ya no mame.ini file or folder. Okay, just set it to default arcade

what's my associated platform?

no ini folder

Tried that setting didn't work. Will try the mame.ini thingy

Thanks for the quick reply. Ya I guess I'll have to try another version. Have used mame with launchbox before and worked like a charm but that computer died and I forgot where I got the mames from lol! So I just tried to find the roms and emulator that matched. Usually I can just click on the mame exe and then it's a totally different interface, but with this one I didn't even know how to play at first until i realized typing worked. Launchbox just does nothing now. Also I used to use the exe file that was square, orange, and blue. Not the baby blue M. Long story short I'll try another emulator romset I guess.

For some reason I have to type in the name of the rom file when i open the mame exe file. So opening from launchbox doesn't work. Tried changing command line parameters but no luck. Please help.
