Now...how can i see in the list games split in 2 or 3 rars ?
i have simsons.rar it says im missing a file.. so how should i name the second file to make it work. i used different combinations and i cannot make it work.
simsonsa. / simsonsb. = not shown in the list
simsons. / simsonsa or simsonsb = only shows simsons. in the list and it still says file missing.
I even zipped both files into 1 whole file and doesnt work
mine is in MyDocs/roms and works fine although my roms folder is lower case, anyway u can try lower case roms folder in MyDocs later.
Now missing files could mean 2 things,
1.You may need to insert a bios to work
or
2. You have got hold of the incorrect romset
In Simpsons case no bios is needed u need the correct romset.
Google the correct romset for the correct version of Mame and all should be ok.
When i get home i will check my PC version of Mame 0138u1 and let you know which Simpsons romset you need.
To test romsets use your PC version (0138U1) it is the same as the N900 version and much more convenient to use then if all ok transfer roms to N900 and enjoy.

weird isnit ?it worked under user/roms .. dont know what happened
cause with psx the bios has to be in MyDocs , i had it like that, but i take it out to user, and is still working...
Simsons need 2 files 1 is like 2 mb and the other 1 like 200KB.
I have a dvd backup with all my working games and emulators.
So therefore i know i have the complete rom set.
ok let me know, cause theres a few it gives me the same error, like moonwalker, Good old retro games jaja
those are the simpsons files i have, and they dont work ..
look i was doing some testing, it was hard to get the pc mame version Mameplus 0.138u1. and i took out my old mame version 0.91
On 0.138u1 says im missing a file named (simpsons.nv) . It doesn even have a folder named nvram. Well i found the file and still not working....
On my old version plus 0.91 with only simpsons - 2,427kb and simpsons4pa - 121kb works flawlessly ....
so i cannot run it in my pc not even in my n900 with the new version
update.
after several tests and not giving up. i added .nv file to simsons file and it works on moonwalker, checking the zip files inside. last file had extension .bin that extension was wrong. i changed it to ic4
If not go to the official mame website and look at previous releases you can get it from there.(pc version)
also why are you looking for mameplus?
i google it and mame plus was the only 0138u1 version i found. i went to mame website and i only found 138 . i download it. but it didnt have any install inside. so i delete it.
do you have your phone overclock? mine is not and the game runs slow the music breaks down.
No my phone is not overclocked and simpsons and moonwalker are running between 50 - 70% speed with sound issues.
Mame 0138u1 unpacked is only 38.3 MB you need to download the binary file and the reason i am going on about the PC version is that it is easier to test roms on, with compatibility the same as the N900 version it saves a lot of time, obviously the performance is different.
On a side note
I have asked Flandry (the porter of mame for N900) kindly if he can port an older version of mame to see if performance is better on the roms that struggle to work on the latest port.
So maybe in the future we may have an older version to use for better performance on the classics (simpsons, moonwalker, nemesis, r-type etc) which we can run along side the latest version.
