seabass41 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) I use GameEx for my MAME frontend. Generally it is great. However, my MAME Gauntlet only plays in Spanish. (ver 15). I have obtained a new version and put into the MAME ROM folder. I click 'Update List' in MAME folder in GameEX, but after the lengthy update, the only version of Gauntlet displayed is still the (ver 15) Spanish game. Any ideas? (I know it's probably something very simple!) Edited March 24, 2019 by tthurman Re-phrased wording ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tthurman Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 In the "Advance MAME Setup" within the setup wizard there is an area in the filtering options, "don't filter these ROMS", try putting that title in the field and update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simbamame Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Might be a silly answer but have you check your downloading the English version as a lot of ROMs / CHDs are very similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Speirs Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Please post your log file and GameEx.ini. Try setting the clones setting to "if different name" turn off the game name filter and re update the list. This is the newer way to get a clean MAME games list in GameEx.

Draco1962 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Hi Tom - any reason why No Clones setting is removed from GameEx Arcade Setup Wizard>Advanced MAME Settings? Seems that this is needed for clean MAME game lists there as well. It still shows in the gameex.ini for AE but not sure if it is disabled if editing the gameex.ini directly Below are the settings that show in the gameex.ini for GameEx with the Setup Wizard description in parenthesis: NoClones=1 (No Clones unless better) NoClones=2 (No Clones unless different name) NoClones=True (I don't want Clones) NoClones=False (I want Clones) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Because its a default and hard coded in AE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Does manually changing tbe setting within the .ini impact the results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 No, like I said its hard coded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
