Donkey Kong samples not working
cbmeeks:
I'm only running about 10 games on my cab and two of those are Donkey Kong/Jr..
I have downloaded the samples from mame.net and put into the samples folder but they don't play? I didn't unzip. I get audio. I just don't hear the running sound or ladder climbing sounds (or chain climbing sounds in DKJr.)
In my MAME.INI, I have put the correct path in the samples folder (I assume) because it matches the ROM path root folder...ie, only "samples" changed from "roms"
Any suggestions?
Oh, I'm not using a front end at the moment. I am writing my own so I am just using DOS command line (under Windows 98)
Thanks!

Make sure your ROMs version match your MAME version. To check, get this:

ROM versions have to match MAME versions? Jeesh!
lol
thanks
Havok:
Yeah, I know it's a pain. You'd think that the ROM is the ROM, but there are changes to allow for changes in the MAME code.

I wonder if that is why my Pac Man doesn't work when it used to??
