Problem starting MAME games
(1/2) > >>
200X:
I just compiled a new MAMEUI32.EXE (136u4). Everything seemed to go well. I also have the correct roms.

I can start the program fine. It finds all the roms. But whenever I try to start a game, the program just closes. I even tried copying all the same settings from the old version. It's still not working. I don't get it.

Am I missing something. I have the MAME folder. I generated gamelist.xml. I copied the roms to the roms directory. I have the snaps etc in the right directories...not that they even probably matter. Is there something else I should do or add?
200X:
Actually, I noticed that when I right-click a game and choose play (whatever game), then it works. But if I double-click the file, then it doesn't work. And if I try starting a game through Maximus, it won't work........confusing  :dizzy:

The games won't start at all with Mamepgui  :cry:

Could the compiling have gone completely wrong?  :-\ It didn't give me any errors though  :(
Harakiri:
My compiled version of MAMEUI crashes randomly when loading games. Usually this happens when i load the biggest roms (ie.: KOF, MVC, etc.). I'm no programmer so i can't tell if it's compiler or emulator problem.

Follow my link instructions and that problem will be no more! :)
