Can't get NeoGeo games to run.

[Spreadgun]

I can't seem to get The Last Blade and Last Blade 2 to launch. The log file says that some files are missing, but all of missing files are in the rom zip.

[libretro ERROR] Fatal error: Required files are missing, the machine cannot be run.
[ERROR] [Content]: Failed to load content

Edit: forgot to mention that both games run on the standalone version of retroarch.

[Spreadgun]

The missing files are the files in the rom. Dang this thing is putting up a fight.

[Fried Brains]

make a new folder if it's not there

[Spreadgun]

Nope. Nada. Made the mame folder in the system folder and put the bios in there. I think I'm gonna give up on this one.

[Spreadgun]

I scanned the games folder and it finds them, but then it says that it's missing them. Here's the log file:

Seems lastblad.zip is what you need to get in the right spot.

[Spreadgun]

Well, push came to shove. So I copied all the files from the standalone version and pasted/overwrote the files of the steam version and it worked. lol

You ain't gonna beat me, ♥♥♥♥♥!

Hey, man. Thanks for the help trying to figure it out.

[Fried Brains]

happy new year, cheers

[Spreadgun]

Same to you.

When you say "in each zip" you mean in every rom?
I'm asking cuz I have MAME (current) working flawlessly and the bios are not inside every single rom.

[Fried Brains]

Bios files for mame go in go in \\system\mame\roms\ folder, not in each rom, finally figured this out!

It's always been that way. It would be a chaos putting the tons of bios inside the other tons of roms Not t mention I've got the fullset roms imagine the hell that'd mean

[Spreadgun]

As far as I know, the neogeo bios goes in the folder where you have your neo geo games and all other bios for other systems goes in the system folder.

[Spreadgun]

I just don't get how retroarch was telling me I had missing rom files when I didn't.

Anyway, like I said, I copy/pasted/overwrote every single file, including the retroarch.exe from the standalone version onto the steam version and it worked.
