Hi all. Great front end here as I've been using with name 159. However, now I have 167 and with full chd I have tried to install but get no rom list . I have had a look at the 164 XML file on another topic but I got lost ?? Really am a noob on this part as mgalaxy did all the legwork. Can mgalaxy run on 167 or should I go back to 159. Thanks all.

I'm new at this too (or at least I'm updating a 12 year old DOS based cocktail cabinet with a new Windows 10 PC and MAME 167 - a big change!
I think you'll find the problem is the changed file formats from 159 onwards.
Have a look here;

Yeah just seen. I used mala in the past until support stopped and can't get it to run past 160,  not nearly as good as mgalaxy. Nice layout this with fb support and many others. Just buying parts for my new cab build and want all up to date setup. I've got mgalaxy with 159 on another cab and its fine.

I am using MAME 1.67, found this link and downloaded the xml file and I get a list of games.

I am still working on getting the art work to appear.
