How do I get MAME32 to work?
What is wrong with it.
It could be a number of things.
Plz be more specific with your problem.
They are hot, aren't they??
You'll find the included ReadMe to be remarkably comprehensive.
Else we need a description of your problems.
well, sorry bout that. but every time i load a rom, it says that its missing something. the game is not loading. i dont know if need a bios or ini or what to run the emulator. do i have to download the ini to the system im running. i just dont know what im doing wrong
Ok, we had this same problem a few days back but the user concerned wouldn't play ball as far as diagnosing the problem was concerned
Ok:
1) Ensure you have the rom path configured correctly - if in doubt ensure you have the file you want to run (zipped up- not rared) in the roms directory of Mame32
2) Try and run the game you know you have (perhaps through the list of available games)
3) Either
a) game will work
b) game won't
If b) is the case, then copy the text where it says what roms it is missing (highlight and press ctrl c)
Then post that text here, usually the problem can be diagnosed - for example maybe you are missing the parent rom, or you are missing the BIOS files (needed for Neogeo for example).
You could also be trying to run Encrypted CPS2 roms without the relevant XOR table.
I understand. I'll try it again. Thanks man!
Oh and by the way, MAME 32 does not have a bios folder. So do I have to create one or is there a substitute?
You can put the Neogeo bios zipped up in the roms folder.
Thanks Dell, i'll give u a vote for your help
I did what u told me and it said the following:
Mame32 Error
ng-sfix.rom NOT FOUND
neo-geo.rom NOT FOUND
ng-sm1.rom NOT FOUND
ng-lo.rom NOT FOUND
ERROR: required files are missing, the game cannot be run.
Ah, sorry my bad. Copy the ROM you are playing into the roms folder also (in the same folder as the BIOS in my experience the emulator picks up the BIOS and it will work).
If not simply extract those files from the Neogeo bios and put them into the rom zip archive.
That worked Del, appriciate the help.
