SonGokuu Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I'm trying to import DoDonPachi Saidaioujou . But the wizard doesn't recognize that game although it exists at the database: (https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/158155 ) I was able to do it importing another game and changing its name and searching for the new metadada. But not at the natural way of importing it. Is there any problem with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is not a game that is supported by MAME after a cease and desist was issued by Cave, hence it being skipped at import.

SonGokuu Posted April 23, 2022 Author Share Posted April 23, 2022 (edited) Mmm....That's explain why those games aren't included at the 0.242 romset anymore. I saw other shmups were missing too, but those don't belong to Cave. For example Ray Crisis or Shikigami no Shiro. Their .zip are not included at the basic merged or split romsets. But their CHD still remain. That's weird. Edited April 23, 2022 by SonGokuu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonGokuu Posted April 23, 2022 Author Share Posted April 23, 2022 Oh, I understand. So it's an unified BIOS so we save space. But how does MAME "know" which game should run? Do we need to make a dummy file with the old names? (Raycris.zip & Shikigam.zip) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadK9 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 You can use a dummy file to add it to LB, once added just remove the dummy file from the roms folder after you have added it to lb. And yes use the same names. If you used the full set importer shouldn't have to do anything, it should of added the game itself even though the dummy file does not exist. As LB doesn't even look at your roms, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
