[RESOLVED] Mame System Update Pack Invalid Rom Path

[dalob]

I have downloaded the Mame system update pack but when I run it I get the error "Invalid Rom Path"

My setup is

Gammex is in C:\Gameex

Roms are in D:\MAME 0184 Roms (couldnt fit them on my C drive)

Any ideas?????

 

Thanks

Jason

The MAME system pack?

 

The only update pack I'm familiar with is for romsets, and in addition to not being available here,  is made to be used with a set manager.

Sorry.  Have used the wrong terminology.  I meant the Mame System Pack (Forget the update bit)  See attached

During installation it prompts you for directory paths.  Did you point these correctly?

 

[dalob]

Yup.  Here is a screennshot

Even if I choose C:\GameEx\Emulators\MAME\roms as my rom path, I get the same error

It is designed to work with a full rom set. I believe it looks for 005.zip to confirm the folder path is valid.

Awesome, thanks Tom.  The set I have is an upgraded set from the 0161 rom set.  I upgraded this to 0184 using clrmamepro.  For some reason the 005.zip rom was missing.  Just re-downloaded it, added it to my roms and it worked.

 

 

 

Thanks again.

Hi@dalob ... I edited your post already but please make note of the forum rules and don't mention where you get your ROM sets from. Next time we'll have to formally warn you. 😉
