I'm running .149, and downloaded both tapper.zip and tappera.zip, as well as midssio.zip, and MAME is still kicking out an error that I'm missing a file. Right now, I have the contents of all of the above sitting in a 'tapper' folder inside my ROM directory.
1. Why do you have the files in a 'tapper' sub-directory?
- The .zip files should be in the 'roms' directory with all the other ROMs.
- Sub-directories are for games that need a CHD file such as Killer Instinct (kinst) or Simpsons Bowling. (simpbowl)
2. If moving the files doesn't work, are you sure you downloaded a 0.149-compatible version?
Here are the filenames, sizes and CRCs from my 0.152 set -- they should be the same as your 0.149 set.
Tapper.zip (parent ROM) 18 files
