MAMEWAH 0.96:
Every time I try to switch emulators in MAMEWAH, it crashes on me with the following error:
Run-time error '384':
A form can't be moved or sized
while minimized or maximized.
I'm using custom layout files with backgrounds set. If I try to use the layout files that came with MAMEWAH, no problem.
I have just manged to narrow it down to something in the layout file that Mamewah doesn't like.. (even the older version). The wierd thing though, if I tell MAMEWAH to use a specific default (current) emulator, it loads it fine!
If I use MAMEWAH to switch to another, it crashes.. if I manually switch it in the MAMEWAH.CFG file, it loads it fine.
further more, the layout editor created this file.
Could you email me the layouts you are using? I just tried a few of Cave's multi emulator layouts and they seemed to work OK for me...
I sure will next time I'm at the machine. Maybe you can re-create the problem.
- Take your 368x240 layout
- Create a 368x240 JPG background
- Drop it into the same directory as layout.lay
- Select the background to be this file
- Save layout as layout.lay, emu1.lay, emu2.lay, emu3.lay
- Copy your EMU1.CFG to EMU2.CFG and EMU3.CFG
- Start MAMEWAH, and try to switch layouts.
If it doesn't crash, tell the layout editor to only display Artwork image, Game List, and Year + Manufacturer. (very easy to modify your 368x240 layout to above settings).
