gamelists while Emulation Station is running? Have you tried putting the file into your ROMs directory while ES is not running? Then starting up and seeing if it picks up the list?

Also, where exactly are you putting the XML file? Notes above have suggested "the ROMs folder" but for you, since you are mounting an external volume, that probably means /mnt/MAME106/roms/ right?

So I'm better off using lr-mame2003 and roms from .78 romset?

thank you both for your responses. I did read those wiki articles, but obviously I don't understand exactly what they are saying. Seems like there is a LOT of information, but I'm having trouble deciphering it.

@meleu argh! I'm visiting relatives for Christmas otherwise I'd rise to your Pang! Challenge right away!

Nice score, I will have another go at Pang! soon!

Thank you @herb_fargus Great support and feedback. Appreciated.

@dankcushions >the docs are synced to the wiki... at some point.

They should be synced automatically ish. At least much quicker than once a week. :)

@chunger I have the same doubt about this issue, what have you done?

Almost made it to lvl 8, did not have another potion for the sorcerers on lvl 6, so had to go straight for the exit instead of heading NW for the potion there. If you have a potion, you can get a potion...

Concerning number of ROMS:
my list includes 4714, so if ClrMamePro states 4720 it should be easy to find the 6 missing ones by comparing. Or maybe I just missed some of the BIOS files to be removed (actual game roms should be 4705 according to @markwkidd ).
