Here is a list of the systems I currently have loaded in my copy of mGalaxy
I have a little over 130 systems
I have about 96 % working with no issues
However there are a few giving me fits
In some it will say "Game Loading". Load the emulator , and drop me back to mGalaxy
I have to admit those are mostly MAME games . (I have them marked with an asterix)
I think they are missing roms, but according to MAME these systems are working
The other ones (marked with an "M" take me to the emulator menu and I have to load it from there
Do-able,  but I would like it better if it would just take me to the game
Any help would be greatly appreciated

It is the ones marked with an asterisk that I get nowhere with either through mGalaxy or otherwise.
Even straight from Mame I get booted.
I know what the issue is, Mame is not finding the ROMS, but according to a file check, the Roms are there in the directory
I cannopt figure it out/
The other games will work ion standalone. It is just mGalaxy has me load them manually through the emulator.

Perhaps a version issue ? At every new Mame version you need to update lot of roms files.
On my side I m using Mame only for Arcade, you are sure Mame support them, lot of Mame hardware are just beta. For exemple for the Acorn Archimedes, the recommanded emulator is not Mame but Arculator or ArcEm.

Sorry for the extra work, but could you please add to this list the emulator that is used for each system? That's the most important thing, so that we can help you!

Okay here is what I still need.


Game & Watch                Mame
Bit Corp.  Gamate            Mame
Game Park                      Mame
Mega Duck                      Mame
Nokia N Gage                  EKA 2l1
Spectra Video                  Retroarch or Bluesmx
Tiger Hand Held              Mame
Tomy Tutor                      Mame
V-Smile                            Mame
Final Burn Neo                Final Burn Neo
PS3                                  RPCS3
XBox 360                          Xenia
XBox                                Xemu 
If I can get the Mame stuff to work through mGalaxy I will be happy. Even if I have to use retroarch. As long as they will load.
They work off my desktop, but I would rather have the simplicity of mGalaxy with out the hassle of finding them


Thanks......
