Lordmonkus Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Those look like games that require CHDs to function, did you download the CHD set as well as the normal set ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 CHD stands for Compressed Hunk Data and these are large compressed files of hard drive or laser disk media that was in certain arcade cabinets that worked with the main board chips. They are separate downloads from regular Mame rom sets. I don't know where to tell you to get the ones for your set but if you Google "pleasuredome git io" you should find a website that has complete up to date Mame sets and CHD packs. You should also update to the latest version of Mame to run them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Using a mismatched Mame version and rom set version is not a good idea, while some games may work many will not and depending how far apart the two are in versions the more games that won't work.
