problem loading nintendo64 and visual pinball games

[coinopman]

I installed  MaLa using unclet's setup and I get "ERROR" "attempt to open file failed." Any ideas what I missed? Mame runs gr8. I have only installed vpinball and pj64 with hack so far.

What version of Project 64 are you using?  If you are using version 1.7.0.25 or later, the command line needs to be:

Code: [Select]

"%path%\%rom%.%ext%"
Earlier versions of PJ64 cannot have the quotes as I recall which creates major problems for roms that have spaces in the rom name.  If this isn't your issue, consider posting screenshots of your first two screens of Mala's PJ64 configuration.


I also run VP successfully.  If you post your configuration for this, I may can help.  I do not use UncleT's guide so my way may be a little different.

That fixed the project64 problem. Now to figure out how to send a screenshot of vpinball. Question: i haven't installed any other emu's yet but is the same exe problem i had with pj64 the same on some other emu's?

The command line that I use for VP is:

Code: [Select]

%path%\%rom%.%ext%
The rom extension should be VPT.

The rom path should point to the folder where your tables are.

That is what I have. When i select say, black knight, it opens visual pinball blank screen.On basic tab executable = C:\VPINBALL\VPinball.exe.exe   Rom path = C:\VPINBALL\Tables execute tab - command line = "%path%\%rom%.%ext%"

Was this is a typo?

executable = C:\VPINBALL\VPinball.exe.exe

command line = "%path%\%rom%.%ext%"

As you can see in my post above, I don't use the quotation marks in my VP command line.  It may not matter, but I don't have them.

that is not a typo on executable. apparently that is not not. i took off the last exe on that line and got error code 2. i will reinstall vpinball and try again.
