Hello, I am new to mGalaxy and I am setting it up for MAMEUI64 (0.197). I have added the files to the MAME folder, Cataver, etc. and when I run the DB setup I get the following error "The chosen application does not appear to be MAME!". I am not sure how to proceed. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi Zygons,
You don't need MAMEUI...only the 'official' mame version (http://mamedev.org/release.html)
It's all what you need! (mGalaxy will download the catver.ini, nplayers.ini, ...files for you if it can't find them in the Mame folder)

So, simply download the official Mame version,  link to it in mGalaxy_Runway then create the database  :)

Don't hesitate to come back if you need further assistance!
