Hi All, have ended up here by following the below instructions, i am a bit confused though, point 5, do i need to download all the update packs from mame-001 to mame-099u9 or just the pack 0197 to match the full rom pack i downloaded?
Thanks
MAME ROMS DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS AND CONFIGURATION TIPS
- Download the ROMs you need using
either Option 1 orOption 2. - Move the downloaded ROM packages to your MAME ROMs directory or drive.
- If you went with Option 1: do not unzip compressed files within the cloned directories.
- If you went with Option 2
- Extract the downloaded files. Windows users will need 7zip to unzip the packages properly.
- The extracted files are themselves in zipped/compressed format. Do not unzip these files.
- Download update packs (If needed. See Update Packs above) and unzip them into your ROMs location. Update the MAME ROM directories to add the location of the new update pack. You can use a ROM manager to combine ROM packs, or not use a ROM manager and leave the packs unmixed.
- Download packages from the MAME Extras section.
- Keep the main ROMs and the Software Lists in folders of their own. Again, after the first unzip the unzipped packages will contain more zipped packages which should be left zipped.
- Keep the Extras, Video Snaps and CHDs in their own folders.
