Re: can a mamedev help ?

I've a problem with multilist games between History.dat and MAME.

For example the Mega-Tech games. They appears both in the mainlist AND in the megatech softlist.

Information for all Mega-Tech games are actually availables in the History.dat as this form, for example Wrestle War :

----------------

$megatech=mt_wwar,
$info=mt_wwar,
$bio

Sega Mega-Tech cart. published 28 years ago:
Wrestle War (c) 1991 Sega Enterprises, Limited.

----------------

As you can see, this $bio should appears in $info rom mt_wwar AND in the $megatech rom mt_wwar. It works fine in all frontends (MAMEui, QMC2, etc..) but not in MAME.

Can any mamedev fix this case ?


Same problem with for example the AES version of Burning Fight (NGH), it appears on mainlist and on the neogeo softlist in the history.dat as :

$neogeo=burningfh,
$info=burningfh,
$bio

Not shown in MAME for both
