DEMUL Dreamcast ISO with Howard_Casto exit Script
« on: March 28, 2015, 05:29:11 pm »
I recently came across this thread:
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=140627.0

Howard_Casto's AHK script works well for getting DEMUL to exit for me.
However, I'm running into a roadblock when it comes to Dreamcast games.
It seems DEMUL treats Atomiswave and Naomi roms differently than Dreamcast ISOs, so I'm having trouble.  With Casto's script, I've been able to easily run Atomisave/Naomi roms and use ESC to get out of them quickly, but I can't get the same script to work for Dreamcast ISOs.

Could someone help me out?  If there's a previous thread about this very topic, I'd super appreciate a simple paste of the URL.  I can search well enough, but don't always find the most specific result for what I'm trying to achieve.

I appreciate any help!

A combination of the link listed in the OP, and this one:
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,120273.msg1275200.html#msg1275200

...gave me my solution.  I am using this now:

Run, C:\Emulation\Sega\demul_0582\demul.exe -run=dc -image="C:\Emulation\Sega\demul_0582\Roms\Sega Dreamcast\soul_calibur.cdi"
sleep, 4000
MouseMove, 1920,1080
~esc::
Process, Close, demul.exe
ExitAPP
return

The emulator is set to go fullscreen on its own, so I don't need the alt+enter bit.  I also am just running this script as is, and not compiling it.


This is a great forum and I'm glad I've found it and have been able to get good info from it so far.
