Tecmo Driver Problems with Mame Roms

Unread post by Chris23235 »

I am having a hard time getting the Tecmo core working. It works with Rygar, but both Silkworm and Gemini Wing give me an error. Gemini Wings complains about not finding gw01-6a.rom and Silkworm doesn't find silkworm.1. Both files are in my zips. I use the merged set 0.220.
Has anybody an idea, what I am doing wrong?

Are you sure you are using the latest core and your mra files are the right version for your core? If you are in doubt test the latest versions.

Pretty sure, triple checked everything and redownloaded it today. Core version 20201606, MRA files from the release folder and Zip files from the merged set.

Are you having only one Tecmo core? Maybe there is also a older version somewhere? And only one MAME folder?

Only one core, only one Mame folder, I am out of ideas. Every other core works fine.

Just checked all three and they are running fine. I always use non-merged sets, but that shouldn’t be the problem. There is one more thing that comes to mind. In the MiSTer scripts section there is a core manager. Try installing the Tecmo core with the core manager. It will also download the mra files.

I give it up, I set the Arcade folder up completely new and still get the same error.

Sorry I couldn’t help you. Maybe your roms are somehow corrupted. You could try this script here, it will download the right roms for you. https://github.com/RetroDriven/MiSTerMAME

I originally used the retrodriven script and thought maybe the roms were wrong in it, this was the reason I tried the roms from the merged set. Many thanks for your help, as all other cores work fine, I don't have any ideas what is wrong.
I even tried it with another SD-RAM module. Maybe setting up the SD-Card would help, but right now I don't want to do it, when I have only problems with a single core.

EDIT: Found the problem, I was blind, I used the update_all script recently and didn't saw that it set up a new Mame folder in the Games subdirectory without asking me. My fault, sorry for the time.
