Sega Model 2 Video snaps

[daiwthomas]

Guys, probably a real dumb question but I've just started downloading video packs for my emulators.

I just downloaded the sega model 2 vids but have no idea as to where to put the video files (flv format)

I can see the option for the other emulators such as nintendo64 for example but sega model 2 settings are in the advanced mame part of the setup!

Please help a real noob to all this

Many Thanks!

No need to worry, you just place them in your Mame videos folder.

The original videos recorded using simple MAME will have to be replaced.

There is no "correct" or "incorrect" place to put the extra content for you roms (videos, snaps, box art, etc). There are a few ways that are common though.

1. Split out everything by type of content, then by system. (e.g., c:\emulation\box art\NES)
2. Split everything by system, then content. (e.g., c:\emulation\NES\box art)
3. Split everything by emulator, then content. (e.g., c:\emulation\Nestopia\box art)

I personally prefer option 2, but I can see uses for the other ways. I think the consensus around these parts is also with method 2, although I do recall discussions talking about the other directory structures. Do whatever makes the most sense to you.
