Title: Newbie Questions/Mamewah
Post by: jamiex on January 20, 2005, 08:19:03 am

Ey people I've almost finished my cabinet and into the software side of things. Being new to this I have a few questions. I am using the latest version of mamewah(frontend) and MAME. So here are two Newbie questions I have to ask.

1) I have 2000 MAME roms and the popular roms (ie: wrestling, SF, MK, etc.) dont work and I get a dos box open and close and I get taken back to my menu. Does this mean MAME can't read them? Also how can I fix this problem?

2)What is the best emu for mamewah to play neogeo games?

Help would be appreciated

Sounds like youre roms are bad - use ClrMAMEPro or RomCenter to check/fix them.

I use MAME, but I don't know if that is the 'best'  :-\

If you are having that problem with NeoGeo games in MAME, make sure you have neogeo.zip in your rom folder.


woot, my first post.
