I recently downloaded my collection of FME ROMs off Usenet. The first machine I tried was "Arabian Nights". I have two files related to Arabian Nights:

Arabian Nights (Barcrest).zip: Arabian_Nights_(Barcrest)_[Dx01_1280_15jp].dat
Arabian_Nights_(Barcrest)_[Dx01_1280_15jp].gam

Arabian_Nights_(Barcrest)_[Dx01_1280_15jp].zip:
Arabian_Nights_(Barcrest)_[Dx01_1280_15jp].hex


I tried to play the game with just the .dat and .gam files, but it said that the ROM files were missing. I threw in the .hex file, and now it loads, but it doesn't seem to want to turn on.

I can press buttons, and they rise and fall as they should, but they don't produce any machine effects. The machine looks dark, as if it needs to be turned on.

I cannot find any documentation anywhere relating to these emulators and the structure of ROM files. The '0' key to insert money doesn't work. Nothing seems to work.

Do I have all of the files necessary? I hate to ask a newbie question like this, but like I said before, documentation seems to evade me.

Thanks.

No..that looks like just the ROM you have..Ive gave this advice before and will do so again.

From this site first off get the DX Layout..then get the ROM make a folder and put both files into it and extract.

Arabian nights is MPU5 so you need MFME 9.4 or higher..which can be found from the links on the left..download cow..or cliffs repro.

Once downloaded extract MFME 9.4 double click.file>browse for arabian nights folder>highlight .gam file>open..enjoy.

I'm guessing because its a thousand times easier than downloading one by one from here. Saves this place bandwidth too.
