Need Help configuring MAMEWAH with ZSNES
« on: February 01, 2005, 01:30:26 pm »
Hi! How are all of you?  I am brand new to all of this. But i have  a little understanding of how things work.

I am hoping to have my first cabinet built before summer arrives.
And i did purchase the PROJECT ARCADE BOOK!
It is GREAT!!!

I want to have my computer ready for my cabinet before it is even built.
What i am trying to figure out is how to get ZSNES working with MAMEWAH?

After much trial and error i got MAME working with MAMEWAH.
But after trying to pretty much copy what i did with MAME with ZSNES
I get no GAMES/ROMS showing up when i hit generate list.

I pretty much understand the ini files.  And how they work.
And i have everything matched up and paths setup to where they need to be.

Unless there is something real technical i am missing here?
I am very new to all of this.

Every program i am using is the newest version.
And i am running WINDOWS XP.

I have been all over the web trying to pin down a good example of how to configure ZSNES with MAMEWAH. But i get so many different angles you don't know what is right?

If anyone has any idea on how to help me. I would very much appreciate it!

Or could even email me some good preconfigured ini files that would be great!

I decided to post my INI. FILES so that maybe someone can look over them to see if they are correct/need any changes?

Thanks again for any help.

It's your list generation method that is wrong.  Only mame uses the listxml function.  Change that to "rom_folder" and see if that helps.
