How To Convert Later Roms To Mame.34??

[Spoonfeeder]

Hope someone can help as just bought this baby for mame, have the frontend installed but not recognizing any of my rom sets.??

have following directories set up:

GPMM/GPMAME/ROMS

is this correct??

the frontend (GP MAME Launcher by Alien8, is also not showing list of games???

do any later roms work on this version - or do you have to hunt around for earlier roms???

Hope someone can help

Thanx

You would need to convert your existing roms to 0.34 format via ClrMamePro (maybe also RomCenter). Basically, roms for 0.94 will not work. Your best bet is to download an old copy of Mame 0.34 and then extract a new dat file.

Not sure about the locations as I haven't purchased a GP32 yet.

Mame roms need to go into gpmm/mameo34

I have got most of my games to work, can't get a good set for donkey kong from my mame 86 set as well as a couple of others but if you use ctlmame with the mame 34 dat file and do a rom merge from your existing set it should be able to rewrite most of the roms back to 34 version I would say I was able to do about 95-97% of my roms correctly, the rest I would have to download another copy of those roms - unfortunatly you don't know if they will work until you try them.

No offence but the readme.txt tells you exactly where to place the roms

As I am a complete noob is there anywhere with a really good guide to converting the roms?

I do have tons of the buggers and would like to be able to convert them.

I have clrmame but have no idea how to even start.
