Mamewah says it is scanning the rom folder, but then returns no games. Any input would be appreciated.

hey santos,

I was able to get mame to work with the included mame.ini (after slight path mods)

Did you put the beta in a clean / fresh folder or did you plop it ontop an older mamewah version/folder?

I can't remmeber which list generation method I used off hand and am away from the cabinet... and I can't find the thread that helped me figure it out :(

I installed 1.62 in a brand new folder with all new files. I made sure to install the system files incase something happened to them when I removed 1.61. I've also been to that cpviewer website, their ini files have a lot of extra junk in them that I'm not currently using. I tried setting up a different emulator (fceu) thinking maybe I compiled the mame file wrong as I wasn't sure what I was doing with it, I just followed some instructions, but it did the same thing with fceu so I'm pretty sure I'm either doing something wrong or have something set up wrong in mamewah. Any more input would be appreciated.

im having the same problem.  i installed the system files and mamewah for the first time today.  after reading the wiki and getting the emulator and rom paths in the ini file still no games.  its says 'generating list' for about 2 seconds then returns nothing....   :banghead:
