MAME.ini may not exist if its a new build of MAME the file has to be generated. To do so open the MAME.exe go into the configure option (not sure on the exact syntax). then go to save configuration you don't even have to do anything to it you can just save it from there that will generate the .ini file.

Jason I think you mean Non-Merged.

technically Vader is a Skywalker.

I guess my post that explains that was completely over looked.

I believe that it is just added to your device as internal storage it doesn't take away your ability to use the devices original internal storage. It will require you to format the drive though I believe or at least Android required that on my phone when I did it with my microSD card.

What are the various methods to save arcade high scores using RetroArch?
DOS76 replied to PurpleTentacle's topic in Noobs
" After lots of tries i got this one working in mame 0.192 core. I did the following: copy over complete mame official build as described above. copy over plugins.ini and mame.ini to retroarch/system/mame/ini folder set ALL paths in mame.ini. Mine look like this: Pastebin 205 in plugins.ini set highscores to 1 DELETE mame.exe Play game. Make Highscore and close Retroarch normally. With this settings i got it to work. Highscore .hi-Files are stored under /retroarch/hi/. Strange is the following. Without mame.exe i get the following message from mame on booting up a machine, e.g. dkong.zip: “Error: Failed to open File or Load Operation” But Highscores saved fine. After rebooting the game theyre all there. If i keep mame.exe in system/mame/ directory i get message “… Loaded Successfully” but highscore save won’t work. Dont know why this happens but I will investigate" Maybe this will help also -

" Someone may correct me but if I'm not mistaken you need a "Hi" directory in your Mame folder. Within Mame\Ini\Presets\ I have a plugins.ini which simply has a line that says "hiscore 1". Also in your Mame\Ini\Presets\Mame.ini I have a line that says "plugins 1" and "plugin hiscore". " quote is from this link I've never used the high score dat personally I just set it up using the plugin in MAME itself. T -

In the retroarch system folder is there a MAME entry? and if so does it have a plugin folder? I don't know if its possible or not but if you were to put the proper file in that directory set to use HighScore it might be worth a shot. -

It means go to the Associated Platform tab and put in Arcade and any command lines you want to use

Yes it is viable. Yes it works wll. Yes you can add your own videos and works with Emumovies. There is also a plugin that scrapes directly from Steam that you can use with it. No there is no trial the program is DRM free so that isn't feasible.

I would think LEDBlinky would support clones.
-
or you can click the additional app tab see what other games are listed there and then change the one you want to be the default game.
-
you can simply edit that line and change the game to tmnt.zip if you want and then test that and see what happens.

I believe that depends on the core I do know I copied a game of LoZ Ocarina of Time that I started on my phone to my PC so I know for that core at least the game saves are compatible beyond that I'm not sure what other cores support that.

Ah my bad missed the part with Android being involved. Last I checked no you can't use OD with Android because I don't believe it creates a local folder like in Windows or if it does I would have no clue where that would be located to even add it as a path in RA for Android. I think someone on the discord is using Free File Sync to accomplish this but don't hold me to that. Edit LOL looking at the title to the thread now I just feel stupid.
-
I just point my save and state directory in RA to my computers OneDrive folder this way I can play my game on anyone of my devices
-
try running sfc /scannow and see if it finds any Windows corruption.

can you elaborate on what you mean as I have no clue.

Please don't post the same thing in more than one topic. If someone can help you they will posting multiple times won't get you helped any faster than just posting once. I deleted the post from the other thread.

LB Configuration Files to Backup when moving to a new install or new machine?
DOS76 replied to StevenSensei's topic in Noobs
If you install LB on a new computer and then drop your Data, Images Videos Manuals and Music folders into your new build it will all work just like on you old computer without importing anything. The Data folder is probably the most important folder there. Even if you want to do a complete new build for all other platforms, for your Arcade platform if you want it to be the exact same as the one you worked on then you need to just drop the arcade.xml in the the Data\Platforms folder. -
If you use the FTP I doubt you would need to edit every game but it would probably be a considerable amount more than when using the DB. I would suggest being patient and downloading it thru LB even if it takes longer.

Okay I'm sorry about that I just had to ask as none of that information was posted in the original post. Its been so long that I've messed with NullDC I couldn't tell you how I used to get it to work but I definitely could. I'd suggest checking out Redream, Demul or the Flycast core in RetroArch over NullDC but if you are set on using hopefully some one can help. Pretty much the same with 4DO I just use the RetroArch core and honestly I never play anything on 3DO. Good luck with these I'm sure there are user using those emulators who can chime in.
