OK, I have yet to have this daphne.nms file work. I have read all of the threads here, as well as everywhere else that popped up on google. No matter what I do the framefile names display. I suppose I could rename the framefiles and write a game specific .ini file for every laserdisc game so it knows what framefile to use(not even sure if this would work, and even if it did it seems troublesome). Here is my daphne.ini. I am using the latest version of daphne and mamewah 1.61. ### daphne.ini (mamewah v1.61) ### emulator_title daphne ### List Generation Settings ### rom_path c:\daphne\framefile rom_extension txt dat_file nms_file c:\daphne\daphne.nms catver_ini_file list_generation_method rom_folder ### Execution Settings ### emulator_executable c:\daphne\daphne.exe commandline_format [name] vldp -framefile "C:\daphne\framefile\[name].txt" -fullscreen -nohwaccel{nodosbox}{nosafelaunch} alt_commandline_format_1 [name]{autodosbox}{nosafelaunch} alt_commandline_format_2 [name]{autodosbox}{nosafelaunch} game_specific_config_path ### Artwork Locations ### artwork_1_image_path c:\daphne\images artwork_2_image_path artwork_3_image_path artwork_4_image_path artwork_5_image_path artwork_6_image_path artwork_7_image_path artwork_8_image_path artwork_9_image_path artwork_10_image_path movie_preview_path movie_artwork_no 1 ### Screen-Saver Settings ### enable_music_in_screensaver 1 saver_type slideshow movie_path movie_fullscreen 1 quit_delay 30 wrapper_executable wrapper_commandline_format [name]{nodosbox}{nosafelaunch} scr_file ### External Application Settings ### ipc_file_or_path app_1_executable app_1_commandline_format app_2_executable app_2_commandline_format app_3_executable app_3_commandline_format auto_launch_apps ### Additional Settings ### music_path c:\music\daphne lcd_display_file_path lcd_fe_text ### Settings used by MAMEWAH ### current_list 0 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks fellas! :badmood: |

The daphne.ini file you posted appears to match mine okay. Have you checked the NMS file itself? If I remember correctly, mine is a text file in the following format: --- Code: ---Dragons Lair|dlair Space Ace|ace --- End code --- I just made up the names above, but the basic format is <detailed description>|<framefile name> I can double check all of this when I get home also. |

Thank you for the reply what. My .nms seems to be ok. For the life of me I cant understand why this wont work. What version of MAMEWAH are you using? |

I was initially using Mamewah 1.61, but have recently been messing around with 1.62 I will post my daphne.ini (for 1.61 as that is the version you appear to be using) and NMS file when I get home so that you can compare. Perhaps I missed some small difference. I will also check the naming of my files, etc within Daphne. |

Alrighty, here are my files. Firstly Daphne.ini ### daphne.ini (mamewah v1.61) ### emulator_title Daphne ### List Generation Settings ### rom_path c:\daphne\framefile rom_extension txt dat_file nms_file c:\daphne\daphne.nms catver_ini_file list_generation_method rom_folder ### Execution Settings ### emulator_executable c:\daphne\daphne.exe commandline_format [name] vldp -framefile "c:\daphne\framefile\[name].txt" -blank_searches -fullscreen -nohwaccel -noserversend{dosbox}{safelaunch} alt_commandline_format_1 [name] alt_commandline_format_2 [name] game_specific_config_path ### Artwork Locations ### artwork_1_image_path c:\daphne\images artwork_2_image_path artwork_3_image_path artwork_4_image_path artwork_5_image_path artwork_6_image_path artwork_7_image_path artwork_8_image_path artwork_9_image_path artwork_10_image_path movie_preview_path movie_artwork_no 1 ### Screen-Saver Settings ### enable_music_in_screensaver 0 saver_type movie movie_path movie_fullscreen 1 quit_delay 30 wrapper_executable wrapper_commandline_format [name]{nodosbox}{nosafelaunch} scr_file ### External Application Settings ### ipc_file_or_path app_1_executable app_1_commandline_format app_2_executable app_2_commandline_format app_3_executable app_3_commandline_format auto_launch_apps ### Additional Settings ### music_path lcd_display_file_path lcd_fe_text ### Settings used by MAMEWAH ### current_list 0 And here is my Daphne.nms Astron Belt|astron Astron Belt (Pioneer)|astronp Badlands|badlands Bega's Battle|bega Cliff Hanger|cliff Cliff Hanger (Alt)|cliffalt Cobra Command|cobraab Cobra Command (M.A.C.H. 3 Hardware)|cobram3 Dragon's Lair (US Enhanced 1.1)|dle11 Dragon's Lair (US Enhanced 2.0)|dle20 Dragon's Lair|lair Dragon's Lair 2: Timewarp|lair2 Esh's Aurunmilla|esh Galaxy Ranger|galaxy Goal To Go|gtg Space Ace (US Enhanced 1)|sae Space Ace|ace Star Blazer|blazer Super Don Quix-ote (Long)|sdq Super Don Quix-ote (Short)|sdqshort Thayer's Quest|tq M.A.C.H. 3|mach3 Us vs Them|uvt Interstellar Laser Fantasy|Interstellar Laser Grand Prix|lgp In the NMS, the names after the '|' match the names of the framefiles. With the above files, I get the names of the games showing rather than the shorter framefile names. Hope this helps. |
