I saw nothing like that, but it looks like it came out ok. Maybe I chose it somewhere without realizing it? In any case, the names are correct now and the games launch again. But it barely got any box art =( That's a bummer. I did not choose to include any emu movie or wiki scrapes. I was afraid that would cause it to get massive amounts of videos again.

ok, i just finished the import wizard and it is busy importing. there is no setting "Use MAME names/metadata" in the import wizard. maybe in an older LB version? I am using the very latest.. but at the last screen in the wizard it showed me the game names it would use, and they looked right so i clicked finish. just waiting now as it imports almost 23k games...

in the wizard it's asking if i want to copy, move, or leave rome in current location. i do not want to copy or move. but it says if i leave them in their current location it will not attempt to organize the files. so that doesn't sound too good? what does it mean?

i am about to import all the Mame roms again using the import roms wizard and hopefully not include videos/music. i'll watch for that and will be eyeing everything very carefully. keeping fingers crossed. thanks for helping.

only thing i can think of is delete all Mame games from the LB Mame platform and try importing them again. at best i might get back to where i started which is having working Mame games but no art.

Well that was a major mistake, all it did was download tons of videos that i already had but almost no cover art. And even worse than that, now I have tons of Mame game names like gal-0017 and many other non human like names and those do not even have rom files to run an actual game. I haven't found a single game that will launch since doing this download and they all worked before. Wow, I wish I never did that download. No idea what to do now. It's all messed up.

I pulled the trigger on the download all. Didn't choose music yet, because I didn't know how much space that would take up. It's been downloading for a while now, which is ok. My friend setup LB and RocketLauncher on this usb drive for me for all my many platforms. I'm guessing he chose not to let it download for MAME since it would take up a lot of his time. I don't know. I'm sure liking LB over hyperspin for my personal game computer, although HS is nice for a cabinet (but i think bigbox probably is too, but i haven't built a cabinet yet. can't wait to do it later with LB Bigbox now that I see it has a similar wheel to HS). LB is nice and clean and easy to navigate. I like that on my desktop. I am hoping LB gets a little bit faster when loaded up with 24k+ games, like I have. I will try adding my regular PC Steam games next, which is just awesome.

I am just starting to use LB 6.7 in hopes to replace my Hyperspin front end. I use Rocketlauncher with both since it's already setup for my 24,000+ games. With Hyperspin, all my games show art and other stuff. In LB, my platforms do show the cover art, but not for MAME. I have 5000 MAME games in LB now with no cover/box art. What is the easiest/best way to get it? Should I just try selecting all 5000 MAME games , then choose LB menu item "Tools->Download Metadata and images " option? Thanks.
