Long story short.
Had major PC issues awhile back.
Got a new PC , installed Photoshop, and now installed Mala so I could design layouts.
I installed MAME but none of the additional files (the links on the Mala site were dead).
I have no ROMs on the PC, but prior I had a full list of games display.
Now no games, so I can not test my layouts correctly as no list displays.

Is it because I'm missing the other files ?

Any help would be appreciated ?

Zipper:
Hey Mike. When you point mala to the mame.exe file it should ask if you want to generate a mame.xml file. That is the source for the list I think.

mike boss:
Thanks.
I'll give it another go.
I need this fixed....... ..worst case I'll toss a few ROMS in the ROM folder.
Just enuff that I can test my font sizes.

mike boss:
Tried that and it didn't work.
So I tried a different version of MAME ...added the support files (catver, nplayers, controls) and still NADDA!
I can't finish my layouts cause of this.

WTF.............................................. :banghead:

mike boss:
I also made sure to add 3 ROM files to my ROM folder.
I thought ok.....these 3 should show ? NO DICE!
