Title: [Resolved] Romlist last version MAME 0.217?
Post by: manzarek on January 16, 2020, 04:57:11 AM
Hi guys, can any good soul share the romlist of the latest version of mame 0.217?
unfortunately I have tried to create the romlist in various ways, but the drafting is wrong, here is an example.

wrong
Code: [Select]
88games;'88 Games;mame;;1988;Konami;;4;0;only_buttons,only_buttons,only_buttons,only_buttons;good;1;raster;;;;3
I need it this way, Category name
Code: [Select]
88games;'88 Games;Mame;;1988;Konami;Track & Field;;;;;0;;;;;

various unsuccessful attempts.

Category is a side project, not part of mame. You need to import catver.ini.

Take those threads you linked to with a grain of salt. That whole confusion was likely due to some one using a poorly modified version of mame. Always use official or one that you know exactly whats patched. Even those widely known pi images is full of crap.

Here is the answer to my question http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=2091.msg14323#msg14323

I went close, but we are not there yet, this is how I generated the romlist now... >:(
Code: [Select]
1941j;1941j;Mame;;;;Shooter / Flying Vertical;;;;;;;;;;
we are far from this
Code: [Select]
1941j;1941: Counter Attack (Japan);Mame;1941;1990;Capcom;Shoot-'Em-Up;;;;;0;;;;;
is it possible that there isn't someone who has the same problem as me?

I finally succeeded, ;D I was wrong perhaps because of the haste to conclude, but the answer lies here http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=421.msg2911#msg2911 and here http://attractmode.org/docs/Readme.html
quick and easy.
