Don't use the DOS version of MAME, use the windows command line MAME.

Scumgriever:
just tried it in the command line version and it comes up saying 'no mame.ini found create a standard one'? I think I remember it doing this on the first launch before. Could this be the problem?

otherwise it still doesn't seem to be working.

swindus:
No. What you need is a mame.xml and a controls.ini file. Information from these files are stored in the MaLa game lists, which controls the loading of the defineables. So I have no idea why it doesnt' work here.

loadman:
Hmmm

Q1) I are sure you are using the WINDOWS command line mame version??

Q2) Please advise what version you are using please.

Yeah,
I was originally using Mame32, but now I'm using mame0108b.exe which I downloaded from
http://www.mame.net/downmain.html

The dos version I tried was also from that page, the fourth one down I think.

I have also tried using a few different versions of the controls.ini file - 107 and 108.

Is there some way I can try generating/downloading a new mame.xml? As far as I can see its all I haven't tried. Does Mame generate one when you first launch it or come with it. I forget. <- I may be barking up the complete wrong tree here. the mame.xml file is the part I have least sussed out.

Thanks again guys.
