chrishicks Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 I want to download MAME32 but am unsure what files I need to download. I'm not talking about roms but the software that is needed to play them. could someone please help me out with this? I am going to use this on an XP machine.

kheffington Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 All you need is the binary that matches your processor. Get Mame32 plus instead from http://www.emufanatics.com/emulators.php?f...=fileinfo&id=38 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrishicks Posted May 3, 2004 Author Share Posted May 3, 2004 great. thank you for the help. now another question: do all the roms have to have the same # or can I use some that are .81 and others that are say .74? I will probably just send some discs to someone for a complete set later but I have some roms on my pc now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most probably work. Some games require multiple roms. why not check out the Mame FAQ here http://www.mame.net/mamefaq.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 1. download mame32. Install 2. Put roms in /roms folder Can't get much simpler than that. If a particular rom doesn't work, then you need another version of it probably. That's about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's about it [/quote'] I also noticed that mame doesn't remember where to look on a network drive after the computer is shut off and turned back on. I have to research for all my roms from the network drive before any of them will work. And with 4000+ roms it takes about 5 minutes to search for them all every time I start mame.
