| MameWah Config Help (rom path) |

Ok, I've RTFMed multiple times, but I don't see what I'm doing wrong. In mame.ini I've set the rom_path to: C:\Program Files\Mame32\roms which is where all my roms live. The emulator_executable is set to: c:\Program files\mame\mame.exe which is where the command-line verison of MAME lives. When I try to run a game, the "loading" screen appears, then shuts down but there's no game. Checking the log file it seems like MAMEWah is ignoring the rom_path setting: 11/12/2005 4:18:09 PM Commandline run: c:\PROGRA~1\mame\mame.exe ARKNOID2 {flags=9} There no path information for the rom. I'd expect to see something like: c:\PROGRA~1\mame\mame.exe "c:\program files\mame32\roms\ARKNOID2" {flags=9} (which does work if I run it at the command line) Any ideas as to what might be wrong? Thanks. |

How have you got the list to generate? Is it based on (paths different of course) ### List Generation Settings ### rom_path f:\MAME\roms rom_extension zip dat_file nms_file catver_ini_file f:\MAME\catver.ini list_generation_method rom_folder_vs_listxml This should display the games you have. Perhaps the list generation was not done right. What does the log say after the {flags=9} - give any reason for the shutdown? Mine has the following (notice it has different flags - not sure why) 13/11/2005 6:41:44 PM Layout selected: D:\Mame progs\mamewah_v161\layouts\Classic 800x600\layout.lay 13/11/2005 6:41:45 PM Ctrlr file selected: D:\Mame progs\mamewah_v161\ctrlr\default.ini 13/11/2005 6:41:46 PM Commandline run: CMD.EXE /c f:\MAME\mame0100.exe 1942 -verifyroms > D:\MAMEPR~1\MAMEWA~1\files\verify {flags=17} 13/11/2005 6:41:46 PM Commandline run: f:\MAME\mame0100.exe 1942 {flags=12} 13/11/2005 6:41:57 PM MAMEWAH quit EDIT - forgot that rom_path (mame.ini) in the mamewah folder is only for mamewah functions -list generation etc. mame.ini in your c:\Program files\mame\ folder tells mame.exe where your roms are - so you'll need to have it set in there. ### Windows path and directory options ### rompath C:\Program Files\Mame32\roms |
