Display only working roms on MAME

[mexicocity]

Everything works when I choose MAME through Hyperspin but on the list there are some clones I downloaded to make some games work. How do I hide these clones and the bios ie neogeo, snk?

I have tryed opening MAME xml through notepad and deleting the description of the clones but when I do this some games I havn't deleted dissapear when opening Hyperspin/MAME.

Can anybody help?

thanks

Open mame in Mameui32fx or similar mame gui,

-in the folders section, select "available".

-then right click on "available"and select\add filters, "non-working", "no-clones"

-then left click the mamegui file tab and at the bottom select create roms text file.

-copy contents to the clipboard and upload to Hyperion website to create a database.

-Download and save to HyperSpin\Databases\Mame\Mame-Filtered.xml

-Select "G" default genre key in hyperSpin\mame wheel to see the Mame-Filtered wheel.

or

to make that list pop up first,

-rename the original mame.xml to Mame-ALL.xml and rename the Mame-Filtered.xml to Mame.xml

(name the xmls to whatever you want but Mame.xml will be the first wheel to pop-up always)

You can create a 'working' rom only list. Might what to have a read through This Thread. Also when you edit your xml in notepad, make sure not to delete any tags you need.

hmmhm everyone mentions this hyperion site that doesn't work anymore... is there a tool to make a filtered xml these days?

I found the tool for the job!

"Hyperspin rom & media manager" let's you filter out clones and a lot of other things!
