As of now, adding roms of console games is no problem, but scraping MAME games is a very different story. I don't know much about scripting, but a MAME DAT file like the one downloadable from http://www.logiqx.com/Dats/MAMEBeta/ might be enough to let AL look up the filename of the *.zip it is trying to get info for, and match it against an entry in the dat file, and from there get the full game name it should search with?Yes I know this problem with MAME roms. It will be on my plan list. The difficulty is to have an updated MAME DAT file which is of the same version than your MAME software. I will think about it. But, honestly, actually. I have so many things to do on the advanced launcher prior to work on this specificity of the MAME roms.
