Need help getting ulimate software setup

(1/3) > >>

Jim:
Hi,
I have been playing with numerous emus and software but I can't get things to run 100%. What I want is a nice frontend that has multi support for consoles and arcade games. I want to enter a game and exit with only my arcade controls. I want complete full screen support, and snaps. I have used GL, but it ran into a few snags when i used a few different emulators. I guess what I would like to know is, what is the best setup, what are the best emus to use and config files to set.

thx
Jim

Well hold on let me get my magic wand..... poof! Ok, there you go.  What are you crazy man, there's no such thing as a 100% perfect setup or else we would all use it.  

I will have some utilities out in the near future but to be honest I never expect to have a perfect solution.  There's what about 300+ emulators out there with many of them having hundred and thousands of games.  You ask alot.  

Jim:
Hey,
I am not asking for a miracle, just something that works decent with a few popular emus such as mame, nes, snes, and genesis. Also you always say you will have some software out, any idea when?

Thanks
Jim

Give GLaunch a try.  You can set it up to launch multiple emulators via config files.  Right now I'm using it to launch games from MAME, VirtuaNES, and ZSNES no problem.

Hi,
I have been using it too. But I have been experiencing problems. It works good with mame, but VirtuaNEs will not work. When I run a game, It loads Vnes but gives me and error like unsupported filetype. If I run the game in Vnes by file/open it works fine. if I have glaunch.cfg file set to debug=YES it works. Just when it is turned off it don't work. I have tried what dave said and add start /wait to the virtuanes executable= line of the virtuanes.cfg file but it still doesnt work. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jim
