In Reply to: Multiple Rom Paths In ArcadeOS? posted by Brad on 16, 2001 at 11:44 PM:
: I figure it's possible to do this, but I have 2 questions - First of all, can a single emulator in Arcade OS look for ROMs in 2 directories across 2 drives? Second, can it look for roms in a different directory when you switch emulators?
: If the answer to any of these questions is yes, I'm sure it's easy and I'll look stupid, but I'd love to know how!
: Thanks,

I know the answer to this one!!! I needed to have different rom paths on my machine because as you might already know, if you use dos and arcadeos your C: drive can only be 2 gigs and a full set of roms is more than that. Blah Blah, you actually make a change to your mame.cfg file, my rom line looked something like
roms = .;roms
I changed it to say
roms = .;roms;d:\roms
ArcadeOS finds them all!!
