I tried Mess .77b and it seems to work pretty good so far.  I am using the DOS command line version.

My only issue is I cannot figure out how to remap the keyboard to be MAME keys?

Anyone know?

Thanks,

David

Thanks for the tip )p(, now I'm up todate with MESS.

I figured out how to configure the keyboard - hit TAB for the menu.

I did run into a new problem with my front end - MameWah.

Mess is expecting the following:

Mess.exe coleco -skip_disclaimer -skip_gameinfo -cart c:\colecovsion\rom\donkeyk.rom

So in Mamewah I set it up as follows

Execueable: Mess.exe
Options: -skip_disclaimer -skip_gameinfo -cart
Rom dir: c:\colecovsion\rom

I get:

MESS.EXE c:\colecovsion\rom\donkeyk.rom coleco -skip_disclaimer -skip_gameinfo -cart

How can I make the options come before the rom path?

Also how can I stop it from using all caps?

Thanks,

David

Sorry, I am ressurecting this old thread because it seems to have most of the answers I pieced together from the MESS help pages.

For the life of me, I cannot get a Colecovision emulator running on my cabinet.  I want to use MESS because I can rotate it but no matter what I do in the games I cannot get the input menus to come up like in MAME.

I press 'TAB' and toggle Scroll Lock on and off and try tab with each setting.  No menu comes up like in the help screens and for these users.  I deleted default.cfg and all my games .cfg files and nothing.

What am I missing???

Hi,

Could someone please post their MESS Mamewah cfg file?
For the life of me I can't can't seem to get Mess to run from Mamewah.

Thanks.
