Hello

Please try checking your roms with RomCenter 3 beta version to see what happens. Note that this is a beta version so it's best to backup your roms before doing anything with RC3.

I tired the RC3 Same thing happends :(

Let me give you some names of some of the roms that say there bad

005
Eight Man
Ghost Pilots
Red Baron

These games will play but it says there missing one or more roms but MAME will still play them I think if MAME will still play them then they should be Yellow what do you all think. :)


Thanks for your time :)

Hello again I just made a Data file for MAME 0.123u1 mine shows I have 19 bad roms better than last time I think I will start making my own data files for RomCenter.

The old one I got for mame 123 came from http://www.logiqx.com/Dats/

Hi

Can we check with 005 ?
I add a complete 005 rom (without samples).
I get the following screen with rc3 beta1:
Rc view of 005 rom
Rc view of 005 rom
rcb1_005.png (9.62 KiB) Viewed 15399 times
If I try to run game from rc3 (after setting emulator parameters, and check the pause dos box), I get the following result.

Code: Select all

mameplus 0.123\mamep.exe" -rp "D:\Mes documents\My Games\mame\test" "005"
6331.sound-u8 ROM NEEDS REDUMP
WARNING: the game might not run correctly.
Average speed: 99.90% (28 seconds)
This is correct. Mame complains about the bad dumped rom, but as it is available, it still runs.
Rc3 shows it yellow because samples are missing.

What does rc3 display in your case ?
