Super World Stadium games missing (sws**)

Post by Gapporin »

There appears to be some Super World Stadium games missing from the database. Whenever I try to upload recordings of them, it says it that it is not a valid MAME shortname. The affected games are sws94, sws95, sws96, sws97, and sws99. There may be others, but these are the only ones that I checked.

sws Super World Stadium (Japan)
sws92 Super World Stadium '92 (Japan)
sws92g Super World Stadium '92 Gekitouban (Japan)
sws93 Super World Stadium '93 (Japan)
sws95 Super World Stadium '95 (Japan)
sws96 Super World Stadium '96 (Japan)
sws97 Super World Stadium '97 (Japan)
sws99 Super World Stadium '99 (SS91/VER.A3)

I think sws94 is gone from the latest mame120, and that is what marps gamenames are based on. If you are recording on an old mame you may have to find the clone that sws94 moved to, someone posted a link to a site that will do that, but for now i don't recall.

Though i think the problem here is that the games were "*" stared because they were not working. But that was in the past, perhaps they are working well enough to upload now. Try uploading with the gamename with a preceding star, such as *sws99.

Only 3 games were archived...

*sws95 -> sws95 "Super World Stadium '95 (Japan)"
*sws96 -> sws96 "Super World Stadium '96 (Japan)"
*sws97 -> sws97 "Super World Stadium '97 (Japan)"

As skito pointed out, sws94 does not exist
