Full Mame Romset

[Codger]

There's a website I remember where volunteers would send you the full MAME romset on disc if you sent them the appropriate discs. Anyone know the URL?

[Meh]

Probably dead. It's like 15gb for a full set now.

[nomore29]

It's not dead. Check here.

The 15GB is mostly DDR music and video roms.

The core EMU sets around 5Gb (proberly less with duplicate removed) - and thats around 3000 games as is.

Search google for "ROckwaldo Tombstones"

[nausea]

or google Romburner.

Or if you have broadband, leech the torrent.

it was called tombstones or something like that.

[Codger]

Thanks all. Found the website. I'd rather get it off someone here though if anyone is willing

And I would have got it off Suprnova, but just as the torrents came out and starting becoming popular I had to get rid of broadband

And some bastard nicked by nicely compiled Neo Geo ROMset so I don't even have that now.

The TOmbstones guy is reliable and friendly, I've used him a few times.

I've got the complete 88u2 romset, not including CHD's, and it comes in at a whopping 10.5 gigs ....i've got 5198 Roms out of a toatl 5260 (62 CHD's) available as of this current Mame..

If i were to try and get the CHD games that would add another 18gigs .....

at the minute i dont see the point because most of those games only run at between 3-10fps on current pcs, and the ones that do run full speed, such as the Beatmania music and rythm games are unplayable on a pc as they used special control devices like drums and mixing decks....

There are a few which are playable at full speed with a mouse such as Area 51,Carneval and the Killer Instinct fighters which i would like though......
