As a result, it emulates a lot of gaming systems, but often times, the performance is better when you use other specialized cores, like FBNeo or dedicated Naomi or Atomiswave emulators.Ī romset is a set of all the different game roms emulated by a MAME version.Ī romset contains parent game roms wich are roms corresponding to the 'main' version of a game and clone game roms which are 'alternative' versions of a parent rom. As you can guess, in most cases we will discard all clone roms and only used the main (or parent) ones.
Most of the code used to make those game roms playable is included in the MAME emulator. Sadly this means that there is a strong and close relationship between a MAME version and the game roms versions : When MAME releases a new version, game roms may need to be updated to fit to the new emulator version. To keep it simple: if you use a certain MAME emulator, say version 0.78, you also have to get your hands on and use the 0.78 version of the romset.
