right im getting somewhere I can get it working finally if I # out the mame lines otherwise it just trys to run mame instead of mess for some reason. Not sure why its not calling mess when it can see the directory the rom is located in. I changed my batch file to read
d:
cd \Emulators\mess
which seems to be working .
So now I just cant work out why its trying to run the other_roms\nes under mame rather than mess.
edit It would seem after using that pause command its ot going to the :mess section of the script and I can t see why
if "%2" == "d:\Emulators\other_roms\nes\" goto mess
mame.exe %1
pause
exit
:mess
cd \
d:
cd Emulators\mess
mess64.exe nes -cart %2\%1.nes
pause
exit
output
D:\Emulators\mame>if "D:\Emulators\other_roms\nes" == "d:\D:\Emulators\other_roms\nes\" goto mess
D:\Emulators\mame>mame.exe rom_name._(USA)
Unknown system rom_name._(USA)'
"rom_name._(USA)" approximately matches the follow
