Download mame rom
Make sure it's supported
Convert to romset 0.34 (if need be)
Transfer to card in the right directory
Select in file selector.

Hi all,

I'm having some problems with mame too, i got some roms working, but some (which are in the games list in the zip) dont work. bubble bobble for example, i've got the rom but it just crashes on loading (tried all 3 diff versions of mame).

Now i read i need to convert to version 0.34 of mame, but can someone explain how to do this? I loaded up clrmamepro and loaded the .dat file in the mame zip, but wasnt sure what options i should pick, i just clicked on rebuild, it changed the size of my bublbbl.zip file but stil doesnt work

Any advice gratefully appreciated

I don't use ClrMamePro, but there is a step-by-step howto on the wiki.

For Bubble Bobble you need to load the bootleg version called Bobble Bobble.

Thank you very much, the bootleg worked a treat, marvellous )

I found the working rom list a bit hit and miss for me. But thats half the joy when something works. Also try other roms just in case they work. Glass half full.
