Re: SD card structure Windows 7 and missing GB

The Fix worked ! Thanks so much again. The next hurdle is 2 player button doesn’t seem to work in many games. Especially my favorites such as Cyber-lip, Simpson’s and TMNT. It does work in 2 player fighting games such as SF2..... So the P1 start & B1 gets the credits. But P2 start, even with credits...

Re: SD card structure Windows 7 and missing GB

Very excited. It all boots up and no duplicate roms so far, about 4,700 😬

But have the Joystick shortcuts changed in 3.84 release ?

If I hold 1p down it closes the game back to game menu.

1p start + P1B1 does nothing. No credit 🥺

1p start + down still pauses

1p start + P1B6 Mame menu

Re: SD card structure Windows 7 and missing GB

Thanks for the quick reply. Is there a rom set name I could search that gives a good selection of games. I’m not after perfect emulation, I just want a good selection of roms that actually work ! Can you add to the FAQ or post here which emulator goes with which rom folder ? I never seem to know whe...

SD card structure Windows 7 and missing GB

So Somehow the SD card you've sent with the hardware has become corrupt so I'm starting again with a larger card. When I Flash the 64GB SD with the ARpiCADE 3.84 img file (using Etcher) all seems well, but then Windows 7 (64bit) only shows as 3.47gb. I have the MAME2003_Reference_Set_MAME0.78_ROMs s...

Re: Simpsons Rom

Well just answered my own question in my continued learning about the weird world of MAME. Had to have both above mentioned ROMs in one folder. I stuck both in all of the emulators and it works in at least one ! So now I’m not sure if that’s what’s referred to as a parent ROM ? How many other ROMs h...

Simpsons Rom

Any advise on why 'The Simpsons' won't run in any emulator ? Rom size seems very small for the recommended ROM ('simpsn2p' 245kb). I've put it in all the Rom folders, it shows up in the list in some of them, but never loads. I've tried various other versions ('simpsons' 2.36mb - whiich I think it 4 ...

Re: Latest rom compatibilty list

I'm sorry for what is a very noob question, but when I download a rom, how do I know which version of mame it is ? I'm not even sure if I'm asking the right question here ! So, as an example, if I download nbajam.zip from X website, the rom compatibility list says it will work best if I put it in th...
