When launching: embedded/mame-data.tgz: No such file or directory

[jasperblues]

I'm new to mame. Where should this file come from?

[ksherlock]

The embedded/mame64 and embedded/mame-data.tgz are from this fork/branch of mame - https://github.com/ksherlock/mame/tree/ample-261-u2 . make -f make-ample mame-data.tgz will create it (or make -f make-ample release for both).
