ridley869 Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 I was testing some roms earlier today via mame 0.257, and many roms couldn't start because it's missing xyz.key. what is this key extension and how can I resolve this? I'm relatively new to dealing with mame, so any help I would really appreciate, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To ensure Mame runs properly it is typically best to download a Mame rom set from a good site (best place is Google "pleasuredome io" and it will be the first site listed). Then run that current rom set against the matching version of Mame. Recommend reading this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
