You are able to boot them but you struggle too with the keys or joystick buttons ?

They don't start either. Which line do you use when you select your emulator line from the blue menu? I am always on "Rocket Patrol" no matter what the game is.

We talk about apfm1000, right.
I use this :
default = "mame-system-apfm1000-cart"

Yes, I'll do more test today

@dteam

Do you want my sha1sums ?

@folly
Yes please (sorry double messages)

@folly
Yes, please. I don't know what's wrong for that emulator.

I'm up and running with just the pack-in game Rocket Patrol. I did like you did, just made a dummy .zip file. All good.

Just can't seem to locate the rest of them. .236?

@jamrom2

Something to read :
https://docs.mamedev.org/techspecs/luaengine.html

Here is the reference manual of lua 5.3 :

I think they are in ~~mame_sl~~, if you understand what I mean.

Fix, get the apfimag_cass.zip, it's in : mame-sl

MESS and MAME: The Guide

@dteam

I have spacedst.zip running with the new test method.
In the hash table it describes that this cart has extra ram on board.
Using the new test method it runs the file using the softlist and adds the ram extension automatically.
Bios file apfm1000.zip has to be added in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/apfm1000 for now.
I hope we can come up with a nice fix for this problem.

It runs by using this line in /opt/retropie/configs/apfm1000/emulators.cfg :
mame-driver-rompath-basename = "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame apfm1000 -rompath /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/apfm1000 -v -c %BASENAME%"

Keyboard keys to play :

Why apple2gsr1 in the line

Folly

@dteam

Oops a mistake ;-), fixet it ! (updated)
This is because I also did tests with that line on apple2gsr1 just picked the wrong one.

I will read some, perhaps some interesting stuff to find.

@folly

Strange, those lines work with .bin and not .zip

mame-system-apfm1000-cart-autoframeskip = "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -rompath /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/apfm1000 -v -c -autoframeskip -ui_active apfm1000  -cart %ROM%"
mame-system-apfm1000-cart = "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -rompath /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/apfm1000 -v -c -ui_active apfm1000 -cart %ROM%"

@dteam

I will try here in ES.
But I think both work on my side.

Edit:
.zip works for me.

Yup.. sniffed it out. Thanks! I'll get it loaded and see where I'm at.

Now it works for me with .zip. I deleted everything and restart from scratch and now it works
