newb build. Struggling to get twin off the ground

Howard_Casto:
You plop em in the "roms" folder within model 2, not sure how you can screw that up.

Also make sure you are using the correct roms. 

While Model 2 technically uses mame rom sets the emulator is fairly old.  Many of the sets have been changed since then. 

deathrow:
Thanks,

I did crate the folder and go through the instructions.
Making sure the pathway was correct etc.

I did read the "readme" file and do what I was asked. I think the roms that I got bundled are not great.

I will try something else and do it one by one as seen elsewhere.

The apology I left was for linking a download. just got ahead of myself a bit and broke the rules.

I will figure it out I'm sure.

Thanks to everyone for your kind help/support

BadMouth:
roms should be in the rom folder
they should be zipped files, do not extract them
IIRC, the path to the rom folder can be changed in emulator.ini

There really is nothing more to it than that.
If you got the roms and the emulator from the same place, they should work together.

Download all the variations of a rom.  There are things in the main "parent" rom that the other variations need.
For example, if you download Daytona Turbo, it only contains extra files needed to play the turbo version.
You also need the original Daytona rom for the main files.

The official site for the emulator is here:

(At my workplace, Trend Micro blocks it as malicious, but I've never had any issues)

Hi mate,

Yes its all pretty simple and should work but I think the computer is crap lol
Getting an occasional blue screen fault too.

I think I am going to wait until I can get some space in the house for a nice warm indoor build where I will feel more comfortable spending out of a couple of i5 or i7 computers.

I will continue on with the PS2's inside her for now and may add a couple of Dreamcasts etc on a dragon cast cable to play daytona ntsc-j linked up.

You've all helped me a great deal and have given me more time/help than was reasonable to ask for.

I thank you very much  :notworthy:

deathrow:
Yup was deff the old PC thats been giving me the headache.

I borrowed my sons laptop and quickly a couple of roms in the emulator..





Very simple as you guys have stated and not much can really be messed up. Im sooooo glad I'm not a thick as I thought lol

Been playing 24hr on the keys and had a little fun with setting things up.
Sound was a little here and there as to be expected from an old laptop but was perfectly useable.

So.... DAYTONaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa  :notworthy:  :notworthy:  :notworthy:

 :lol

Just got to resist the urge to buy a couple of pc's  :blah:
