[RESOLVED] Getting Parent ROMs

[Frank_C]

I'm a bit of a noob with GameEx. I'm using the latest version of GameEx Evolution. I had the system up and configured using the ROMS, but installed the MAME Starter Pack. Now, when I try to start GameEx or the Setup Wizard, it just says: Getting Parent ROMs and sits at 70% for many hours. Is there a way to undo what the starter pack did?

Thanks.

You did supply your own full set of ROMS, right? 

You won't find that type of content here at all, instead just frontend support to launch those titles. 

The packs being offered here are done so more as a bonus for GameEx members needing artwork and video snaps that haven't already acquired them  on their own or via places like emumovies.

 

An up to date full set and current release of MAME itself are really required to get optimal performance from the GameEx front end.

Thurman, thanks for the reply. I understand that the starter pack just adds all of the extra stuff like the snaps, banners, and sound clips. Yes, I have the full ROM set and can run them all from the Mame64.exe. I just completely uninstalled the GameEx Evolution, deleted all the folders and started again. Now it doesn't get hung up.

Good deal, glad you got it working.

Thanks for reporting back!
