Schultz Wrote:I can't remember the program off hand but alot of tiems with Mame there will be parent roms and child roms. Which like the parent rom will contain everything it takes to run it and a child rom will have only the things that have changed so to conserve space. but if you only have the child rom zip file it won't work at all. I will try and find the program you can use to manage your roms. It dumps out a list of roms mame32 will play and scan yours and tell's you the files you are missing to get a rom to run.
I believe that's the way it works. Like d/ling Metal Slug 4 is 50 megs, but the dumpped version or something like that is only 8, but the 8 meg won't work without the 50 meg (I think those sizes & titles are right.)

playing N64 roms on a puter is very difficult on the processor. I hate N64 emulation, just get the machine and a TV. GBA emulation kicks arse I used to emulate GBA but I had to format.
make sure you get a clean recent version of MAME and then try and load your roms. not all roms run on MAME need mind you.

Ya, I just wish you could make the screen bigger than a gba screen. =P Oh well, it's nice to have a way to test out games now. If I like a game I can just buy it and play it on the DS.

I play GBA games at full screen or atelast 3/4 screen. It just makes it look like a SNES game.
