Adding game to MAME cabinet, trying to find missing files.
« on: April 27, 2009, 05:17:44 pm »
Trying to add the King Of Monsters to my MAME cabinet, but when I check it in MAMEUI it shows that it is missing some files.

I assume these are either parent ROMs or bios ROMs required to run.  Is there a web site or database that shows the required files needed to run certain roms?

I have a complete set, but trying to only add in what I want and not have to weed out a lot of extra.

my first guess is that you are missing the neo-geo bios.  It should be called neogeo.zip in your roms folder.

Other possibilities are that you have the wrong neo-geo bios.  There are a few versions floating around.

Also, you could have an old NeoRageX version of the rom. 

A database?  Hmm, a think ROMcenter was pretty good in the past, don't know about now.
