Newbie question about mame version and romset to use
-
@PetroRie , I did rebuild the roms using clrmamepro.
As it was not working, I figured out how to get a 0.106 romset. Now, more roms are launching, others don't...I really miss playing wonderboy on my cabinet :/

we'll get you there :) but we need more information. what specific rom (filename) isn't working? on what emulator? is it a parent? are your roms split/merged/non-merged? any error messages in /tmp/runcommand.log?

Hey all. I am new to this as well, I have retro pie setup and all my games except for the arcade roms. There is so much documentation, I'm unsure of where to start. I will be using MAME 0.37b5 , I believe I downloaded the correct rom set, but from that point I'm not sure what to do. I know the files get placed into the Arcade folder, but do I place the whole zip in there or does each rom need to be unzipped?

@jseibert81 Put the individual game zips in the folder.

@jseibert81 Once you have done that restart Emulation Station and the ROMs should appear in the Aracde system gamelist. Launch one, Hit the A button the get into the runcommand screen and select the default emulator as
lr-imame4allthis is the version of MAME that runs the 0.37b5 ROM set.
