Current CatVer.ini? Mamewah not filtering correctly
« on: February 09, 2006, 09:23:44 am »
Hello,

I am running mame .103 and MameWah as my front end.  Just downloaded the latest CatVer.ini to make some filtered lists with Mamewah.  The problem is that no matter what I use as a category filter, there are always extra games listed (the same ones in each list.)  Is this possibly because these games are listed in the CatVer.ini file, so they get included in all the lists (ie, don't get filtered out)??  Thanks.

a) I already answered this when you posted it at Mameworld: http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Number=64209&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1&vc=1&new=1139442723

b) this should at least be in the software forum, if you must keep crossposting

Didn't think this had anything to do with MameWah really, figured it was because of mismatched versions of Mame and CatVer, but thanks for an answer anyway.

It basically is (try using the uptodate unofficial catver)...but ultimately I must admit it is a bug in Mamewah which causes the filtering problem.

And if you didn't think it is a Mamewah problem why post in the Mamewah board??

I posted that yesterday on that board before I realized my catver didn't match my mame version :)
