Old ROMs don't work with beta branch. #228

Closed hayguneys closed 1 year ago

hayguneys commented 1 year ago

I've used the latest workflow artifact version of the 64bit windows version of PCem and it fails to recognise the roms I place on the the roms folder.

I did the same thing with the fork I built myself and the problem persists. image

This is the error message I get after trying to run the executable, any clues as to how I can make it read the proper roms folder?

Thanks in advance.

Now PCem expects the roms, configs, nvr, etc. inside a .pcem folder within your Windows user folder:

"C:\Users\your_user_name\.pcem"

Example: pcem_folder

Also if you don't want it in your home folder just move all your folders for pcem in a .pcem folder with the exe. This puts it in portable mode.
