List of game names with corresponding zip name?
« on: August 23, 2013, 12:21:43 pm »
Frontends make it easy to create Favorite lists and/or delete games that you don't want or that don't work. It's way more difficult with MAME4Droid Reloaded. I'd love to be able to pick and choose which games I want from the list of roms to copy to the microSD rather than try and do it in MAME4Droid Reloaded. For example, I know that "bzone" is "Battlezone", but is there a complete list of what is what I can see as reference?

TIA!

You can make a list in Romlister, then have it output a batch file that will copy the appropriate roms to another folder for you.
http://www.waste.org/~winkles/ROMLister/

...or just use it as a reference.


...or type the rom name in http://www.progettoemma.net/ (Ricerca Rapida)

I don't recall how many total roms there are in MAME.
Enough that a printed list isn't practical.

Thanks, guys! I was looking for something simple like this, but alphabetical by zip name, not game name:

But Romlister may work too! I noticed that you can alphabetize by zip name with it.

I use sortinfo to do this. I believe that the version of roms is based on 0.139

Here is a csv from 0.137 that should have all the info you want in it. Use Excel or similar to view.

I'm sure PL1 will chime in with diagrams and links to get you squared away soon enough.

 :lol  No need for diagrams, just one link.

I use MAMEUIFX since it has a search field on the toolbar that shows all games that have that text string as you type, shows parent/child ROMs, and allows ROM auditing from a right-click menu.

I keep a full set of ROMs in an archive subdirectory and only copy ROMS that I want on my playlist to the roms directory.

It would be very easy to dump it to an SD card as well as to the roms folder then right-click audit it in MAMEUIFX to see if that game needs anything else. (parent ROM, driver, etc.)
