Having problems with Mame not listing all my roms.

[eatfreshsub]

So I just recently updated to 0.148 and a good amount of my games aren't showing up. There's about 500 of them not there, I've got my list filtered in MameUI (Clones,Mechanical,Unavailable,Non-Working) so this number should be fairly accurate. The games I am missing, aren't specifically casino games, I only know of 2 that should definitely be in the list, The Simpsons Arcade Game and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Turtles in Time. I'm fairly certain there's a giant chunk of decent games in there that I wouldn't like to miss. I have run Update List Info multiple times and still no change.Total rom count after filters should be about 3050 and its currently at 2564. I am using a merged set.

Thanks in advance

You didn't indicate what version of GameEx you are running. Can you also provide a copy of your log.txt file please? Thanks!

Did you update your ROMs to the latest MAME build using ROMLister or CLRMAMEPro?

Please do not discuss where or how ROMs can be obtained

HI eatfreshsub. I edited your post in order to conform with our forum rules and guidelines. Please refrain from discussion of where or how ROMs are obtained. We are not a particularly strict forum, but some rules we must follow in order to protect our community. Thanks man.

All the same, it sounds like you've resolved your issue then?

Sorry didn't mean to violate any rules, this issue still isn't resolved. I was just mentioning I never updated my own roms, I replaced both my old roms and emu with a 0.148 merged set and MameUI 64bit. They are installed in different folders, both sets are completely separate and intact, the games I mentioned not showing up (TMNT Turtles in Time and The Simpsons Arcade Game) both show up and work in my new set using MameUI 64bit, but they dont appear in my Gameex Mame List, along with 500 or so other roms.

Hmm ... I noticed something although it may not completely describe the problem.

GameFilter=Prototype;Hardware;Quiz

NoAdult=True

NoMahjong=True

NoCasino=True

I noticed that you didn't mention the above categories of ROMs in your MameUI filter. Are these categories showing up in MameUI but not GameEx? That might be one place to start. Verify that your GameEx filters are an exact match to your MameUI filters. Are you using MameUI in conjunction with catver.ini? It may also be worthwhile to verify that GameEx is using the same catver.ini.

'Verify roms' would make a difference as well. Or is 'Only Working'?

I'm not super knowledgeable of Mame, but I do have Gameex's Mame Setup pointed at the catver.ini in the data folder. Also, you are more then likely right that a good chunk of them are adult games etc. however that doesn't explain why I'm missing The Simpsons, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Turtles in Time, and apparently all the Street Fighter games as well.

If Verify roms isn't active, my list comes up empty.

Did you Update List after turning off Verify ROMs via Setup Wizard?

Yes, the only time games show up, with verify activated is if I have them in the do not filter section.
