Importing Full MAME .217 into Launchbox

Recommended Posts

I am trying to import a split MAME .217 into Launchbox as a full ROMset.  I previously had .213.  I updated MAME itself, and tried to import .217 as a separate platform, which was successful, but I have exactly the same ROMS as I had in .213 (2817), and I know things like Star Wars arcade was updated to working now.  What did I do wrong?

I imported a non-merged MAME .217 within the last few weeks and Star Wars arcade shows up and works great. (Didn't realize it was there and tested just now)

Given that you got the exact same number of games, my uneducated guess is that the import ran off of the .213 list rather than the .217 list. You might try removing the MAME emulator entries you have now and just adding a new one for .217. If that works and you want to keep the .213, you should be able to just re-add that as an additional emulator after the new import works out.

If you used the full Mame set import option I do not believe Jason updated it to 217 yet. I just ran the importer to check and as you can see Star Wars Arcade (swa.zip) is not present.
