Can someone look over this ini and tell me why I am getting a message that says:
Error in command line:
While parsing ini\1941.ini
Warning: unknown option in INI:
Warning: unknown option in INI:
Warning: unknown option in INI:
This did not start happening until I upgraded from 213 to 217.
I have stared and compared and there is nothing that looks different than the mame.ini generated from the exe. The message is not giving me what exactly is the unknown option, it's just blank.

Looks like your file has the "ef bb bf" byte order mark denoting Unicode. As far as I am aware, all .ini file are expected to be plain text. Try saving it as "Normal Text File" or whatever is usually .txt with your editor and it should correct your issue you are seeing.

Still not working. Any other suggestions?
EDIT:Found out what was causing it. Too many large gaps in between INI options. I dunno why this would be an issue but putting all the options closer together stops this error message.
Thanks for the help though
