As I'm getting back into emulation recently and updating my roms, I just updated my MAME roms to a .169 set (or so I thought). Now all my NeoGeo games are showing as "missing" in MAME. I'm trying to find out if there is a new NeoGeo.zip parent, as this would explain why they are all missing. Can anyone tell me if this file changed in recent versions and what I should be looking for? Thanks for the help.

If all of your NeoGeo games are causing a common issue, the fault may lie with your NeoGeo Bios version. Since Mame version 0167b the NeoGeo Bios rom requires an additional file called v2.bin

Thanks for the info... that gets me headed in the right direction. I had an update neogeo.zip... when I looked in it, it only had the v2.bin file you mentioned but none of the old files, so I tried merging it with an old version but that didn't work... so, I think I just need to look around for that new bios... I seem to be finding a lot of bad ones though.

Ok, found a working file and I'm back in business. Thanks again for your help, I appreciate it. In the process, I found that I had a couple other bad or outdated bios files as well, and I've got them fixed now too.
