Hi All. I'm migrating to IV-Play from MameUI. In previous MameUI, no need to touch mame.ini, since all config was directly done in mameui.ini. Now, IV-Play uses mame.ini so I' stuck with that one. I downloaded mame64bit into l:\g\mame, and in there, I also unzipped ivplay. Then I moved my roms into the "roms" folder of mame. I have 3 separated roms directories - std - for "standard" games - b - for BIOS games - sw - for software games STD games run ok, in both, mame and iv-play (puckman, frogger). BIOS don't work. SW don't work. It reports "missing files". However, I do have the right config, I think:
L:\g\mame>findstr roms mame.ini rompath L:\g\mame\roms\b;L:\g\mame\roms\std;L:\g\mame\roms\sw
As You can see, all 3 directories are configured in the "rompath" variable.
Now, if I try to run MetalSlug, it says not available, but the neogeo folder and the mslug folder are both under the "sw" folder, so if I understand correctly the logic in the doc:
https://docs.mamedev.org/usingmame/assetsearch.html#system-roms
It should work:
L:\g\mame>dir roms\sw\neogeo\mslug* Volume in drive L is LLAGOS WDE4T Volume Serial Number is 38F4-7659
Directory of L:\g\mame\roms\sw\neogeo

Same thing for BIOS, like Naomi (not found):
L:\g\mame>dir roms\b\naomi* Volume in drive L is LLAGOS WDE4T Volume Serial Number is 38F4-7659
Directory of L:\g\mame\roms\b

I'd appreciate any hint.
Thanks a lot,
