Going from Merged to Split set


Lancer-am

Recommended Posts

When I first setup my home cab, I went with a .174 Merged set. Now I have a full .204 set that I would like to change to. Am I going to need to blow away my previous Mame setup in LB and re-import? Or is there a way for me to do the update in place? If I delete the rom list that I have, will it need to redownload all of the media files?

If you have a full romset i recommend using the new fullset importer via tools/import/full mame romset. Just name the platform the same as it is currently and direct the wizard to the folder with the new set and it will overight your old set with the new one. then just uncheck all the media downloads, you can scrape for anything you are missing after the fact.
