[RESOLVED] GameEX hangs when reading listinfo.dat (MAME 0.162)

[B2K24]

Hangs at 25% for hours now. Deleting listinfo.dat and executing update list also produces same result.

I believe this is the note in question (relative to MAME 0.162):

Note that output XML is changed so rom managers and frontends need to get updated too.

Thanks, looking now.

Done. Just finishing testing.

Ill mention in the release notes but in the MAME XML output there needs to be a way to differentiate between an arcade game and a non arcade game but if that does not fit the MAME mission statement I suggest differentiating between a game (1:1) and a system (1:many).

Since there is the possibility of using a arcade.ini (which would only apply to arcade games or "old" MAME), my guess is, that you can also filter games by "arcade" .

Thanks Tom for the quick fix. It's working great now
