 |
|
I upgraded from .148 to .159. For some reason, it can not find my rom path even though I placed it correctly in mame.ini. Also, this issue didn't exist in .148:
| Code: |
# mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/games-emulation/sdlmame/files
# cd /usr/local/portage/games-emulation/sdlmame
# wget -O sdlmame-0.159.ebuild https://496654.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=398756
# cd files
# wget -O sdlmame-0.159-sdl_ttf.patch https://496654.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=398758
# wget -O sdlmame-0.159-QA.patch https://496654.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=398760
# wget -O sdlmame-0.159-debugger-linking.patch https://496654.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=398762
# cp /usr/portage/games-emulation/sdlmame/files/vector.ini .
# cp /usr/portage/games-emulation/sdlmame/files/mame-0.139.ini.in ./mame-0.159.ini.in
# cd ..
# ebuild sdlmame-0.159.ebuild manifest
# emerge sdlmame::local_overlay

Is the /etc/games/sdlmame/mame.ini not being read?

| UPDATE: that is weird.....I have to run sdlmame in the same directory where mame.ini resides for it to use the mame.ini file. If anyone can help please. |

| After checking around, this is the default behavior of mame. For it to automatically check /etc/.... the original code was modified. |
