I've added some more start/end frames to the "ssf" file. There are around 30 odd now - these are mostly games that do not generate a viewable attract at all under normal condiditons, with a few tweaks... I was wondering - there are some games eg Alligator Hunt, where the master does not work 'aligator' (protection) but there is a working clone: 'aligatun' (no protection) that works fine. I've only looked at masters (saves so much time and storage). Is it best just to manually edit the batch files in these cases or is there another work around? @MrSalty I've not added your contribution yet as originally I think the plan was to only add 100% complete attracts to the ssf text (ie every single frame of a v long attract where the auto-detect only picked up the first loop.) - some of yours are geared to mostly catching gameplay. Not sure what everyone thinks about this? |

I dig... some of those games have really long intros though and that seemed useless to me so I tried to get some relevent gameplay in them. If thats not what you need... I understand. That being said.... on some of them normal loop detection will only result in a portion of the intro and not the full attract video anyway. |

yes I've just noticed APB does not auto-generate a good intro at all - I'll sort that. I was debating a second list just for pure gameplay videos. This would take a long time to complete (somone would need to get the frames for every master) but several people do seem keen on just gameplay videos. It would also cut down on the size if that was an issue. At the moment, I'm just going to cruise through the videos and get something going for games that completely failed to have a good intro... |

Hi Guys I really struggling with the movie maker, I have downloaded all the relevant files and set up the batch files using the listgen utility. I have all the folders in the right place (virtualdub in the same folder as Mame), but when I launch the moviemaker.bat the first attract mode starts (005 by Sega) and I get the following error: --- Code: ---Average FPS: 1460.365076 (100 frames) C:\mame>time /T 22:35 The system cannot find the file specified. 10-frame match detected between frame 403 and 1500 movie will run between frames 268 and 1380 Average FPS: 58.996781 (1440 frames) The system cannot find the path specified. The system cannot find the file specified. C:\mame>time /T 22:36 --- End code --- It then just hangs up and does not do anything at all. What am I doing wrong peps? Thanks Lea |
