Lordmonkus Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 In my arcade platform it's 2754 but I filtered out all the junk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theolsonhome Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Interesting. As you can see I have no pacman so there must be an option I missed. Did you import roms with clones being imported as apps Recommended or just as clones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theolsonhome Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I installed 8.6 fresh and imported mame .201. Not sure what the problem is and am hoping I can figure it out. I thank you for your help as I now know it should have imported. Not sure if it would have to do with the mame.exe being used? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I used the official command line Mame 200 for the import. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I use Split but it doesn't matter with the new Mame importer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMadMan007 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 So apparently there is a new MAME importer... I deleted my Arcade list, and then reimported with the new importer. I have roughly 500 roms in my folder and it took quite a while to import, it looks like it imported over 2,500 roms now. Is there something that I missed or do I have to have the full MAME set now? I was using a modified version of LordMonkus' No Filler batch to filter out only the roms I want. So my ROMs folder only has 500 games in it, I point the MAME importer to that folder, then it imports 2,500 games.. Not really sure what I'm doing wrong.

Lordmonkus Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 The new importer is meant to be used with a full set of roms, it imports based off the Mame data file and not the actual roms in your rom folder. For hand picked sets such as my No Filler set you should be using the old import method. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espidie79 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Hi!! I have an issue about the new MAME import tool I´m using a Split 0.200 Fullset – I deleted my previous import to begin again. I´ve updated images and metadata. But the problem is that a couple of lists are not generated. They are Atomiswave, Daphne, Naomi, Hikaru and Sega Model 3 And the sega model 2 is partially generated only with 5 games Ive tried to import from several different ways´, trying different options combinations , but always found the same result. Is there anybody encountered the same problem? Many thanks for any guidance you could give me PS: I´m not an english speaker, so sorry for any errors or mistakes in my writing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Carr Posted September 5, 2018 Author Share Posted September 5, 2018 @theolsonhome If you import hacks, sometimes unfortunately those hacks can end up as the main game, which is why you're seeing Hangly Man and such. This is due to the region prioritization, but I think it could be improved to skip over the hacks, so I'll look to do that here soon. If you skip the hacks though, then you won't have that problem.

TheMadMan007 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 When the new MAME importer says clones will be imported as “apps”... what does that mean exactly? I don’t remember hearing that phrase in regard to LaunchBox before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t remember hearing that phrase in regard to LaunchBox before It means that the clones will be available to run from the right-click menu, or from the game details menu in Big Box.
