No one said it was crashing, it was probably just not finding the roms. The OP probably just didn't realize that IV/Play utilizes the mame.ini for options and doesn't have a menu system like MameUI for tweaking them. That's intentional and IV/Play can run just fine w/out the ini sitting at the top of the directory structure of a baseline or mameui dist package if you want to for whatever reason.

In my estimation baseline should be creating a mame.ini on first run if there isn't one, if for nothing else than to expose the user to the myriad of settings.

But whatevs, that's why there are a variety of front ends out there so you can find one that suits you and your workflow/gameflow.
