MAMEWAH not turning the MAME 'OK' screen off properly.
« on: August 23, 2006, 06:49:03 pm »
I've set MAME up so that the disclaimer screen and the 'type ok to continue' screen don't appear. This works perfectly when running MAME from the command line.

However, on MAMEWAH it seems to do it only once (the first game I load after starting MAMEWAH) then the 'type OK' screen appears when starting any game after that. Very peculiar, and when checking the config for MAME I can see no errors, and it is not being changed by MAMEWAH.

Any ideas as to why this might happen?
Better still, how to cure it? :banghead:

That's how mame works.  Or at least recent versions of mame.  You can't turn off the initial ok message and it will show the first time you run the game regardless of what options you have set. 

What you have been doing is trying a game you haven't played before first (thus the ok screen) getting confused and then trying games you have played before after that.
