Mame Gp2x Help

[stepp]

Hi all

Been trying to get mame working....ive got all my roms into 0.34 style but no matter what i do i always get the error message ( which is hard to see ) which says no games available or something like that.

I have the roms zipped and in the roms folder, and i used evildragons guide on how to convert the roms using clrmamepro. And i used the dat file from the mame which i downloaded.

Does the main programme have to be in a certain directory?

Gona keep trying but jst wondered if anyone else had the same problem?

Just copy the emulator to you SD card in the mamegp2x folder, not in the mame gp2x 1.0 folder and everything should show up.

Ill give it a go...i did have it in the mamegp2x folder but i had that folder in my "games" folder.

Anyway im rebuilding the romset yet again to see if i did anything wrong. Thanks for the help

I seem to be having the very same issue.

I have MameGP2X in its own folder at /mnt/sd/mamegp2x , with the roms present in their own directory under /mnt/sd/mamegp2x/roms - but on load, I get the (hardly readable) "No roms found" error.

Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong?

hi m8

Just stick the "mamegp2x" folder in the root of your mem card. Then in that folder will be the roms folder....whack the roms in there and you should be ok.

It worked for me.


EDIT...it seems youve done that already...hmmmm maybe someone else can help as i havent got a clue what else could be wrong.

Good luck mate

WinterK, you have to put files and the roms folder under a mamegp2x folder at the root of your SD card. So if your SD reader is show as drive X, you should put your roms in X:/mamegp2x/roms not in X:/mnt/sd/mameg2px/roms.
