Ok, somehow I have caused a slight mishap with my mame config.
Let me explain.
I had a perfect split 147 set but discovered that gameEx missed several games when using it (tempest being one I noticed). Personally, I prefer a merged set anyway. So,
Using clrmamepro I created a merged set in mame/merged and pointed gameEx to the roms therein. Great, every rom was now visible and all was yummy and super fluffsome.
Then, I removed the original split roms from the rom directory and moved the merged set there. Launched gameEx and did another rom update. But... I forgot to change the rom path back in the mame settings. So, I got no roms.
Here is where I have a problem. After changing the path to point back to /roms, I can no longer update the rom list? In fact, entering into the mame page in gameEx only shows 3 entries,
All mame games,
Another list (forgotten - think it was last played?)
Adult games.
That's it? No option to update and entering any list just returns back to this.
I scanned the jumbled and confused ini looking for a way to update the list again and found nothing. The options relevant are all set to true?
I cannot post the ini as I ran out of time this morning and am typing this from work - I know that I should know better lol, but thought it still worthy of a post because I am sure it is something obvious and perhaps just me not being able to see the wood for the trees.
Any help would be great, even sarcastic ones.![;)]()
