This sounds like a sensible plan, but daunting. Even so, I set about doing it.
However, after a lot of rigamarole I won't bore everyone with, I ended up trying this:
- Set up a fresh MAME folder without configuring anything at all — no ROMs nor anything else present
- Set up a fresh Emu Loader folder
- Point the fresh Emu Loader at the fresh MAME during welcome setup
- Let scan start
Result: the exact same error in the exact same place.
Then, just for giggles, I did the same thing all over again, but this time with MAME 0.260. No errors; Emu Loader shows everything properly (all with no ROMs present of course).
It looks like the problem is happening prior to any examination of any actual ROMs or other files. So I don't know how I can exclude parts of what Emu Loader is seeing to narrow anything down…?
