New/Updated Roms?
« on: November 22, 2005, 03:39:56 pm »
Hi guys-
You've been wonderful in helping me out- thanks, I really appreciate it!  I'm wondering if there's a place I can go to see a list of any new roms that have come out, or, upgrades/fixes to older ROMS that have already come out? I got all mine about a year ago, and would like to see if there's any new ones out, or, if any have been fixed/updated?  Where would I go to find a list like that?

*NOTE* I am NOT asking where to get the ROMS, just what's come out lately ;)

There are other ways to do it, but I like MAWS.

ok sweet- except- how do I know what # my original version of roms is?  I see this  .102u1 on the site- where do I go to see which ROMS I currently have to compare to what's come out since then?

Or am I interpreting this wrong?
Thanks

eyal8r - MAWS will only show you which roms were released for a particulat version as far as I'm aware anyway). Its good that you can do that as you can decide if you want to bother upgrading to a new version of mame. As you already know, some roms change when mame upgrades (I've never quite understood why this is unless theres a bad rom dump or something). Anyway, I think you need something like clrmamepro. I've never used it myself as I usually wait for a fair few games to be supported before obtaining a new set of roms.

So, MAWS is for seeing which new games are supported.
clrmamepro is for checking which roms are out of date.
