3darcade (Emulaxian) and Advancemame
Davestar:
Has anyone had any luck in setting this up. I have the proper configuration, can launch the game and even get it running properly only without sound. Of course I know Advmame is a dos program, I'm launching it through windows with a program already using the sound card, and I heard that alone could be the problem.
Has anyone figured a work around for this, or is it still in my setup?

I myself have run advancemame with my fe for a long time without any problems...I only recently changed to use the windows version of mame...and I still test it with it before I release a version of the fe..so it should work ok ;)
Yeah having another program running that uses the soundcard can cause the sound not to play in advancemame. But that is not related to it being launched from the fe. Just run advancemame from the commandline you will probably get the same result... Also did you enable your soundcard in advancemame's cfg file or setup a commandline option in the fe to do so...

I ran advmame from a command prompt from windows and got sound. The sound option is set to auto, should i set it to SB (as I have an awe64)? Thanks again for the great support.

Mmm interesting... I have it set to sb... I can't test it right now because after the recent hd crash I changed my desktop pc to windows xp...I will test it on my cab the next time I open it for some maintenance but that could take a while...

Thanks, I have a few more things to try too.
I'll try setting it to sb in the advmame cfg and also then in the emulation options.
