help setting up game launcher??
Bill_S:
OK, here's the first few lines of my mame.map file. It is located in c:\glaunch\config:
Name: Description:
puckman "PuckMan (Japan set 1)"
puckmana "PuckMan (Japan set 2)"
pacman "Pac-Man (Midway)"
puckmod "PuckMan (harder?)"
pacmod "Pac-Man (Midway, harder)"
hangly "Hangly-Man (set 1)"
hangly2 "Hangly-Man (set 2)"
newpuckx "New Puck-X"

Took that top line out. Didn't help.
It's like glaunch isn't even looking at my mame.map file.
Bill_S:
OK, I figured out what's causing the problem, but I need help fixing it.
Game Launcher appears to be case sensitive.
I noticed all the games listed in mame.rom were completely upper case and in mame.map they were lower case. I switched some in mame.map to upper case and BAM, they work.
My issue now is, how do I convert all the games in the list so they match in mame.rom and mame.map???
Update: I was able to convert all the upper case characters in mame.rom to lower case using MSWord. It works great now!! Thanks for all the help in getting this running.
