(RESOLVED)I need help!!!!!

[ilicurtisili]

im trying to set up GameEx on my cpu and cant get the roms to work. i XXXXX put each game in its own folder. there is multiple roms for the same game in each folder.

i can only get 1 rom to work at a time, by linking it to the folder the game is in. but it still pulls up multiple of that game.

does anyone know a way to fix this? do i need to delete everything and installthem a different way?

Additionally, please refrain from discussing how you obtained ROMs as that is a violation of forum rules... thanks!

Looks like you extracted wrong. You probably held down the right mouse button, dragged to the new folder, and selected "Extract All Into Seperate Folders"... you want to select "Extract All Here". That will put all the roms in 1 folder.

i guess thats what i did. thanks for the help.

how would i go about the multiples that show up?

[hansolo77]

There shouldn't be multiples, unless you're referring to the different regions. There are different versions of ROMs depending on where it is sourced from, like USA, Europe, Japan, etc. Also, there are different versions based on the version of game, like 1.0, 2.0, etc. You need to go through and get rid of the ones you don't want, or keep them all like I did (too lazy).

You might want to try the no-intro or hyperlist rom sets vs goodmerge. not near as many versions of each game.
