Hi, I just bought a GP2X to mess about with, and I thought I would get some EMUs on it. So I downloaded MAMEGP2X and got some ROMs, but the ROMs were zipped, and inside there are loads of files. The problem is that if I put the zip files OR the extracted files from the zip into the ROMs folder of the MAMEGP2X directory, i get the message "ERROR: NO AVAILABLE GAMES FOUND". Am I doing something wrong?

Any replies appreciated, thanks.
 
Read the README file.

Try to find a 0.34 .torrent, or have a go at some of the many ROMS sites to glean your favorite games.
 
Thanks for the answer, turns out the 2 ROMs I tried just werent compatible. It now finds the ROM im trying but wont start it for some reason, its just dies on the loading screen with the black background and white text. I guess ill just try some more ROMs till one works.
 
Out of curiosity is the mame 0.34 torrent still floating about?

everytime i've tried d/ling it, it barely downloads at majorly slow rates....

Try eMule ;)

edit: Yeah, it's good for things other than piracy! Rompacks are the only time I use it.
