thank you, that was the info I needed. all worked perfectly! It would have taken me 100 hours to have found the correct files by trial and error.... thanks again

all games play fine when launched in standalone mame 64 application 0.201 is the set... split merged also using the 0.201 emaulator 64bit all games play fine inside launchbox when the entire rom set of over 2000 roms is imported to launchbox. Here is where my problem lies... I only want to use about 200 games in my mame setup so I pick and choose them to import. 90 percent will play fine,but some games will not load without having the full set imported. I am assuming some files are needed to be in the mame roms folder that is not there when I pick choose. below are the games that give issues when the entire set is not stored in the folder. I do not want to have the entire set on my hard drive because I am using a 120gb ssd alien vs predator missing avsp.key not found alien vs predator dl-1425.bin Q sound not sound the punisher similar errors street fighter alpha and ex and ex plus will not load at all mk 4 will not load all these games will load inside launchbox when full set of over 2000 is imported, so I cant figure out the missing files to add to my custom set of 200 roms that will allow these few oddball roms to load. I have tried adding any folder that had the letters cp or cps in the file name. I tried adding the qsound folder to the rom list. im stumped. any help would be appreciated
