Multiple Rom Paths in Mamewah
« on: November 11, 2004, 07:21:47 pm »
Hi all,

I 'm trying to use multiple ROM directorys in MAMEWAH 1.52.

In my mame.ini file I set
"rom_path   c:\mame\roms\horizontal;c:\mame\roms\vertical"

But MAMEWAH can't find any ROM anymore.
If I delete one of the path, it works.

If I start M.A.M.E. with the option:
"-rp c:\mame\roms\horizontal;c:\mame\roms\vertical"
manually, Mame will find the Roms in both directorys.

How can I set Mamewah, to search more than one directory for Roms ?

Thank You for Help.

Zubel

  You need to set your multiple rom paths in MAME's mame.ini file, not MAMEWAHs.  Look in your MAME directory and find a mame.ini file there.  If there's not one you'll have to create one by opening up a command prompt, navigating to your MAME directory and running mame -cc .

  Read the MAME documentation on how to set up multiple ROM paths in there.

  Don't forget that when you do this, you can no longer use MAMEWAHs list_generation_method of rom_folder_vs_listxml.  You need to change the list_generation_method to verifysets_vs_listxml.
