Ok. I have download mame 034 and put it in gpmm with my other folds when i extract the mame it creates a new folder gpmm in gpmm when i ope up the gpmm folder all the .fxe are there with aanother fold called mamo34 which it tells me to place the roms in here erther zip or as folders. Now as far as i know i have put my rom files in mame 034 and these are pacman and when i press the classics fxe it tells me that there are no roms avibal I have tried other but still have no luck what i am i doing wrong?

Hi

you probably don't have the right Romsets. The Romsets you should be looknig for are the MAME 0.34 sets. Most (if not all) Romsites carry latter romsets (usualy 0.94). These romsets are most likely not gonna work. Check out the MAME forum on this forum on how to convert your MAME romsets to 0.34.
 
I am not quite sure I understand your problem. But put all the .FXE files in \GPMM and all your zipped ROMS in \GPMM\MAME034 ... If you still can't get it to work, then you probably have the wrong romset, as Horscht has pointed out already ...

you have duplicate gpmm folders

you shouldnt have one inside the other :D

dont put a zip on the smc and extract it there :blink: - do it on your HDD then copy just the fxe + the rom folder (mame034) into the gpmm folder!

inside gpmm on the smc you should have 7 .fxe mame progs + a folder called mame034 which has zipped roms in it!

sorry to hijack the threat mate, but i dont think my question is worthy of another thread. plus i think it may already be answered.

But is there a list of top games for each fxe? Like best of Capcom or best of Taito?

So i try and buy the gamma boards off ebay, without buying the crap ones.

Cheers.
