mame import error

Recommended Posts

i had everything working and then mame stopped working.  so i deleted arcade all together and am trying to reimport a full mame set.  it gets to the parsing and then gives me:

data at the root level is invalid.  line 5123864, position 1

i am using a real version of mame64, version 217.  i even deleted all of my mame ini's thinking there might be some conflict so this is basically a new install of mame.  i did run mame first to generate the cfg's and ini's.  then i try the full import and i get the above.

please help!

Not sure if you've resolved this already, but I was getting a very similar error on MAME 232 RomSet. I found another thread on this forum which mentions devreorder (the dinput order remapping tool) and that it was causing a conflict. I've since removed it from my system and was able to complete the import.

Hope that helps others maybe even yourself!
