For the past 2 days I've been trying to setup gameex to read rom files from a UNC path however it's not working... 1) ROMPATH=\\tower\Emulation\Roms\MAME Gameex fails to load with "Invalid Rom Path" error. 2) ROMPATH=C:\Games\MameUI32\roms;\\tower\Emulation\Roms\MAME Gameex loads but fails to see any roms located within the UNC path Using mameui32.exe I have the UNC path I've setup in gameex settings and I'm able to launch games fine.
