Just testing all of my themes right now. I use the show only games with themes for my filter and for some reason the dkongx (Donkey Kong II) doesn't appear on my wheel.
Edit:
Same issue with Empire Strikes Back (esb)

Same issue with Ghost Busters (ghostb)
Are you sure you are showing clones, check your ini file.

I have it set to only show games with themes and I have the 'parents only' and 'themes only' boxes unchecked.
This is what is in the file:
[themes]
use_parent_vids=false
use_parent_themes=false
animate_out_default = false
reload_backgrounds = false
The other themes work great... Not sure what the problem is here.

Same issue with Ghost Busters (ghostb)Do you have Donkey Kong II in your MAME database? Odds are you are using an older database file or a filtered database that has them removed.

I checked, and no it is not there... Why would I have an older database though if I'm running the latest version of Mame?
I'm not sure how I'd be filtering this out because my other themes play perfectly, it's just a few that don't launch.

Databases are supplied by the Hyperspin community, not by MAME. For an updated database, head over to Hyperlist (link at the top of this site).

Thanks,
I just updated the DB (which I can't believe I know how to do now) and it all works. Thanks again.
