GensFE in Mamewah
Halo:
I'm struggling to get GensFE to be recognised in Mamewah. I have followed the screenshotarchives suggested CFG settings, but when I select Emulator 2 in the list, nothing happens. I have it pointing to the GensFE.exe file. I can get GensFE to play by simply double clicking the .exe file, but not from within Mamewah.
Also, there are a number of different suffixes for the games, depending on which version (US, World, etc) .. is this okay, or should I be changing them to one common ending?
Thx
TJ
Minwah:
So you have a list of games?
Is it when you hit start to play a game nothing happens? If so check your Emulator Executable, and ROM Folder settings etc. Also, make sure Show DOS Box is set to Yes (1 in the CFG file).
The suffixes are fine as they are :)

Are you sure you increased the maximum number of emulators to show in MAMEWAH? It's a config setting...

Halo:
Thanks for the help! :)
No .. no games list, I go to the 'select emulator' part, and 1 is Mame (working fine). I flip down to 'Emulator 2' (haven't named it yet) ... press 1 and I just get the plain Mamewah screen (the one you get by default even before you add Mame).
However, when I simply double click the .exe for GensFE it's fine. I checked the path too in Mamewah.
The show dos box .. I don't think I did that part .. I'll go and check. Also, I didn't increase the max emulators setting .. shouldn't there be the ones showing by default?
Thanks again!
Tony

Okay still no joy. I've pasted the top part of the CFG file, are there any obvious omissions?

Just a few more questions ...
What do the 'wah' bits stand for in Minwah and Mamewah? Also, where do we make a donation? Seeing someone so active in supporting their product on the forums has to be worth a few quid of anyones money.
