Lordmonkus Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 That is up to you but just so you are aware updating using the update packs is not a simple extract to your roms folder and overwrite when asked, doing that will break any games that you are overwriting. You need to use a program that merges the files correctly such as clrmamepro and that is a very tricky program to use. The update files only contain the actual updated rom files so for example if game1.zip contains rom a,b and c and the updated game1.zip file has a new rom b it only contains that b file and not a and c. So now when you overwrite the old file the new one only has b which in turn breaks the rom completely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be easier just to download a more recent set. 0.194 is the most current. Lately, I cannot find anything anywhere. I got the paradise premium. I guess ill just manually update. How do you update download the update packs and? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 If you want newer Mame rom sets use pleasuredome, their Mame sets are ratio free so they are freely available to anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBrac Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Should I get merged or split. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Split or Non-Merged is the recommended sets, Merged can be problematic when you want to pick which version of the game you want such as the 2 player versions of Gauntlet or TMNT for example.

Lordmonkus Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Honestly I do not know. For my CPS stuff I use an older FBA set and the FBA2012 core. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 FBA and Mame and not 100% compatible, there are differences in the roms used by both emulators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you download a current Mame rom set from Pleasuredome you should have no issues running CPS1, 2, and 3 in current Mame builds. One of my machines has the 193 set and I have all CPS systems set up in it running through Mame. I have not used stand alone FBA in quite some time.

I got one of games I knew was Capcom , I tried to import under the arcade platform that uses mame2014 libretro. It failed to import on launchbox. I will try again.
