Just make sure you have a MAME rom set that matches the MAME version you're using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, that's exactly not how MAME works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sting Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The (hash) folder gives you your system name, and then just Google the latest MAME BIOS files and they will be pre named in a (.zip) file that matches the name of the system (.xml) Done a GX4000 setup video, will be posting it later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In which I still can't get adventure vision to work. I got atari 5200, arcadia and mega duck systems to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have fought with the new MAME core with /mame/mess all week. And have gotten no closer to making this work. Whenever I attempt to load a rom in RA it just closes. When I link everything through RL it extracts my rom and closes. I dont even see RA load for a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the file/folder paths are the same in which ever version you use, and we obviously take the (hash) folder from the PC version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
