![]() ![]() OK thx for the link, I installed MAMEUI64 (setting the audit option in MAME64 still didn't cause audit game to come up as a right click option).and it is a confusing mess. The game Birdie King 3 is a mystery as this game uses no Bios or Device and has no clones, so this should work ok. Killer Instinct uses a CHD so maybe this is missing, or else the parent is missing and you've kept a clone instead. The game Afterburner doesn't use any Bios or Device, but it's a clone of Afterburner II, so maybe the parent is missing. The game Astrochase uses the Max-A-Flex Bios (maxaflex.zip) and you may be missing this. If I understand correctly you grabbed a full MAME 185 romset and then reduced it to the games you want and discarded the rest.įrom a quick glance it looks like you may have multiple issues.Ī number of your listed games use the QSound device (qsound.zip) and maybe this is missing. Positive it was a full set of roms, not updates.I deleted all my old roms too OK thanks I'll have to try auditing them when I have time This is done for overall file size and bandwidth reasons. You would need to use a tool like clrmamepro to combine the update rom pack into your old rom set. The update game.zip file would only contain the updated 2.zip. ![]() Then an update for game.zip came out with an updated 2.rom file they don't put all 4. Update packs only contain updated rom files within the actual rom zip file.įor example if you looked inside game.zip you would see a bunch of files such as If it was an update pack and you just copied them into your Mame roms folder then I got some bad news for you. I should ask though, did you download a full set or an update pack ? Right click and there should be an "audit" option in the menu, click that and it should say if the rom is ok or if there is a problem with a missing file and what file it is expecting to find that file in.īios files for Mame go right in the folder with all your Mame roms. Yeah if using the UI version of Mame open it up and find the game you are having troubles with. &was there just a folder to put bios files in & it would be a matter of me finding ones I need & placing them in there to get certain games to work? Sorry I used to know this stuff a LONG time ago, but bad memory haha & it was MAME64 I'm pretty sure, so running an audit in that should tell me reasons for roms not working? If there is a problem it will tell you in the command prompt window what it is looking for and cannot find. If using the command line version open up a command window and go to your Mame folder and type in:Īs an example, just replace sf2 to the name of the zip file for the rom you are having trouble with. If you want to check what could be causing the issue of a game not loading you can audit the rom if using the UI version of Mame. You didn't say which version of Mame you are using. It only becomes a Launchbox configuration issue if no games are loading at all.īut since you mentioned Capcom games like Street Fighter there was a change in Mame 186 where you need an updated Qsound.zip bios file. More often than not if you are having troubles with certain games not working in Mame it is a missing parent or bios file. ![]()
