Just loaded the brand new Daphne up and put my 997 Daphne files in there, and it works fine. For each game you have to hit the configure button, configure Laserdisc, say No for player option, and point to your framefile. I unplugged my network cable, and it started up with no problems. Running Windows 7. So, I can only come to one logical conclusion: ;D |

Sure I have a wireless network card installed in it for windows updates and what not, but I don't have any issues with my Daphne either =/ Then again, I actually own Dragon's Lair 1 and 2 and Space Ace, and it reads the files from those disc images. So I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. All I know is when booting it up, it told me I had an older version. I updated it, and since then, haven't had any other issues. Not really sure what happened with yours. |

I use the newest Daphne on my cab (XP) it works fine. Heres what I did. I downloaded daphne and did the big download (10Gish) of all the roms/framefiles exept the DL, DL2 files etc. Test every game then go into the Daphne menu and turn off the up dates. Then as another poster said you need to get the games to load from VDLP and make Daphne look at the correct framefile for each game. Its been awhile since I did this but I remember it took a bit of figuring out! |

I know that is how you launch version 1.0, but in version 99.7, there isn't a "daphneloader" in the package. I figured you would only need the daphne executable with the older version. BUT, I don't know. --- End quote --- Just run everything from the command line. You do not need a loader, and you can use just about any menu facility like Lemon to get you a basic menu front end. I just been playing with Puppy Arcade 10. I am sure you can get that distribution to play Daphne via that link for the linux files. Puppy has its own front end and it is damn fast. Puppy has a crap load of emu swith it and it is cab friendly. http://scottjarvis.com/page105.htm |

One other thing that might stop it from working properly; take a look at the framefile itself. It's just a text file, so open it up. There should be two lines. The first line tells Daphne where the video is. ".\" would put the file in the same directory, or if there is a subdir, make sure it matches where your files are; for example ".\DL" means the video file is located in a DL subdir. |
