Still having Mamewah List problems
(1/1)
rbarr110:
OK - still having problems with custom lists in Mamewah, after trying to figure it out, I found a video tutorial on where to put the catver file and what mamewah options to select.

http://www.screenshotarchive.com/mwtutorial.htm

However, after watching the tutorial, several of the Game List Options (Custom Games List in particular) shown in the video are not there on my machine. ( I am aware that the video is for an older version of Mamewah)  The only options I have in "Game Lists Options" is (if I remember correctly, not at home now) is "Generate List", "Main", "Favorites", and "Find Game".  I have done generate list and all it does is update the "Main" list.

What am I missing or need to do different?  I am using version 1.61 and mame 0.99.
RetroACTIVE:
You need to create an ini file for each list you want...

default is mame-0.ini

copy it to mame-1.ini

example of each ini file:

### mame-0.ini (mamewah v1.62) ###

list_title                                All Games

### Games List Settings ###
cycle_list                                1

### Execution Settings ###
pre_emulator_app_commandlines             
emulator_commandline                     
post_emulator_app_commandlines           

### Settings used by MAMEWAH ###
current_game                              27






### mame-1.ini (mamewah v1.62) ###

list_title                                Classics

### Games List Settings ###
cycle_list                                1
list_type                                 normal
display_clone_info                        0
max_favorites                             0

### Execution Settings ###
pre_emulator_app_commandlines             
emulator_commandline                     
post_emulator_app_commandlines           

### Settings used by MAMEWAH ###
current_game                              6


Once you have more than one ini for mame you will be able to select the list in the menu... othewise you will only get one.
