Does anyone remember FireFox?
« on: June 09, 2010, 10:49:53 am »
Awesome movie with Clint Eastwood, but also a very good game

It was a laserdisc game with real video cut scenes and an Afterburner-like game on top of a real video background.
It doesnt seem to be supported under Daphne but id love to play it again

Any info?

It's playable in Mame, and I like playing it with my Ram Controls yoke...

Firefox has way too many memory bugs.  I could never keep it running for more then 3 or 4 hours without having to reboot it.

I like the simplicity of chrome...  Need IE for work (can't hit some corp websites)... and need FireFox for JS debugging...  And have Safari and Opera installed because I'm a glutton for punishment

I have the mame ZIP and the CHD file but its not working
Where do I put the CHD file? IN the roms directory with the zip?

I run mame (via Atomic) from c:\mame and my roms are in c:\roms
I have the firefox.zip in c:\roms\ 
I have the firefox.chd in  c:\roms\firefox

no worky?

You probably need the update...

** Edit **

Scratch that - I believe you have the 133 CHD....

Try running Mame directly and type Firefox, then hit Enter to see what error comes up.

Check your mame.ini file - Mame should display it as soon as you drop the Rom in there. The .ini file will be in the same directory as mame.exe. Look for this entry:

#
# CORE SEARCH PATH OPTIONS
#
rompath                   C:\Mame

If you don't have a mame.ini file, generate one by running mame with the -cc switch.

(Start, Run, C:\mame.exe -cc)

In both the rompath and the run command change the path to wherever you have the Mame executable.

bluurgh just like certain other roms, I had to make a new 'screen' in Atomic pointing to a different mame.exe (actually cabmame) then it worked.

Its actually not a brilliant port but its still fun   :)

If you drop a new Rom in the folder and it doesn't show up in Atomic, make sure to right click on the screen and select Purge. It will regenerate the list and you should be good to go.
