Any way to do this in mamewah or with standard mame?
iamnaeth:
Okay folks, I'm tired....tired of having to touch my keyboard inside of my cabinet to bypass those "ok" screens. I realize that the standard build of mame has two flags inside of it's ini to disable two of the warnings however, it doesn't help me with all of them. I don't care if the game doesn't emulate graphics or sound correctly if it runs ;). So the question is this, how do I use mamewah to disable all OK screens? If its not possible with the standard build of mame, what build lets me do it and how do I configure mamewah to do it? It its a mamewah limitation, how do I get around it?
Thanks all!

I'm in the same boat as this guy...
I've taken care of the warnings and exit confirmations for my actual MAME program, but when I use MAMEWAH or 3D ARCADE they show up again.
Thoughts?

Moving the joystick left and right will get around this.
It is not possible to disable these types of messages on the "official" MAME build

Soory but you're wrong ... ;D
Here's how:
Create de "mame.ini" file (if you don't have it already) using "mame -cc"
- Edit the "mame.ini" file
- Find the line:
### Mame CORE misc options ###
- Find the lines:
skip_disclaimer 0
skip_gameinfo 0
- Change them to:
skip_disclaimer 1
skip_gameinfo 1
- Save the file
Et voil

Even with the ini changes, you will still see some game screens, specifically bad dump msgs and the like (not 100% emulated, etc etc)
For the most part though, the ini changes will get rid of most. For the rest just hit left right on the joystick like was mentioned.
