And yeah, a whole bunch of them just don't work, even with the right BIOS installed. Not wanting to download things piecemeal but also not wanting like 30GB in a full romset, I downloaded a romset from an older version of MAME that was smaller, since I only care about games like pre-1990 or so anyway. I think I had it installed in some kind of documents folder instead of program files, and just deleted it by mistake when I upgraded my computer.Īnyway, I'm on 0.180 now and it definitely seems like a bigger pain than I remember. Somehow I lost my MAME directory, so I had to start over. I think around the time of 0.36 was when I was really into it had most of the available ROMs and had everything set up really nicely. I used to love MAME and I still dabble with it every once in a while, but IMO the whole project is slowly collapsing under its own weight.


Not every time, but too often in my experience. if so, which one? And am I going to have to try to find a new version every time I download something? Do I need to scrap the 0.181 and download an older version of MAME? I know there can be compatibility issues when MAME is updated.
