--- Quote from: mitsurugi on March 16, 2013, 11:48:22 am ---Hello. I'm trying to launch 2 makaron games.
I have 2 mame roms directories and another rom directory for other games.
When i try to add mame.chd, mala said: mala set not set or found.
My mame.chd:
if "%3" == "D:\ROMS\Dummies roms\Ikaruga" goto ikaruga
if "%3" == "D:\ROMS\Dummies roms\vs2_2k" goto vs2_2k
groovymame.exe %1 %2
exit
:ikaruga
cd ..\ikarugaemulator
closemul.exe
exit
:vs2_2k
cd ..\VirtuaStriker2emulator
closemul.exe
exit
Where could be the problem?
thanks.

Do you mean mame.cmd (not mame.chd)?
Do the games show up in your gamelist?
mitsurugi:
Thanks. The problem was in *.chd. I have put mame.cmd and no error appears, but when i try to launch ikaruga or vs2_2k mala does nothing...

After Mala launches mame.cmd, Mala's job is done.
I don't see anything in your mame.cmd that would launch makaron.
You direct it to the folder and launch closemul, but I don't see where you have the command line to launch makaron.
I have two different sections for Makaron because some of my roms are in zip files and some of them are in the dat format that the author used in earlier versions.
--- Code: ---:Makaron
cd \Emulators\Makaron
closemul.exe NAOMI.exe %1.zip
exit
:Makaron2
cd \Emulators\Makaron
closemul.exe NAOMI.exe %1.dat
exit
--- End code ---
Before doing any of this you should be able to launch a game from the command prompt or via a batch file.
Then you'll understand what Mala, or in this case mame.cmd needs to send in order to launch the game.

Thank you very much for your help. I think there are a error in mame.cmd, because makaron never runs.
I have configured mala in other emus for launch makaron and works fine. Exe launcher: closemul.exe and command line: "%path%\%rom%.%ext%"
in closemul config i have enter naomi.exe as executable.
When i try to launch virtua striker 2 (vs2_2k) in mame gamelist, makaron never runs.
I have try with:
:vs2_2k
cd ..\VirtuaStriker2emulator
closemul.exe NAOMI.exe %1.zip
exit
and with:
:vs2_2k
cd ..\VirtuaStriker2emulator
closemul.exe "%path%\%rom%.%ext%"
exit
and with:
:vs2_2k
cd ..\VirtuaStriker2emulator
closemul.exe NAOMI.exe %1.zip
exit
But nevers works. The other mame roms works fine.
My mame romset normal folder is: 1, makaron roms are in folder 2, and mame chd folder are in 3. I think i must use %2 in mame.cmd for makaron roms (ikaruga and vs2_2k).
What could be the error?
Thanks.
BadMouth:
try specifying the full path instead of having cd ..\
If you're going to have a different section for each game, use the rom name instead of %1
Also make sure you've removed the rom from your MAME romset.
%1 is the rom name, has nothing to do with what folder it's in.
Can you launch the Makaron game via command line?
What is the exact command line you're using to do that?
