[Techoverload]

Ok so this thing is giving me fits.... I dont seem to be able to get it to do anything!!! I am usually good at figuring this type of thing out but I cant seem to get it to do anything other then give me errors........

I have like 80 gigs worth of emus and roms and I need a good front end to use to launch them.........

I am buying dinner and drinks for any takers....plus I have ammassed quite a collection of sticks buttons and track balls....plus other assorted stuff

You can call me at 727-515-9595 anytime

Thanks,
Jeremy

If I knew anything about MameWah my friend  ... I would be there in a heartbeat.

My brain is still fried from learning AdvMAME and AdvMenu , not to mention DOS all in a weekend project.

Sorry

Keep trying....check out this tutorial.

It really is not all that hard.

Yea it isn't bad at all... if you take the time to learn it it will pay off in the end also as you don't want to be stuck with a problem that you can't fix later on...    A really sweet interface, if I only lived in the Tampa area I would take you up on the beer and dinner.   Free food!

As others have said, it really is not as hard to setup as it first seems.  All frontends require a little bit of reading and searching through some files to find out how to work them.  Be patient and stick with it and I'm sure you'll figure it out.  

If you need help feel free to post your questions over in the Software forum there are plenty of guys in there willing to help - including Mamewah's creator Minwah!

I'd be very suprised if you can't at least get it to run after reading my small tutorial that Talking_Octopus has linked to above.

my problem is I just dont have tons of time...... I work 6-7 days a week 10-16 hrs a day...... I am an independent cab driver which basically means I own my own bussiness so the more I work the more I make..... and right now is the busy season

anyway right now the problem is when I try to run mamewah I get a runtime error "13" type mismatch........and thats it I have gone through the mamewah setup and all but cant get past the initial error

would love to get it work as I just added daphne (and a complete set of roms/dvd images) to my emu collection

whats your OS?  and did you make sure you unzipped everything into the same folder?

Delete the contents of the \mamewah\files folder, and then re-run MAMEWAH.  This will start fresh, enter your 'Emulator Executable' (eg c:\mame\mame.exe), and refresh the list (in 'Games List Options').

Assuming you are using the standard rom location (ie \mame\roms) and snap location (ie \mame\snap) then that is all!

yes, better to listen to minwah than me
