I've just compiled the complete set and posted to my website. I'm not in any way affiliated with Phoenix Arcade, and have posted simply for the convenience of forum members. Of course, you must be legally licensed to use these roms. By downloading this romset, you agree that you are legally entitled to do so, and that you will delete any titles which you are not entitled to use.

Enjoy.
 
Thank you so much for doing this....I was having trouble with a few of the games and your file saved me. Of course I only loaded the games that I have complete originals.

Thanks again for taking the time to do this.
 
You're welcome... I know I always appreciated the spleck.net resource for the arcadeshop board roms. If people are interested, I'll update the page each time there are updates to the board (assuming that my server doesn't complain about bandwidth... over 50 downloads in just the past 8 hours).

For those who were having trouble with pacnpal... It seems to have a parent-rom relationship with pacnchomp. I just combined the two and then found the elusive papi1.cpu in a mame rollback set. It seems to work.

Please let me know if the sets seem complete, or if anyone is having trouble with any of the sets, I'll try to look into it.
 
I just tried opening the zip file downloaded from that link and it's telling me it's invalid.

Hmmm... all I can suggest is to try the download again. I haven't heard of this problem from anyone else. If you still can't get it to work, let me know... perhaps I could try re-zipping the file.
 
Hmmmm just tried downloading it at work and it worked perfect, I don't know what went wrong at home but apparently there's nothing wrong on your end.

Thanks for post this, I don't have a board yet but it's nice to be ready for it when I get one.

Glad to hear it. What program do you use at home to unzip? These were encoded with WinRAR. Not sure if that made any difference.
 
I use 7zip.

Is there a better place to download it than Sourceforge? The download from there tries to install a bunch of other shit that I don't want, but I'm guess that's the only place to get it.

BTW the version I was trying to use at home was Winzip 9, so understandibly that was the problem, I don't know what I have at work.

Where's the best place I can download the latest rar unzipper without getting totally butt-raped with viruses and crap spamware? I just tried and couldn't find any. :(

Any Zip extractor will work fine... I used WinRAR to zip them, but they ARE in .zip format, not .rar.

I tried to download Winrar but for the free version it wanted me to sign up for trial services like Netflix or something, that's more trouble than it's worth.

Note: I only pulled a google search on WinRAR (which is what I used)... I've not tried to actually install this version as I already have it installed.

Thanks Frizz, just tried it and it tells me half the file is corrupt. Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it at work and dump the files on my thumb drive, I'll see if I can snag a copy of what I'm using there.

Just in case anyone has trouble downloading the romset...

The link may go down for a while. Seems the link got posted to a couple other forums and the number of downloads linked from those forums (according to StatCounter) skyrocketed over the last 3 days.

My domain host is squawking about the bandwidth (I currently have a really-low bandwidth plan), and I may have to upgrade.

So if the site is down for a day, be patient... It'll be back up quickly.

All should be back up for good now. My apologies to those who tried to download and got a dead link. Increased my bandwidth, and the downloads have significantly tapered off over the last two days... So it should be good to go.
