Those rom-sites often have very outdated Roms that worked on Mame .33 or so. Try TPB and "working rom set" or so.

Remove the rom site link from your thread title, then go read the rules.

I have read the rules... I am not asking rom or promoting link to download rom directly. I am asking if it's normal that the latest version of Mame seem to not be able to play a lot of roms?
Yes, it is normal for some newer version of MAME not to play older version roms...  if you were using .039 then your roms are WAYYY out dated and will not work on .129.

You posted a link to a rom site in your thread title. What part of this confuses you?

Thank you sir. Didn't know a rom could be outdated.

Do a search for CLR Mame.  It's a tool which takes your version of mame and compares it to the roms in your directory, to ensure all your sets are good.  If they are not, then that's a trip to google or usenet.

I have all information that I want. I do not want to make someone cry or do a heartattack here ;)

I do not see the delete button too sorry... I am new...

Some advice:  Watch your wording.  It's one thing to be new and have a ton to learn.  It's another thing to imply that the forum is full of cry babies.

@Ginsu Victim :
I have removed the title few minutes after the warning, so calm down and get something to relax. You are about 2 hour late by the way so your comment is useless and redundant.

You said that by not posting a direct rom link that you weren't breaking the rules. THAT'S what I responded to. You removed the link, but guess what, you couldn't remove it from all the posts that replied to you and now have it. Those people would have to remove it from each of theirs now, but I'm sure this thread will wind up in "Post Hell" soon anyway.

Alright, I have delete all my post to show you my good intention.

I'll be back with some building question. Software part is almost done. Thank for people that have been gentle in my error about this post. I really haven't got any bad intention.
