Changing MAME to play US titles

[SelaromGamer]

Hello All,

Loving Launchbox more and more!

 

Ok so, when I imported the MAME Romset I set up to prefer World version when launching a game. Now I find myself wanting games to launch using US version and I'm manually right-clicking a game and selecting US version. Anyway to change this default selection? I tried changing MAME emulator settings from 'Manage Emulators"  but had no luck.

 

Thanks in advance

Edit the game and change it's front facing rom, I believe it's under the additional apps section but I could be wrong since I don't have games setup that in my LB to check.

Just run the mame fullset importer again, specifying the US region this time, and uncheck all the media downloads.

Thanks.

 

Should I run it without removing the romset first?

Another thing thought,

It apparently created another 'platform' named 'Arcade'. It points to the same game. If I edit the platform without sub-playlists to remove it from 'root', it won't allow me. If I select 'Delete' it prompts me to delete all the metadata along with the roms. Any way to edit this?? How could I remove this from here?
