Game Launcher HELP!
<< < (2/6) > >>
CurmudgeonlyBastrd:
     I'm having the exact same problem. I have set up GL and it recognizes my roms, snaps, etc. But after launching a game from within GL it crashes out. I also tried this in DOS, and a message appears "invalid directory" yet I KNOW it's the right directory... and yes I have no problem launching the games from the command line manually, in either windoze or DOS. Distortion and I are having the same problem. My log looks just like his. Whats up?

Jakobud:
This is wierd i have never seen this problem.  What OS are you using?  I'm using Windows 2000 with no problems.  You guys using WinXP?
Distortion:
yeah, i'm in XP pro....and just like curmudgeonlybastrd, all my snapshots work, all the games show up, the rom search feature works flawlessly, etc.  I'm gonna try some stuff with nesticle and see if i have the same problem.
Birdtales:
I had the same problems in XP Pro. I wound up getting it to work by placing Mame in a first level directory (ie. C:\mame) and changing the pointers to it, worked after I did that. I'm thinking it just didn't like the combination of long file names and the way that XP handles them. Of course that's just a guess I have no programming experience.
Distortion:
My mame.exe is in c:\MAME and the roms are in c:\MAME\roms.  I just tried Nesticle and RockNES and neither worked.
