Solved Adding Mame 2010

[frankie842]

Where do I put my Mame 0.139 (2010) romset file? And do I need to add a seperate BIOS? In the front end, what emulator core should I choose?
Thanks

@frankie842 Hi,
Put your romset in the "mame" folder that is in your "roms" folder.
Add your bios in your "bios" folder
In the front end you choose mame2010 as default core.

Thanks. Do I need a Mame 2010 BIOS?

@frankie842 Best thing will be to read this :

@gaetan I've placed the Mame 2010 romset folder in my mame folder, and have changed the core to mame2010, but I don't see the games from my mame2010 folder. Do I need to change anything else? Update game list perhaps?

[Gaetan]

@frankie842 Yes, you need to update the gamelist or restart your Recalbox

[frankie842]

@gaetan Ok I updated the gamelist, and restarted recalbox, but the mame2010 games aren't showing. I see them in the recalbox manager, just not on my machine. Any ideas?

[Gaetan]

@frankie842 are your mame2010 roms in a mame2010 folder inside the mame folder ? Or are the straight in the mame folder ? Are they zip files ?

[frankie842]

@gaetan They are in a MAME 0.139 (2010) folder which is inside the mame folder. They are zip files.

[Gaetan]

Put your roms straight into the mame folder and you should be good to go

[frankie842]

@gaetan Still not showing up. Not sure what to do now

[Gaetan]

@frankie842 is it and official Recalbox image ?
Do you use the Recalbox theme ?
If so, putting your zip mame roms straight in the mame folder (no subfolder!) should make your Mame apprar in ES.

[frankie842]

@gaetan Yes it's an official Recalbox image, and Recalbox theme, and the roms are not in a sub folder. I see other mame games showing up, just not the mame2010 games

Check option gamelist only.

[Gaetan]

@frankie842 do as @acris said. If it's still not working, please add a screenshot of your mame folder.

[frankie842]

Ok I just deleted all the files in that were in there, and reloaded the mame2010 roms and that worked. Thanks for your help. Cheers!

@frankie842 Great, have fun!
