Roms audited but some are not loading :O
#309683 - 06/02/13 12:36 PM


I have audited my romsets with Clrmame Pro and the 148 dat and now they are all right. However, using Emuloader I've noticed some are red, which means that they will not load. Actually, when loading them, I get the error of missing roms. I've tried redownloading them, but it's the same. Actually, I've tried some of these games with MAME 146 and the problem is there too.

Can they be broken games in 148?

In that case, why the missing rom message, instead or any other message?

How can I know in what recent version these games still work?

The worst thing is that some games are not marked red in Emuloader either, but they have the same problem, for instance, the Street Fighter Alpha games. How can I find out what games wont load without having to try them all one by one?

This is the list of problematic roms reported by Emuloader:

bosco
btoads
crusnusa
crusnwld
csmash
demoderb
digdug
dotron
gokuparo
galaga
gaplus
mk4
mk4a

primrage
radikalb
shollow
slikshot16
solarfox
speedup
spyhunt
sshooter

I think all these games use device sets (namco50 and others). Make sure you have all the required device sets and that they have all the ROMs.

Just select a game, call games popup menu (mouse right-click) and select "Game Details" (or use the Shift+I hot-key.

Also, remember to re-create the games list when updating to a new MAME.

What are device sets?

I've tried with Xevious and I found them (namco50.zip, namco51.zip and namco54.zip) in one of the webpages I use for downloading roms. I've placed the files in \roms. Is the right place? Now Xevious loads

My question: any place to download all these deviced at once?

device sets have common ROM files used by many different games... at least I think that's what device sets are for.
Just place them in the same folder(s) as your game sets.

Sorry it's forbidden to share ROMs download links. Google is your friend.

OK, no problem. I've already fixed everything. I had no idea about this devices stuff. Thanx a lot again!
