Mame crashes extremely often when loading from Mamewah.
(1/1)
ThemeGuy:
When I select a game from mamewah to play, There is a 50% chance that I'll get a black screen with no sound. I then have to press ctrl+alt+del and end the mame process to go back to mamewah and start the game again. The second time usually works, and I have no problems during the gameplay at all, but getting the games to load is very iffy. Does anyone have a solution for me? I was using an older mame version, then when this problem started happening, I upgraded, to the newest one, but now it seems to happen more frequently.
Minwah:
Try the {safelaunch} flag - some systems require this.
ThemeGuy:
I don't know what that is.
Silver:
Its an option within Mamewah for how to launch an emulator. Should be info in the readme/docs or in the Mamewah forum over in MameWorld.

Just add {safelaunch} to the end of your commandline_format in the emuname.ini file.  If {nosafelaunch} is in that line already, delete it.
