GroovyArcade live-CD 2022 (collaborative effort)
Deathblow81:
Hi All,
If I am starting out with a fresh ROM set, what number should I start with to then update to 256, keeping in mind this version of groovyarcade comes with 256.
Should I D/L 0.255 and then update to 256, or go back further?
Any help much appreciated, I've coming at this from all angles and literally wish to play 5 games on a naomi cab
Thank you for the effort that has gone into making this possible :notworthy:

If you can find a v0.256 ROMset, use that.
If not, try the nearest version that you can find.
- MAME will run fine just fine if the ROMs/BIOSes/device files for the five games you want to play haven't been redumped, renamed, or otherwise updated between the two versions. The more games you want to play and further apart the versions are, the more likely something you need in the ROMset will have changed.
- If MAME doesn't run all of the games you want you'll need to find an incremental update (?) ROMset that has just the new files for each version of MAME. For example, if you start with a v0.254 ROMset, you would copy over the new files for v0.255 then the new files for v0.256.
- The other approach is to look for the individual files that MAME complains about. You can see what files have changed on http://adb.arcadeitalia.net. For example, if you scroll down to the "Files" section of the Naomi BIOS entry, you'll see that these files haven't been updated between v0.250 and v0.257. It also has the CRC value for the individual ROMset files so you can tell if you have the right version. ;D

Thank you for putting this note in here - I was installing to a computer that hadn't been turned on in a few years and the CMOS battery had died. Once I got the date and time entered in the BIOS things started working much better all around...

To cut a long error message short, "certificate is not yet valid", which made me realise that my computer clock is wrong.

Just wanted to say thank you to all involved!
Got everything working and its amazing :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
Everything looks amazing and plays super well (apart from Soul calibur, bit slow/choppy)
Gonna throw an arcade party at some point with friends.
Again, thank you for the time and effort this has taken, I can't code for toffee!
