not ALL of the above. i mentioned zn-1, zn-1, and namco system 11 emulator, zinc, too. :) mame technically emulates them, they just arent "activated" in the current binary versions, it's all in the current source though ;)
I meant "all of the above", as in those that I mentioned in my post.

ClrMamePro can do all sorts of things. I've used it for merging and unmerging larger rom sets, and I know it can update roms when necessary (as MAME is updated). Don't know if it can fix bad sets, but there are a number things I haven't explored yet in the interface.

MAME itself can also tell you whats bad/missing, but it can't fix anything. Not sure what the switch is for the command-line version, but in MAME32 it's "File\Audit all games."

there are to many good games available on mame to single them out. so just download games based on your favorite manufacturer (you can sort your game list by manufacturer if that helps).

once you find a good source to download your mame roms (find a site that has a complete mame0.61 romset) then choose a manufacturer and get as many roms as you can.

try downloading every game developed by Irem:
-GunForce II
-In the Hunt
-Ninja Spirit
-Kung-Fu Master (the arcade version of the classic game "kung-fu" on nes)
-Vigilante (the sequel to kung-fu that no one's ever heard of)
-Dragon Breed
-R-Type
(just an example)

for those of you who dont know, Irem is a group of developers that later formed Nazca (wich is were Metal Slug came from)

What's that...?
it seems that all of the roms i download are bad sets, is there a reason there are so many bad dumps out there?

make sure that your roms are named correctly, and never rename them!
if you download...say mortal kombat II (rev 3.1) the rom must be named mk2.zip in order for mame to read it.
all mame rom files you D/L should be named properly and if they're not then dont D/L them!
bad dumps are very un-common if you always use a good source for your files.
