I can't seem to get Chankast to work through Maximus Arcade. At first I could not run the wrapper and I had to add library file "Comdlg32.ocx" to my system32 folder. That did the trick for running the wrapper. I have Daemon Tools lite and I know I picked the correct drive letter for the wrapper. Now when I attempt to run Chankast through MA, my frontend, the screen just turns black. Then when I run Chankast outside of MA it shows that my plugins were switched. The default plugins which end in xxx work just fine but I think the wrapper might be changing them. How do I prevent this?? Running Chankast alpha v0.25 XP with SP2 Maximus Arcade v2.0.8 |

Maximus doesn't support chankast, just download nullDC. Runs way faster and supports chankast plugins to boot. http://forums.ngemu.com/nulldc-discussion/95446-nulldc-1-0-0-beta-1-6-07-11-2007-update.html and here http://www.vg-network.com/nulldc |

Maximus Arcade's wrapper is for the Chankast. Null DC is not supported. See more here: http://www.maximusarcade.com/max.htm#featured ~ DeLuSioNaL |

All I know is I love dc, and when I upgraded to the new beta, I just couldn't get chankast working again in max. I hunted and found null dc which in my opinion runs better on newer hardware. Here is the update notes on the 2.10 b2 beta. Maximus Arcade 2.10 beta 2 - Right-mouse click accessible menu for exiting game/emulator/frontend available on black screen after launching game - Support for Future Pinball 1.6 emulator - Support for Raine 0.50.5 emulator - Support for Sega Model 2 emulator - Support for NullDC emulator (Sega Dreamcast) - Support for Capcom Play System 3 emulator (CPS3) - Support for Ultra 64 (U64) emulator (Killer Instinct 1/2) - Support for Spectaculator emulator (Sinclair ZX Spectrum) - Support for NeoGeo CD (cue/iso) in Nebula 2.25 - Added HD resolution 1920x1080 (1080p) - Added extension ".sfc" to SNES scan list - Pre-Launch and Post-Launch executables applicable to each emulator setup - Command line parameters available - Variables %name, %dir, %parent, %desc are available in command line - Select window state its launched into (minimize, maximize, hidden, normal)- Command line parameters available for individual games through the 'Game List' tab in preferences - Variables %file, %name, %dir, %parent, %desc are available in command line - Command line parameters are saved into an easily accessible text file for manual updating - Command line overrides emulator generated command line- Refined the history.dat parsing for MAME - More sections are filtered properly - Increased font size for readability - History.dat can now be distributed with MA- Fixed Flash Player (was broken in beta 1) - Slightly relaxed the keystroke polling when MA is a background task - Added screenshot to movie delay option - Tweaked the preferences - Fixed miscellaneous bugs |

I am enlightened! Thanks for the info. I actually tried using Chankast and could not get it running properly (The program is old as their last update was 4 years ago!). Also, having Daemon Tools running in the background did not seem appealing to me at all. So I gave NullDC a shot and it worked fairly well, but I did not try to use it with Maximus Arcade. So to set up NullDC, I would simply setup the Sega Dreamcast dropdown (the same one I used for Chankast) and then just point to the NullDC executable? Is that all there is too it? Thanks again for this great info. ~ DeLuSioNaL |
