Following up to what Phantasy was inquiring.
This package contains over 22,000
xml files. It genuinely seems like a tremendously valuable resource. Cherry picking 1, 2, or even 20 feels like I'm not taking advantage of this amazing repository of knowledge, and given the overwhelming number of MAME games there are it sincerely would be very helpful if we could utilize them all.
Is there anyway I can use them all?
Similar to how they are organized in folders in the download package, it would be amazing if we could navigate that structure from the UI. Is it possible?
While I agree this is a tremendous, tremendous resource, I think you're kinda missing the objective when asking about using them all at once.
As a very crude analogy, here is what the lists are:
List One:
A
List Two:
A
B
List Three:
A
B
C
Using all those lists serves no purpose, other than repitition. YOu'll be better served to use the Genre wheels that best suit your needs, and the multiplayer wheels that best serve your needs, plus the main database that best serves your needs. I might be missing one or two applications, but using them all at once would only confuse you and anyone else that tried to use the setup. You'd never remember what wheel things were on

How hard would it be to do the same thing for HBMAME?
-
Is it just me or are Baseball/Working Games/ and Basketball/Working Games now missing the XML in the latest 0.176 upload?
-
MY FAULT. I must be slipping in my old age. My ROM path was still pointing to 160. Sorry guys. Boooooo this man!
-
Hmm. I did the same thing. Which DAT file did you use to build the rom set? The one from PD?

(0.176)

Hmmm. Any reason I'd be missing so many roms? I'm using the official split set from PD and your MAME Working full list:

Or, better question, when the catver is typically released? I see nplayers is available already
-
i've made an automatic script that use catver.ini (http://www.progettosnaps.net/catver/) to keep all the genre exept thoses that contains :
Paddle,Electromechanical,Utilities,Game Console,Print Club,Multi-cart Board,Machine,Business Computer,Pocket Computer Games,Terminal Games,Notebook,PDA Games,ComputerPhone Games,Workstation,DVD Reader,SCSI Controller,Barcode Printer,Astrological Computer,Drum Machine,Gambling Board,Audio Sequencer,Portable Media Player,Mobile Phone,Development Computer,Electronic Game,Home Computer,Kit Computer,Matrix Printer,Microcomputer,Punched Card Computer,Single Board Computer,Synthesiser,Training Board,Cash Counter,Clock,Document Processors,Electronic Typewriter,EPROM Programmer,Graphics Display Controller,Network Processor,Printer Handbook,Satellite Receiver,Speech Synthesiser,Word-processing Machine,Handheld Child Computers,Dot-Matrix Display,Test ROM,3D Printer,Graphic Tablet,In Circuit Emulator,DVD Player,Robot Control,Thermal Printer,VTR Control.
my actual script (mame0.175 full lists) use the command : mame -listxml >mamexml.txt
then i ' ve made filters for machines from this list and check for each filtered machines the genre from catver.ini (that not contains the system list) then write the xml
I will try to set different order :
check for all machine from catver.ini (that not contains the system list) the machine tag from mamexml.txt then write the xml
i think that on this order there will be more results because of less filters.
( but the chd will still not appears because they are not listed on catver.ini )
I will made a test with the mame 0.175 and check the results.If all is ok i will use this method to next release (mame 0.176)
My script also use nplayer.ini (http://nplayers.arcadebelgium.be/) so i need to wait for both files to create all lists.
