OK - still having problems with custom lists in Mamewah, after trying to figure it out, I found a video tutorial on where to put the catver file and what mamewah options to select.
http://www.screenshotarchive.com/mwtutorial.htm
However, after watching the tutorial, several of the Game List Options (Custom Games List in particular) shown in the video are not there on my machine. ( I am aware that the video is for an older version of Mamewah) The only options I have in "Game Lists Options" is (if I remember correctly, not at home now) is "Generate List", "Main", "Favorites", and "Find Game". I have done generate list and all it does is update the "Main" list.
What am I missing or need to do different? I am using version 1.61 and mame 0.99.

You need to create an ini file for each list you want...
default is mame-0.ini
copy it to mame-1.ini
example of each ini file:
### mame-0.ini (mamewah v1.62) ###
list_title All Games
### Games List Settings ###
cycle_list 1
### Execution Settings ###
pre_emulator_app_commandlines
emulator_commandline
post_emulator_app_commandlines
### Settings used by MAMEWAH ###
current_game 27
### mame-1.ini (mamewah v1.62) ###
list_title Classics
### Games List Settings ###
cycle_list 1
list_type normal
display_clone_info 0
max_favorites 0
### Execution Settings ###
pre_emulator_app_commandlines
emulator_commandline
post_emulator_app_commandlines
### Settings used by MAMEWAH ###
current_game 6
Once you have more than one ini for mame you will be able to select the list in the menu... othewise you will only get one.
