| Older MAME sets? |

| Hockeyboy:
Not sure if this is violating board rules here, but do some people keep older versions of romsets around for those people who are not going to buy the biggest & baddest computer out there? A friend of mine is selling me (for about $5) a PIII 1GHz computer and I know it probably won't run MAME .112, will it? I'm betting I need to go back quite a few versions and get those romsets, but I don't even know how to go about that. Can I ask for some direction or help, or not? |

Yes. You want to use this program called clrmamepro, which lets you rollback your sets to previous versions of mame. So first, you wanna download a complete romset (doesn't matter which version, as long as it's a version higher than the version of mame you're going to use). I can't tell you where specifically to get one, (so please don't --- saint). Then use the tutorial here. You might wanna back up your roms, because first time users can have trouble and accidentally mess them up or delete them. (Like I did :D) |

This is dangerously skating towards post hell. |

Clrmamepro may have more features or something, but I think Romcenter is easier to use. I probably should have suggested that one instead. :D --- Quote from: sphetr2 on February 10, 2007, 08:53:40 am ---(so please don't --- saint). --- End quote --- Sorry about that. I've seen other times in the forum where people have posted that you can get roms from these sources, and none have been censored. I thought that a generic source would be okay. I guess not. I'm sorry. Won't happen again. |
