Adding roms to ArcadeOS

(1/3) > >>

dax:
Can someone explain to me how you add roms/menu items to ArcadeOS?  I have read through the docs and I don't understand.  I can fire the program up but I have no options.  This is frustrating.  Any help would be most appreciated.  It's my birthday.  I'm having a gathering over here.  I've been working all week to get this mame cabinet working for my guests and I'm in software hell.  help!!!

dax:
I managed to get somewhere by running a subst as in:

subst f: c:\games\games\mame\roms

Then I went in and set the file drive to F

I went to add roms and it cycled through a list, but kept saying "invalid directory" so I have no idea what's wrong.

Any help?

SirPeale:
The easiest way I've done it is to just move all new sets into your ROMs directory, then delete all *.lst files and *.rm* files.  When you launch ArcadeOS again, it'll rebuild your lists.

dax:
Does anybody know why it's saying "invalid directory?"  Does anyone know how this program compiles the information?  Something is weird.

dax:
Peale, the advice you gave helped... after I deleted the files and re-ran the system it found the games...

Now there's no sound in any of the games.  There's sound in ArcadeOS but not in any of the games.  One step forward, two steps back : (
