Exiting problem for PC mouse controlled games

(1/2) > >>

tchiacch:
I have several PC games and most of them exit fine and return back to the Maximus Menu when I hit my ESC button.
I have two games that do not exit since they look like they need you to select quit using the mouse/trackball from within the game.  I can use my mouse to select quit and then hit ESC and it goes back to the Maximus Menu.  But if I just simply hit the ESC button from within the game, it does not exit from the game.  Anyone know how to fix this so that the ESC will force the quit of a game no matter what?

Thanks.

tchiacch:
Thanks so much.  You rock!!  It's a perfect solution.

Hello,

I have an intermittent exitinig problem with any games.   after exiting a game I get a black screen.   To get out of this you have to use the mouse, right click it and exit the emulator (Mame).   Then, there is still a problem because the focus is lost and the Max. Arcade doesn't respond and you have to restart the pc to fix it.

Any suggestions?

Also, could you post or upload the batch file solution so I could try it please?

Thanks.

Steve

Worked like a champ.  Kind of a roundabout fix, but it worked.

I can't get cabvol to quit on exiting MA would a command line with a taskkill do the trick?
what would that code look like?

kaptainsteve:
@echo off
taskkill /IM mameuihiscore32.exe /F
dir F:\Downloads\gaming\MameUIHI32_v0.141

This is what i'm trying right now.
Just replace the mameuihiscore332.exe w/whatever mame you're using
and the
dir/directory with the directory location of your mame.
save on notepad and add .bat to the suffix.
