MAME2003 SETUP:
Here's what you do (I put all the files needed in one spot for convenience in installing mame):
- Install the retroarch module first (retroarch.hmod) https://github.com/kaz321123/Mame-Support-Files
Download and put this folder (retroarch.hmod) into user_mods, and install the module from the Hakchi2 menu>Modules>Install Extra Modules.
- Install Mame2003 Module (mame2003.hmod) https://github.com/kaz321123/Mame-Support-Files/blob/master/mame2003.hmod
Download and put this file (mame2003.hmod) into user_mods, and install the module from the Hakchi2 menu>Modules>Install Extra Modules.
- Then let's say you want to play pac-man (you know you do)... Download pac.man.zip here: https://github.com/kaz321123/Mame-Support-Files/blob/master/Mame2003 Roms/pacman.zip
Pull the pac-man zip into the hakchi2 program, choose 'import as archive'.
On the command line, put this (or something similar-your directories might be slightly different): /bin/mame2003 /usr/share/games/nes/kachikachi/CLV-Z-OYAEV/pacman.zip (a space needs to be after 'mame2003')
If you need mame samples, you can install 'bios_images.hmod' (In case sounds are missing in some games like Donkey Kong or Galaga.)
Mame 2003 uses Mame romset 0.78.
If you need more mame2003 roms, download the torrent I provided. The torrent contains 44 GB, but you can choose to download only a few if you wish. https://github.com/kaz321123/Mame-S...et_MAME0.78_ROMs_CHDs_Samples_archive.torrent Name is: MAME2003_Reference_Set_MAME0.78_ROMs_CHDs_Samples_archive
