wrong rom folder in the readme

Opened this issue · 3 comments

There is a mistake in the readme, the rams should be in the games/mame directory :
/games/mame/.zip
/games/hbmame/.zip

several options are possible

Hello, I just installed a fresh mister setup using mr-fusion and the updater. I put the roms (Galaxian.zip and phoenix.zip) in the _Arcade/mame folder but when launching the games, I had the error message about the rom not found and the path was games/mame/xxx
Then I put the roms in games/mame and the games ran ok.
I also installed the script get-mame-roms and launched it. It downloaded the roms in _Arcade/mame but every arcade core I tried didn't launch. Every thing was fine once I move both mame and hbmame folders from _Arcade to games. So I guess there was some changes between before and now.

There were indeed a error in readme. Folder should be named _Arcades (not _Arcade).
Also games/mame folder has priority. So if it found then it will be used instead. So if you want to use _Arcades folder, then you need to remove games/mame (and other arcade related entries there).
