Hello there!

After loading "Crush Roller" rom-set I get the following error-message:

"Unable to initialize machine emulation"
"LOAD FAILED: Press...."

Does this mean I have a bad rom-set or the game does not work with the current version (1.4)?

Thanks,

mr.white

Can you give us anymore details? Does it complain about checksums in the ROM files?

If you could give us the full error message, I might be able to tell you more.

Nope, this is the complete message I get:

"Unable to initialize machine emulation"
"LOAD FAILED: Press any key to continue"

After pressing a key I'm back at the rom selection screen.
No checksum complains or anything else on the beginning at loading.

???

It probably is a ROM problem.

Unfortunately the error messages "wrap" around to the next page, so you'll have lost what the real problem is.

Try getting a different ROM, or ideally using CLRMamePro to "fix" your ROMs

Maybe you didn't change the directory for the roms? The new version (1.4) has a different directory structure, read the txt.

Well, all other roms working fine, so the directory structure is fine. I'll try to get another set of this game, but normaly it should be the right version.

At least I know this specific game should work with version 1.4.

Thanks to all!

It is a problem with the roms at it means they are either not i the right format or not named right.

Now I got some other crush.zip romsets. Of course the newer once Mame 0.96 won't work at all and give me the following error message:

----
Loading "Crush Roller"...
tp1
Unable to open ROM
Error reading ROMs
Unable to initialize machine emulation
LOAD FAILED: Press any key to continue
-----

The first crush.zip I tryed was from a mame-version 0.32 and 0.34 but none of them workes and just typed the error message in my first post.

Has somebody here ever tryed this game and does it work on Mame GP32 1.4??

Well, I also take a look on CLRMamePro, but this Programm give me the creep - no clue how it works or I can change my rom to working 0.34 set-version.

Give RomCenter a go. The interface is alot easier to use (for me anyway).
