Mike-

Excellent...

How did you create your romlist? My romlist doesn't have any zip ext. But, I typically import using xml files. Though, building with the gui shouldn't make any difference. Maybe, its the way mame4all generates its list. 

All your roms, media, configs etc... I would put somewhere on /home/pi like below:

However, you want to organize it. I do something like this:

/home/pi/media/mame/snaps
/home/pi/roms/mame

mame4all if I recall was different than libretro or advanced mame when it came to generating a list.

Libretro 2003 is looking pretty good thus far on the rpi3. Might need to try 2010, also.

I had mk3 and street fighter alpha at 59.9 fps on my rpi3 with libretro 2003.

advmame is still a problem because of SDL1.
someone needs to port it to sdl2.

I took my .106 rom collection & downgraded it to .78.

Still can't get shaders to work though.
Wondering if it's because of my power issue.
