Trying to run mame emulator

[james636]

Guys, I'm trying to run the mame emulator, but when ever I open the mame.exe file, this pops up


So I open a command prompt window and navigate to the file and this happens



What am I doing wrong?

MAME is a command-line program.
Not point-click Windowsware.

I believe WinKawaks may work for you (CPS, NeoGeo).
WinMAME I think is the other one.

Read some emulation sites.

Isn't there a Mame32 that runs in Windows?

it looks like he has no ROMS -- of if he does, it should be "name "name of game" [options] in the command prompt -- as it shows clearly

hes trying to run the command line version.. there is a mame32 on the mame site.. jsut need to get that.. also he needs to point it to the proper dirs. IE rom art etc.. best get the mame32 exe first..

http://mameplus.emu-france.com/download/mameplus-0.92u2000-bin.exe thats a link to the mame plus versin . rev 092 still need roms..

The roms are in my roms folder. In my experience, the roms are opened from the emulator. That is what I'm having problems opening

I hope you left them zipped.

if you run that version of mame i posted.. put all roms in the rom dir..leave zipped then goto settigns and point the dirs to their proper places all will be fine.. if you run the audit all roms under the file hedder it will locate all working roms and non/broken roms for you also.
