Updating mame exe?
Ginsu Victim:
Download the new roms over your old ones and it will only update the ones that are either new or have changes.

Download new roms over old ones? Not sure what you mean.
Ginsu Victim:
Say you were to download a torrent of the latest roms, you would point it to the directory that contains your old roms and it would overwrite the ones that need overwritten (anything that has been updated, plus newly added games). That way, you don't have to redownload EVERYTHING (20GB just for the ROMs).

Ahh I smell what you're stepping in now. Just don't under stand how getting same rom will make it start working on newer mame exe. But I am new to this.
Ginsu Victim:
It won't be the same if it's been updated. (Also, like I said, some games stop working in newer versions)
