Newb Question
« on: March 25, 2005, 04:08:28 pm »
I have the general MAME roms (was quite suprised as to how many actually) loaded and working fine. I also have the dreamcast roms. Do I just put the Dreamcast roms into the same rom folder or do I have to use a separate emulator for those? Sorry for such a simple question. I just didn't want to get everything loaded then have to look through to find the Dreamcast roms if it wasn't right.

  Nope, they should definitely go in a separate folder.  You'll also need a different emulator to run them.. I think Chankast is the current favorite.

Thanks very much. Checking out that Emu now, I'm sure I'll have more questions about this  ;D
