Aevans0001 16 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Needing to upgrade mame and was wondering what the best way is to handle that. 1. download Mame64 2. download Mame Roms and chd to match Mame Version So my question is when i go to add the media to launchbox, what is the best way. Do i simply 1. Create a new Mame category and let it find everything the right way? a. this causes me to lose all my favorites 2. Go to tools, Import, rom files a. this may get duplicate games or still have old files that are no longer used. Please advise Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DeadVoivod 31 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 How I did it, I made a favorites set with MAME 210, I will keep it, I won't update. Do you plan to go through the whole process over and over again with every new MAME release? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aevans0001 16 Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share Posted November 1, 2020 So I can rerun it in the same folder and it will not lose my favorites? Thats really what this is about Quote Link to post Share on other sites
