HaHa already eh? I bet you got them off that site where they are in ACE format with trailing C00s for the larger ones. How many GB is your ROM collection so far? I remember reading someguy's post a few weeks ago saying he had the perfect ROM collection at 40GB, but he was a bit "concerned" as he thought it was meant to be 37 [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Of course I have no idea if he means EVERY conceivable dump ever, eg 8328 TOTAL NES ROMs = 1.7 GB. And where on earth would he get all this crap from anyway?

If you are not going Genesis games already, maybe you should try for another smallish format such as GameBoy or Sega Master System I know that the SMS has a much smaller ROM base than the NES.

Oh yes, any change of changing your MAME attributes to read/write etc like the rest? Just noticed in the last few days that it is different to the other directories and does not let the user enter. Maybe that is just on the directory you gave me hmm.

The problem with my mame roms is that they are on another computer (the one I'm on now) so when I'm not on them the shared folder isn't accessable. If I had a bigger hard drive I'd put them with the rest of the stuff that's on the ftp server.





I don't like to leave this computer on because it's loud and it's an AMD athlon which tends to get hot but mostly I'm concerned with noise. Oh and since this is my main computer I can't afford fot it to go down or break [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img]

Don't worry, I'm getting my MAME ROMs slowly from Sabin's ftp. Have been for close to a month now. Now I can't decide what to download GBA or MAME though! arrghh.

Yeah, I've been getting MAME from Sabin, too. As you know. I download MAME in the morning and GBA at night.

Yes, exciting isn't it?

I do have set .55 but I have no idea which ones they are. I wish mame had a couple of features for sorting such as by genre or by mame's releases. Basically if I could get a hold of mame.dk's database (minus the roms) that would be sweet.

If I had them, I'd upload them. You've helped me quite a bit already.

It doesn't matter that you still have the .53 set. It's still sooo much easier to download from you than clicking through the links at Mame.dk. I just have to update it when I'm finised.

Just have to say thanks, Ivwshane! I got all the GBA finally! It's really cool of you and Sabin to have your ftp's up.

I'm not done with Sabin yet, though [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

If you want to track the latest GBA releases, I finally remembered the name of the site: http://advanced.subport.org/

Looks like we're still up to date, I checked.
