sandman7793 Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Because with each release of mame, you need updated mame roms. Either redownload a set that matches your mame version or rebuild with clrmame. A boy stuck in a mans body
Polemicist Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 You have to remember what MAME actually is. With each new version of the MAME executable it is able to emulate more machines and at the same time improvements are made to current machines that may have had issues or required tweaks. But not only are the EXE files changed so are the ROM and CHD files as new dumps get generated and all that good stuff. If you have a version of MAME that is matched in number to a version of the MAME ROM and CHD files and it is working perfectly then leave it alone. If you want more MAME games to play with then update your ROM, CHD and EXE files.
joe rock Posted December 4, 2013 Author Posted December 4, 2013 actualy i use the latest version of mame 151 so i guess i will have to install an older version because i might not be skilled enough to update my roms myself ... thanks for all the infos guys , if you have any other ideas for me please let me know . thanks
sandman7793 Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Ya, re-download a updated set, around 28gb for a trimmed set. Little over 8000 roms. A boy stuck in a mans body

sandman7793 Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Google PleasureDome. Download Romset and download CHD set and if you are fussy like me grab the Extras pack. All are free downloads. Seed to get ratio before you download more stuff that's not free or you will get kicked. Enjoy Pole use cation posting PD in open forum, against the rules. I already pm'ed him. Just a heads up.
