big g Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I have AE on 4 player arcade cabinet , using Mame 2.10. All my, roms work with this version of Mame. I have AE setup to display all games and 4 player games. The problem is, when I update list AE, it doesn’t list all the 4 games , that should go in that list. If, I select the all games tab, those missing games are listed there and work fine. My question is, how do I, update game list, or data base, to display missing games or add the missing games, to 4 player list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 May need a newer version of nplayers.ini. Put in the GameEx data folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tthurman Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Did you get the most recent 0.207 version? It's always a good idea to match this with your MAME release and the version in the repository is an older release. These type files aren't maintained here to represent the current release as they originate elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big g Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 Hi, yes, installed the most recent 0.207 version of nplayers.ini . I also installed .207 version of Mame also, with same result . It had an incomplete 4 player game list. It also had incomplete list for light gun games. I also tried gameex and gameex EVO with the same rom set and version of Mame and .207 nplayers.ini. They both had same incomplete list of games, as in AE. If you select all games tab and select a game , those games are listed and play fine. I just can’t get any version of gameex to list an complete list for those category’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 You need to attach copies (no copy and paste please) of your gameex.ini and log.txt files for review. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big g Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 I have tried different version of Mame from .201 to .210 command line version. I have tried nplayers.ini from .201 to .207. the 4 player and light games list are incomplete on AE, EVO and gameex. When, all games tab is selected, all the missing games are there and work fine. Here are the log txt and show log files, for AE. The next 2 files are for gameex. log.txt ShowLog.exe log.txt ShowLog.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Speirs Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Sorry for delay, on this now. Could you please give some sample games to check? As mentioned GameEx just gets this info fron nplayers.ini. Also that the other filters may hide some games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Speirs Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 most of those show up for me if I disable the verify. For the others unfortunately MAME has the wrong data. That will need to be fixed in MAME itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 What if the ROM names are added to the Do Not Filter list and list is rerun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big g Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hi Draco I tried that, gameex never included those, roms in proper category. After refreshing list, but what ever Tom tweaked, in lastest build. The majority of the roms showed up on proper list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
