mGalaxy forum

I read and followed your tutorial to set up MAME. 

I launch mGalaxy and see 'MAME' however I do not see any games listed.  I can launch all games via MAME. I'd love to use MG if I can get it to work. This looks like a slick front end and I like all the premium options. I hope I can get it to work correctly.

I don't know how to help...following the step-by-step video tutorial should end to a working system !
Anyway, the simplest think to start with is:
- Open mGalaxy Runway
- Drag the 'MAME' system from the left column to the right column (User Systems)
- Open your Mame folder and drag the application (.exe) file to the 'Executable' field (or click the 'Executable' button to pick it from a file select dialog window)
- Drag the folder which contains your mame rom files to the 'Roms' field (or click the 'Roms' button to select the folder from a dialog window)
- Finally, click 'Save' and launch mGalaxy

You should see all of your files listed...but with their rom name. Can you see them?

Thank you fort the reply. This is what I did but I do not see the games. I see MAME in mGalaxy but not the roms.

With the steps described in the post below you should have a list displayed every time!
If you don't, I see two possible reasons:
- you've applied filters on your list (like 'Only show favorites'..and you don't have favorites)
- your roms file format is not correct! (Allowed format for MAME: .zip, .7z, .chd)

Thank you for the reply.

The format is fine. The list is set to show 'Working ...'. I will set to 'All' and see if the roms are visible.

The list is set to show 'Working ...'.

I suppose that you're meaning "Available roms"?

I think that this post is related to your problem and might help you!!
