Hello,
Is Mala recognizing 7z roms with merged sets?
Thank you

I haven't moved to 7zip yet, but it should just be a matter of changing the rom extension in MALA to 7z and refreshing your gamelist.

In mame config, I dont find anything to control file extension, but in other emulators menu config has it.
I changed one rom to zip and MalaFE has found it.
I think that a ninor change in the source of MalaFE, adding filter for 7z extension would not be a problem....
... but I´m not the programer, I cant realy tell!

Plz Loadman add *.7z filter when searching for roms in MAME!!! :notworthy:
Thank you...

...While not solution found or implemented, I've got a way to cheat the program.  ;D
Renamed all roms to *.zip a then run Mala to make games list and renamed again to *.7z.

Thank you
