Don't I need some .nut scripts to do this?

I'm focusing on classics 80's arcade games for now.
Can't drop box handle that big of a file?
Send me a link to m i k e . m o e n i n g @ goo-gle mail .c o m
You'll have to remove the spaces and replace that last part with gmail.com
Thanks!
Send me the themes and stuff too. I'm totally in the dark about all that too!

So there's lots of stuff in this thread.
Where do I download the new Hyperspin theme/layout and other parts?
How do I get started?

omegaman,
What files should go where for mame?
You said to put roms in /home/pi/mame/roms directory?
Where does mame.cfg go?
If I start splitting things up I just want to know where to put them.

Yes that would be awesome!! Give me whatever you got.
Does it have the cool sounds like Hyperspin when you switch games?

I solved it!!
The attract software adds a ".zip" extension to the ROM file when it auto builds the ROM list from the MAME files.
When I take out the .zip for all the roms in the list it works great!

./mame in a terminal works great. The UI comes up and games can play.
See previous post. Added contents of the attract terminal stuff.
mame was downloaded and copied over.
I can run games directly from mame just fine.

Yeah I know its not windows...
Took out the .exe
No dice.
I tried launching a game 10 times in a row really fast in attract mode.
I think there is popup in the background that says:
"This file "mame" is an executable. Are you sure you want to execute it?"
That might be a red herring.
When I launch attract via terminal and try to load a game I noticed a command window in the back which says:
usr/local/bin $ attract

My setup is Raspbian Jessie created from NOOBs installer.
I'm using Mame4All-Pi
Attract mode was compiled and installed using these instructions:
https://github.com/mickelson/attract/wiki/Compiling-on-the-Raspberry-Pi-%28Raspbian-Jessie%29
Attract.exe is located at:
/usr/local/bin/attract.exe
The attract mode settings are in:
/home/pi/.attract/
The default user appears to be "pi" which auto logs on for me when it boots.

I moved mame to here (it was fun with access denied permission issues!):
/usr/local/share/mame/
Which I "think" is more standard.
The same problem exists. Launching a game doesn't work. Black screen then back to attract mode in less than 1 second.
executable /usr/local/share/mame/mame.exe
args "[name]"
rompath /usr/local/share/mame/roms
romext .zip;.7z;<DIR>
system Arcade
info_source listxml
artwork flyer
artwork marquee /usr/local/share/mame/marquees
artwork snap /usr/local/share/mame/videos;/usr/local/share/mame/snap
artwork wheel
Is there a debug mode or something for attract mode that I can use to figure this out?
I'm donating this for a school fundraiser on Saturday. So I need it working ASAP.
Thanks!

Adding ./ before the binary did not help.
So where would mame "normally" live?
I'll just move it around.
I'm a 100% newbie to the pi 3 and to raspian.

I ended up compiling the Attract.exe from sources.
It wasn't horrible.

Did you get the "hyperspin" like layout working?
Where can I get that from?
