Home Page Forums Archives MacMAME seeking assistance

Hello, friends. I am new to this board. I am also new to using MacMame. I have recently downloaded the MacMame emulator and was successful in downloading a few roms. However, most of the roms i attempt to play result in failure. MacMame tells me that i am missing necessary files to play the game. I have tried several different versions of these specific roms as well as separate sites. It is always the same result. I was wondering if someone may be able to shed some light on this problem of mine. Is it a compatibility issue with mac or are the files broken? Thanks for the time. Hope to see you all around

MacMAME is more than 2 years out of date now, so any ROMs you find will likely not match it (ROMs change as MAME does for various reasons). If you are using Mac OS X, there's a new version of MAME called MAME OS X which will work better with up to date ROMs.
