List only parent ROMS in MameWAH
« on: August 24, 2004, 03:27:36 pm »
I have the complete .086 rom set.  I'm using MAME for Windows with MameWah as a frontend.  I've created my .DAT file like I've read throughout the forum and populated my games list using Rom folder vs. Dat list.  

My question is, how can I display only the parent roms in Mamewah?  It takes a bit to decide what to play (and gets annoying to read on a 20" TV with SVideo) over 5000 titles with only half of them actually unique.

Thanks in advance!

Enter MameWah's menu
Go to:
          - 'Games List Option'
          -'Select Custom List' (move down and choose 'custom list 1)
          -'Custom List Title'  (if you want to change the list title to something more fitting)
          - 'Generate Custom List using Filters'
          -"Display Clones'  (change this to 'NO' or 'Only if better than parent')

hope this helps,
