DaveZ Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Wasn't sure were to put this one.... Just wondering as it appears the "set" consists of 60 titles, why is ones such as popeye and octopus not included with this set. was just comparing an old old folder I recovered with a newly aquired set. New had 60 folders as I expected, old had 171. a few were emptied so i deleted though i regret now as the names may have had significance. but that folder is still sitting at 159.

Aevans0001 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 We need more info, what kind of "set" did you download each time. FOr instance did you download a tosec set first and then a no-intro set for the new one? certain set creators have very strict controls. So if a title is not a full original copy than they won't list it. It may play but it is not original so they ignore it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveZ Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Oh man I couldn't answer that if I tried. The larger folder was downloaded possably 15 or more years ago. The newer one I am planning on using, which also coincides with the GamesDB page here, I rippped from a beautiful little piece by MADrigal. *REMOVED* For anyone looking for reference.

DaveZ Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) I wasn't attacking you m8. I just don't agree with your label of my post. Yes it has links to files, but those files are NOT rom files Edited January 6, 2018 by DaveZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I do not think he was insulting you. If one just reads your post and sees the link it is easy to believe you linked to roms. Your post said you ripped the roms from Mardigal and then you post a link to Madrigal. Even I thought you posted a rom site. Users may not want to click links they are not aware of so it is possible the user did not click the link for that reason. As to your posted question it is hard to say without knowing where the set came. The one I have has those games you mention and it came from one of the more well known sites.

If you're a fan of G&W and the Tiger hand-helds you'll want to keep your eye on the latest MAME release. Old outdated versions won't cut it here. https://mamedev.emulab.it/haze/2017-new-focus/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveZ Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 I didn't say I ripped "roms" from his set.... However I do apologize if that is how it was read. But again, I stand by what I said, thay are not actually rom files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveZ Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 I am aware of all the legalities, no need to be so argumentative. We shall agree to disagree as by defenition, the nature of what is posted there apears to some to be a ROM files but in actuality are not. I shake your hand and consider my post closed 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Thanks for removing the link, we were debating this one in private trying to decide what to do since it is such an oddball case. If you wanna post the site without a link to it that would be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aevans0001 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 lol but is your question answered all you need to do is edit your post and take out the link. I see now what you see. These are not actually the 1:1 copy of these games. These authors have supposively rewrote the games to look like replicas of the originals. Why they would name them like they are originals are unknown. Back to your question, this is why your collection only has that many roms in it. It is not the actual manufacturers and the games you are missing simply have not been recreated yet. It still falls within questionable position in regards to this forum and for you to attack me over me trying to help you was ridiculous. I would suggest you reference the link that was posted above about mame. These should include the 170 games you are speaking of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveZ Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 Yes everything makes sense with the numbers/amounts now after the above mamedev link. CHEERS. @Aevans0001 - I by no means was attacking you, I was more so defending what I fealt was an attack at myself. I am prolly old enough to be your father if not grandfather, and know well enough not to link to actual ROMS and copyright material. As such it appeared as a stab at me rather than help, as in my mind I technically posted niether. HOWEVER, mission complete, problem solved, another one bites the dust, and lets all head back to the bar! CHEERS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
