(1/2) > >>
M.A.M.E Power:
Ok, I have got the Gens emulator running no problem. Also have my list of games appear within the mamewah skin along with artwork etc.

The problem I am having is when I attempt to load a game the following occurs:

1. Screen goes blank
2. Start to hear the title screen followed by music
3. No picture at all >:(

Below is my Gens.cfg file for reference:

Gens is using the wrong settings.

Try changing the setting 'render fullscreen' to 9 instead of 1.
M.A.M.E Power:
Thanks for the help

Unfortunately it did not resolve the problem - any other suggestions?

Thanks

screaming:
If you open a command prompt and run the gens command as mamewah would, does it work?
M.A.M.E Power:
Thanks for the reply

If i open the command prompt and type d:/gens/gensfe.exe

Then it opens the emulator.
