Dochartaigh:
I hope I didn't miss the answer to this, but I'm using MAME 0.200 and some of the files are missing (or their name has changed in the newer version of MAME). Is there a command I can add to the .bat file which will make it NOT close the window after it's done copying so I can sort through whichever ones aren't copying over (because they're missing), then manually try to find those?

Think I have something like 530 out of 600+ so there's quite a few missing.

Now my kids don't have to go hunting for a game when they have friends over and decide to switch from TMNT to the Cowboys of Moo-Mesa or whatever. I think there are a few errors on the list, but it's a good 95% solution for those interested.

List is attached.

I fixed this list so it's .zip instead of .7z (so it matches the others, and I personally have romsets which only use .zip). Change .txt to .bat.

QUESTION from a noob...I'm going through this list, Crime Fighters is linked to crimefght.zip (2-player ONLY), BUT the 4-player one is crimefghtu. I'm using a merged set. How do I get it (through this _Multi List) to load the crimefghtu version instead? crimefghtu is listed in my regular list (of ALL games), but I can't figure out how to get it to load this particular one (and unzipping it doesn't do it either...).

Unzip the attached file and place the "allkiller.ini" file in the "folders" directory in your mame install (v.172 or later). When you launch mame without a rom name (or use MameUI) you can select "categories", then "allkiller.ini" and choose from any of the the All Killer No Filler categories.

Thanks again to BadMouth for putting these together!

I updated this to include the _Multi (3 and 4 player games) as well. Change .txt to .ini and put in C:\mame\folders (like millercentral said!).

pause. This waits for a keypress, after that the window is closed.

You can also direct the output into a .txt file which makes finding the missing files more comfortable.

Open the .bat file with a text editor. It should look something like this

md _vertshmups
copy 1942.zip _vertshmups
::copy 1943.zip _vertshmups
copy 1943u.zip _vertshmups
copy 19xx.zip _vertshmups
copy aerofgts.zip _vertshmups
copy vspsx.zip _vertshmups
copy agalletu.zip _vertshmups
::copy agallet.zip _vertshmups
copy batrideru.zip _vertshmups
::copy batrider.zip _vertshmups
copy batsugunsp.zip _vertshmups
::copy batsugun.zip _vertshmups

Now go into the search and replace menu, choose replace and replace

.zip _vertshmups

with

.zip _vertshmups >>error.txt

Save and start the .bat file. When it's done, you will have an error.txt file in the destination directory (that would be _vertshmups in my example). Open error.txt in a text editor, look at the first error message, copy some of the text and use the search function to hop from error to error.

Dochartaigh:
Cool. Thanks. So basically just add ">>error.txt" (with a space before it) to the end of every .zip file listed and I can then look at the error.txt and find which ones are missing. I will do that!

I'm interested in these files, but am a little unsure on what to do. Can someone dumb it down and tell me exactly what to do?
