I made a quick database for arcade emulators. It skipped all the steps and went strait to phase 3 with the categories!

Anyways if someone would be so kind to try it out and see if you are getting the correct games in the correct categories that would be great! I seem to have the same problem as before where they are correct in the database but gameex is pulling them up wrong. Clearing the dbcache file didnt work this time. Anyways, I dont know if this is from the way my MDB is or if its something still screwy on my end.

heres the file, thanks!

Arcade.zip

No sweat. I was thinking about it, and I dont think the xml files have the rom names in there. only the game names. I think I had a similar conversation with stu when I was making the catver.ini for mame.

I think that might be a problem for any kind of full database we might end up making. Gameex would need the rom name to load all the info from, and we would have to somehow connect those rom names with the game names in the xml file.

All I did was load my catver.ini into excel and then load the rom names into "goodname" and the categories I created into "category" It should be close enough until someone can get something worked out to create a full database.

Well, if anyone else uses raine or any arcade emulator that uses the standard mame romzip names (the roms inside can be named anything). Try this out and let me know how it works for you. I dont think there is any database for these emulators at all right now so this should only be an addition.
