Place the ROMs in the `~/ROMs/astrocde` directory, the files must have the short MAME names such as _astrobat.zip_ and _conan.zip_. If using MAME standalone then no further setup is required and the games should just launch.
The exception to this is the Flatpak release of MAME on Linux which is currently a bit broken and does not set the hashpath setting to point to the correct hash directory. To work around this issue you need to create a file named `~/.mame/mame.ini` with the following contents:
```
hashpath /app/share/mame/hash
```
Hopefully this issue will be resolved in a future update to the MAME Flatpak so that no workaround will be required.
If instead using the _MAME - Current_ RetroArch core, then a hash file must be added inside the RetroArch system directory at this location:

In addition to the game files you need the `ti99_4a.zip` archive which contains the TI-99 system ROMs. This file has to be placed in the root of the `~/ROMs/ti99` directory.
If using the Flatpak release of MAME on Linux you also need to implement a workaround as this release is currently a bit broken and does not set the hashpath setting to point to the correct hash directory. You will need to create a file named `~/.mame/mame.ini` with the following contents:
```
hashpath /app/share/mame/hash

Hopefully this issue will be resolved in a future update to the MAME Flatpak so that no workaround will be required.
Note that you may also need to reconfigure your exit key in MAME as the default _escape_ key is masked as it's used by the emulated TI-99 computer.
Scraping can also be a bit challenging as MAME short names are used and neither ScreenScraper nor TheGamesDB can parse these names. So it's recommended to run the scraper in interactive mode and refine the searches for all games that are not properly identified.
