Hello again!
Now that I have AttractMode, MAME and robospin working really well I'd like to set up some consoles and computers to launch from AttractMode and emulate with MAME.
I've been able to get AttractMode to work with separate emulators (Like Stella for the Atari 2600), but I would like to use the emulation in MAME.
I think that my biggest issue is that all of my roms are in a single directory, so that my TRS-80 roms are mixed with the Arcade roms and my C64 roms, etc. I'm really hoping that I don't have dig through the roms directory and take out the roms that I want to list separately.
Can AttractMode differenciate between Arcade roms and computer roms and console roms?
One reason that I'm asking is that, for example, I have a TRS80.zip rom file. I can run it if I use the command line "mame TRS80" and it works. It does NOT appear in AttractMode when I'm scrolling through my MAME arcade games. Why is this rom different from from an arcade rom?
So, in short, Can I set up a "Computers" emulator in AttractMode using MAME without having to separate my rom files?
Thanks!
