I've had a lot of trouble getting roms to run in the past due to not realising the importance of using the correct MAME version for the romset. My distro (Void) only has 'mame-0229_1' available.

The fact that the software is usable serves primarily to validate the accuracy of the documentation (how else can you prove that you have recreated the hardware faithfully?).
Unfortunately nobody is really making proper backup images of these things (as they're still kinda big, even if they're only loaded with older stuff, and once you've used them, they contain personal data)The problem with this Chinese stuff is the manufacturer usually isn't obvious it comes in generic packaging with no obvious details. I realise I may be wrong about that.My standards are probably quite low compared to someIf you don't mind games crashing after a few levels, having significant gameplay logic flaws, or severe graphical and sound issues (or in many cases where it's no longer the case, missing sound entirely) then stick with 2003If those things matter to you, use current.Most of those 2003 ROMs won't work with current, as you've found, because they're full of bad dumps, incomplete dumps, incorrectly identified sets etc.If you can't afford 200GB, pick and choose the sets you want (and besides, just the arcade ROMs for current are NOT 200GB, they're closer to 60, aside from the CHDs, and with those you're going to want to pick and choose anyway)By using a 18 year old version of MAME, assuming your hardware is capable of running newer, you're throwing 18 years of very hard work away, it's not a tradeoff you want to be making if you can avoid it.Ideally people would just stop distributing those 2003 ROMs, and especially stop using terms like 'reference set' because it gives completely the wrong impression.This is also what I mean when I say RA is giving people a false sense that something that really isn't a valid option at this point is a valid option, it's dragging people back and feeding into a loop whereby more people end up using those bad versions, and as such we end up with cases like this because the bad ROMs are also still being pushed.It was a generic looking Chinese box a friend picked up off AliExpress (or a similar site, but I think it was AE) but thanks to the current pandemic, I haven't seen them in almost 2 years anyway.They've since put better software on it. In the past I tried just downloading the roms I wanted to play but most of them didn't work ("missing files") and I've since learned that some roms depend on other roms and BIOSes etc so thought getting a complete set would bypass those problems for me.I am using a modern distrib (Void describes itslef as 'Stable rolling release'), I suppose I presumed a more modern binary would work with old ROMS (but not vice-versa) and that more more recent romsets would just include more modern games which I'm less interested in. I just want to re-live a few games for nostalgia, I'm not dedicating a machine to MAME or anything. Also they all seem to be for WIndows, not Linux,I just downloaded the first set I could find that was a manageable size for me (50GB vs over 200GB, I can't spare that much drive space) and that was all in one download (I found several links to more updated sets but they listed every rom individually).The few roms I tried in Retroarch from this set seemed to work fine, my standards are probably quite low compared to some. I'd hoped maybe Retroarch had downloaded a MAME binary which I could launch directly but that doesn't seem to be the case, I guess a core is something more specific to Retroarch, like a plugin not a standalone.If I search for 'mame 2003 plus linux download' I just get stuff related to Retroarch and Libretro.What looks like the official site lists about 100 releases but none of them are called 2003 Plus (I guess that's just the name of the romset?).
I can't get the whole hype to these ARM SoCs in emulation world. For what?: using less system resources due to underpowered hardware? I had a CuBox i4 Pro years ago (audio server streaming via LAN) and once I decided to run Lakka or Batocera in it. But let me point out that using wine is great to reach out compatibility of windows programs in Linux better than Windows itself! Also what would be whole point of RetroArch devs to re-compile old MAME versions for modern OS (I already know, it's just a rhetorical question, btw) ? For me the ARM SoC boards are worthless for gaming/emulation if you must use old programs. I entirely embrace your thoughts, pal. The Chinese market is full of cases where you see them jumping through hoops in the worst possible ways if it means they could cut costs in some way / not have to put the effort into updating a product.Yup you're right.
