Mega Duck

OK so I'm having an issue importing roms for this system. I am using the MAME roms and they work fine in stand alone MAME. When I try an importing them in LB only one rom shows up in the list. I try and import them using retroarch as emulator check marking force using MAME metadata and still only one game will import. Doesn't matter which emulator I use.

EDIT:

Ok I got it working but only because I placed the rom folder back where it originally was. I want to move that rom folder in LB games folder and when I try an import them again with the new rom path it only wants to upload one game. Grrr

Thanks

If it's of any interest to you, retroarch has a Mega Duck core called sameduck_libretro. It may be a bit easier to set up than mame.

Same thing happens. It only wants to import only one game (Marchen Maze). I just can't figure out why it doesn't import all 24 games.

Launchbox does not support software list roms. There is a plugin in the downloads section that should help though.

Weird because I am using the MAME software roms for this system and it's working in Launchbox using MAME as the emulator. The problem I'm having is that I want to move the rom folder in the LB Games folder and when I try to import them again it doesn't work. I'll the the software importer.

Of the 25 games that are in MAME's software list "megaduck", "Marchen Maze" happens to be the only one that also has an arcade machine with the same name.  That's why it imports and none of the rest do.  So basically, you got lucky with the one.  ;)  As you've found, LaunchBox only imports MAME's arcade machines and not any their software lists.  

It's my understanding the plugin Neil mentioned will do what you're wanting.
