Ok, I don't really understnd what i am doing. I have MAME v. 113 and going to v 114. I am getting the files off of CENSORED. They are zip files. Could anyone guide me through on what to do. Where do I unzip the files to? Once they are unziped what do i do with ClrMame? Thanks

Read the documentation and follow tutorials.
The quick way:
- profiler (->create): setup mame as your data source
- settings: setup rompaths
- scanner: hit scan, let cmpro fix (when options are enabled) all issues.

After that you should only have missing files (or not-fixable issues). Add new files by using fix-missing or the rebuilder (or even rebuilder functionality via drag'n drop in the scanresults tree window).

You don't have to unzip anything. Either you use fix missing, then it picks up roms from a setup add-path or you drag'n drop them or use a rebuilder source.

Again...read the docs/tutorial

When I go to the rebuilder and try to select my source file (which I downloaded from Tiptonware.com and saved to the desktop) is not there. What should I do. Just to clearoify, I have already ran clrmame pro scan. I am just trying to install the updates issued by tiptonware.
Thanks for the relpy

The end is also showing:
48 source files
234 analyzed files
234 skiped files.

The rebuilder rebuilds only valid file, i.e. they match (hashvalue check) with the one in the loaded database. If a file isn't rebuilt, it didn't match.
