gizmo Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 hi i am looking at the video on adding mame but cannot see what the default command parameter from the video thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 It's the same no matter what core you use: -L "cores\mame.dll" That command does include the quotes. Just look at the other default commands in the Associated Platforms list and copy the same format, but plug in the core you need and in this case should be mame.dll.

gizmo Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 hi thanks for your help and advice sorry i think i should have posted this in my other post mame , what i am asking is when you first import roms into launchbox it asks for default command line parameter is this the same as core? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 No you don't put anything there. The commands that are on the Associated Platforms page are the commands you need to keep and make sure are correct. This is kind of the same box as those, except this passes the commands to the entire emulator, which again we don't need for RetroArch. Edit: Oh right MAME. You don't need to put commands there unless you don't want to. There are commands you can pass through there if you would like, but you shouldn't have to if I recall.

SentaiBrad Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Ok I was a bit wrong, sorry about that. MAME should work with no default command line parameters, but when you add the emulator it should automatically populate with "-skip_gameinfo -nowindow" for MAME, no quotes.

gizmo Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 many thanks for your reply , after i have added all the games allthough i uncheck everything apart from certain boxes, i get games up that are doubled , no pictures , and no game works not even in mame i am looking for a bios pack for mame 173 , i looked on the site you gave me by pm but nothing there , when you get a bios pack does it have to match the version of mame that you are using ? with the games i had over 33,000 files but only got 4,300 games would this be correct i would have thought that there would be more games . thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I believe that all of the bios files should be included in the ROM set. If you have a full set. A lot of those games are clones, regional duplicates, nonworking, mahjong, Poker, stuff that won't add anything to your value and will just make MAME overwhelming to sort through (Its already convoluted when you have 4K worth of ROMs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmo Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 many thanks for your reply the download was over 52gb so i would have thought it was a full split set, i cannot see the bios files in the rom set so not 1 game works , in launchbox or mame thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
