A 'full set' of MAME 0.171 ROMs will include the system roms / bios roms for the consoles. Since the projects merged the 'MESS Bios' set is obsolete (and was a misleading name anyway, it included ROMs for a number of standalone game systems just as the MAME set did eg.

Hi everyone. Hope someone can help. I'm looking to update to MAME to .171 (I'm going to use MameUI to be clear) and as I understand it Mess has been rolled into Mame recently. I'm currently using v.151 of Mess to run a handful of systems (Atari 5200, 7800, Coleco, and Intellivision) because the latest version of the Mess BIOS I could find was v.151. My questions are:
- Does v.171 of Mame (or MAMEUI) require BIOS to run console systems?
- If BIOS is required for the latest version of Mame, can I use 'lower' version BIOS set (v.151 Mess BIOS pack on v.171 of Mame)?
Thanks!

Welcome to emuparadise.org's BIOS section. Over here, we have a great selection of BIOS files for people who are trying to emulate and need a BIOS to get through. The BIOS's come in handy when you need to use one with an emulator, so you can look to this section for all your BIOS needs!! (Note: They also come in VERY handy for development purposes!)
