not the M+GUI
Why cant it remember a custom rom path!? Every recent version i have tried forgets the path when you restart it.
Also i remember it used a different neogeo BIOS then regular mame. Not going to ask for it here but can anyone give me any tips on what to search for?

EDIT: Found the BIOS.
EDIT2: Adding..
rompath roms;G:\Games ROM\ARCADE\MAME 0.153 ROMS
..works. Weird that that's the only way to make it work... in a GUI version of mame.
