where to get the catver.ini and controls.xml for any mame version?
Hey, I also applied the crt pi filter and the lines show too small, as if they were hardly there or too small.. what could the reason be? This happens on a more modern laptop.. looks fine on an older one..
Where is Ball? Has ball not been made? The MAME website says it works.. somewhere!
What a good and simple to understand video. thank you.
How do you get music on there? I know this comment won’t be seen because this vid was made 7 years ago
I tend to copy files across using an SFTP client. retropie.org.uk/docs/SSH/
for FULL, are bios included?
This is great. Totally bamboozled trying to get my head around clrmamepro, trying to locate other rom managers that seem to have have been abandoned back in Windows 7, installed and tried Launchbox - but it doesn't go back far enough (I wanted the mame0139 romset). THIS VIDEO WORKED BRILLIANTLY! Thanks so much! Through using this for other builds it's surprising that my 0139 set is only slightly smaller than 0267 (current version) - approximately 200 more valid games (for my tastes) in 13 years. Shocking! There are a lot of calculators and weight loss roms 😅 Not what I planned for my Steam deck 😂😂😂
The actual video starts at 3:50 :)
Video is very distorted and unusable due to that.
Fantastic! A clear, simple way out of game chaos. Thanks!
Great video! Helped me cleaned out my ROM Collection :)

Which part of this removed the config Texted box right before the game loads
Miss your vids 😊
Took me a bit of fiddling but I got there in the end. I was unsure as to wethee the .bat file needed to be preempted by pointing it to the relevant file. Then I neglected to include chdman.exe within the target file. Thank you so much for this tutorial, it really helped.
Top stuff
nice
Are you using a full merged rom set in the video or Non merged set? I did this process with a full merged set but its importing 2900 games out of the 1400 roms. BTW im using LB frontend. Im a bit stumped.
I've been wondering what everyone should use now that RomLister is defunct. This is it!
this is a great video for how to use chdmain, however this is a terrible vid for downloading chdmain. link is not present on either webpage in the links in the description
Thanks for the video. Got my rom folder down to 7gb. I wanted to filter out Japanese but RomLister was looking for rlmacros.txt file. Found it with a search on Google. Just need to go through a wee manual filtering myself now.
Thanks for the great video. Only problem I'm having now is a few seconds after the splash screen and for a split second before the game loads, I get a white rectangular border flashing around the entire edge of the screen. It only does it on my Pi 4 with this set up, but not my Pi 3. Tried disabling and reenabling shaders, changing aspect ratio to core, 3:2, full screen, and back again, nothing works. Any idea what it is? Only thing that is different between the Pi 3 and 4 that I haven't tried is my Pi 4 is outputting HDMI, and my Pi 3 outputting VGA through a VGA666 hat (both 1920x1080). Gonna switch this up later and see if the problem remains or isolated to HDMI out. EDIT: I think the problem is Retroarch related, cause whenever I have Shaders enabled ( using the Curved CRT shader), the flashing white boarder is curved like the shader, as opposed to rectangle when Shaders are off.
Hello, do you know any guide on how to install fbneo on retro pie? I am searching for days and i cant find it. Thanks

it said something like memory could not be 512 pls help
Can you be able to convert img or sub files?
Yes, but you will need to use the command "chdman createhd" for img files.
Awesome, thanks
Thanks for this. Currently overwhelmed by large arcade romsets and was looking for a curated list for batocera, this is perfect :)
You think I could follow this guide to get a current Pi 2B running one MAME ROM, Frogger, to boot straight into the ROM when powered on? I'd like the fastest boot straight into the ROM, closer to an actual Frogger cabinet.
Awesome Q: I've trimmed down my unmerged romset .262 to around 2k games with future updates (.262 to .263, etc) do I need to just download the update (my roms are unmerged but it seems all updates on progetto are merged) then I download the update DAT file, run the update & dat thru clrmame and rebuild to my current romset directory? I know it will look to update 'every' game in .263, but it will only find my filtered romset. Will it simply update my romset and ignore the rest? I also know there's a dat file export at arcadeitalia for clrmame maybe I can go that route and create a DAT file of only my filtered games? Hope the q makes sense. Right now when I want to update I'm just doing a clean install from unmerged scratch using clr mame & the full set dat (I know about half of what I need to know, so forgive if the question is witless)
Which emulator are you using? This should help understand rebuilding. ua-cam.com/video/wyonq8TQdYo/v-deo.html
I'm deciding between mame, mameui & arcade64 playing around with all 3. Also messing w HBMame on a separate note. I have all 3 (4 w hb) latest versions up and running. I have Hyperspin as well as a front end but I'll work on configuring that after i've mastered my back end mame emulator. I'll look at video ty for reply you've been a big help@@Floob
This video was a great tip for me as I am setting up my RetroPi by now. Thanks.
For me it does not work. For some reason it cannot recognize chdman as name of an executable. Everything else befor (Dir and stuff) looks exactly the same as in your video. :/
I am very new to this. I am trying to help my dad out as he is way more clueless about this type of stuff than me.. I am usually just a hardware guy but I am trying to help him get sky shark on his raspberry pi. Your video has helped me more than any other video on UA-cam and I get literally 99% of the stuff you are saying the only thing I dont understand is where you are getting/how you know the romset you used is non merged. I am at the part of putting the rollback rom in the rebuilder. I just dont want to put the wrong rom set in and mess anything up
The rebuild process will only rebuild to the xml/dat file you give it, so you could throw in all sorts of romsets (merged or otherwise) as the input, and the output will only ever match (or try to match) what your xml/dat file has. The bit at 38:00 in the video shows how to set what merge type the output romsets should be. When you download the romsets from the internet they are usually marked what type they are, I cant link but a search of "MAME 0.261 ROMs (non-merged)" should help.
@@Floob how do you get the xml/dat from the pi to your computer? The one you need to write to. I know about going on the pi and hitting tab to access mame settings to do it there but where is it going? And how do I get it to my pc.. I apologize ahead of time as I said before I’m super new to roms and emulation. Software is my weakness
after about 6 hours of watching your video over and over... I think my main issue is obtaining the XML/DAT file from my pi.. when I go into the menu from hitting tab while I was in DODON it said it was producing it I just could not find where
Here is a guide with Filezilla helpdeskgeek.com/how-to/how-to-ssh-or-sftp-into-your-raspberry-pi/
Very helpful video thank you
GREAT video man!
Thank you very much for this excellent video explained in simple words for beginners like me who have difficulty mastering Mame 2003 plus. I learned a lot of things, especially with the very useful tables that I didn't know. A quick question to make sure I understand everything: do you have to extract the XML file each time when Mame 2003 plus is updated via Retroarch? Thanks again for this perfect video.
Whilst most games would probably be fine with the update, when the version of Mame2003plus gets updated it'll likely have a slightly different xml file, so its worth updating your romsets to this new version to keep maximum compatibility.
@@Floob Thank you very much for this precise answer. I will follow your advice while learning to familiarize myself with Clrmamepro.
Amazing! Thank you! I also found it helpful to remove all of the additional emulators as part of the "main packages" and I also removed the splash screen along with that so now I see almost nothing (including RetroPie and Emulation Station screens) till it boots.
Hacve a video on removing the splash screen?
I don't understand why in MAMEROOT=c:\MAME instead of select the MAME folder, you selected the ROMSet
So we change the path here to where the romsets are: ua-cam.com/video/NoK7SBuxSEw/v-deo.html because the script uses that to know where they are - it doesnt care where the actual mame executables are as its just moving files, not running anything.
@@Floob ohh, ok. Thanks for reply. Makes sense now! I've tested and I can confirm that the video is very helpful ;)
i think merged is good for building sets from. like if you keep a full up to date merged set and keep your rollbak set up to date nest to it you could easily spit out lots of sets without using as much storage as a full non merged set would.
Thanks mate 👍🏼
nothing in the retropie folder :(
This is fabulous. I planned to take a whole day and filter out the roms manually. This makes it so much easier
it works for sega dreamcast emulators ?
