xyzzy Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Hello,I have an issue where a mame game is not showing up in the list. I have all filtering turned off and have even added the name to the don't filter list. I have all the required files for the game.. it played fine when i was using a different Front End. Not sure if i am allowed to mention game names... If I am, let me know and I will post it. Is there a way to add one game to the list manually?Thanksxyzzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullPointer Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Hi xyzzyThe big question here is whether you rebuilt your MAME list after making any or all of the changes described above. Any time you make a change affecting the contents of your MAME list in any way, you'll need to rebuild your MAME list from within GameEx for those changes to take effect.There's an Update List option that appears at the bottom of your MAME category list inside of GameEx. Give that a spin if you haven't yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyzzy Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 Yes, I updated the list after the changes with no Joy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 What happens if you turn the verify ROMs option off and update your game list?Can you see anything at all? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hat off to you my man...that now shows my missing game. What other side effect will that have on my system?Thanks,xyzzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Well it means your games aren't verified for that build of mame, so some games may not function as expected if at all.If they work though, you're all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 It could also mean that your version of Mame may not be compatible with the verify roms option in GameEx. What version of Mame are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I might be wrong but I think he was saying it was a specific game and the rest were showing up ok. But it may have been a misunderstanding on my part. If so that seems to suggest a problem with the audit of that particular rom.I was going to suggest adding it to the do not filter list if that didn't work.
