you go on a site like pleasuredome download the torrent join it into the same folder as your old roms and then it will check and get to about at least 98% then it wlll download the last chunk from there it will seed you need good ratio for that site but the mame sets are usually free

Tried this last night and it basically erased 90% of my roms. I've done this before and it worked fine. Have the rom sets changed that dramatically? I'll give it another go tonight and see if I can get it to work.

By the way, isn't GLSL the same as HLSL? Why would I want to change?

Yes it is and it has been available for other versions of Mame for some time.

I heard from joe35car that it was better, how much better I don't know yet.

I suppose if your gpu doesn't suppose directx, that may be a reason to use it?

I did ask if the HyperLaunch guys had plans to implement it, but got a frosty response. I'll only be trying it outside of HyperSpin initially anyway.

You may have picked merged vs split or something? Is your set ZIP or 7z?

Anyway, take an afternoon and learn how to use CLRMAMEPRO http://mamedev.emulab.it/clrmamepro/

Makes updating sets to new versions really fast, and you audit your roms against the exact MAME.EXE you are using - so you'll know they match.

Finally updated my set but now I always have a message saying "There are known problems with this Game". I checked no nag and it doesn't get rid of this. I'm using MameUIFX. I've searched and seems to be a popular topic with no real fix other than some weird stuff about compiling my own version of mame.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

PS: Never mind! Jumstiles had what I was looking for.

I've made a small tool in JAVA for generating your own database from MAME.

You will need MAME exe file, CatList.ini and languages.ini files to make it work.

You can select some options in this tool to fit your needs.

Let me know if you like it and if you find some bugs !

HSDBMameTool-0.6.jar

Impressing! You should create a new thread about your tool! Very nice, and with Java!

Indeed. That is awesome and so much easier then before.

Although, I did uncheck "Adult" and still got a bunch of (example)

<genre>Ball & Paddle / Breakout * Adulti *</genre>

Thanks for your feedbacks.

Which mame version did you use ?

EDIT: ok, I've got it, if you use english CatList.ini file, it should work.

I will try tmrw to give you a more international version ;)

Not easy, I'm french, I live in Luxembourg, I did it in English, and I've missed Italian compatibility :shot:
