Hello everyone,

I wasn't sure where to post this, so feel free to move if needed to the correct area.

I have a problem that i'm hoping somone may be able to help me with.

I'm currently converting a Simpsons cab into a MAME cab, everythings working as it should be, but its the finishing touches that are causing me the biggest trouble.

I'm using MameWah v1.62 (final) and i've downloaded one of the skins packs called Multi Emu Skin from http://www.localarcade.com/screenshotarchive/skins2.htm

The only problem is, the snapshots are showing up, but I can't seem to get another piece of art to show up (i.e box art), thus being left with 1 empty black box.

So it looks like this:

### Artwork Settings ###
artwork_image_paths                       C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Desktop\Zsnes\snap


the boxart is in another folder called "boxart" and i've tried a few different ways but can never get both to show up at the same time.

### Artwork Settings ###
artwork_image_paths                       C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Desktop\Zsnes\snap
artwork_image_paths                       C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Desktop\Zsnes\boxart


### Artwork Settings ###
artwork_1_image_paths                       C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Desktop\Zsnes\snap
artwork_1_image_paths                       C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Desktop\Zsnes\boxart


### Artwork Settings ###
artwork_1_image_paths                       C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Desktop\Zsnes\snap
artwork_2_image_paths                       C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Desktop\Zsnes\boxart


I've tried an older version of MameWah (where it seems doing this is much easier but unfortunatly it conflicts with other programs i'm using so I'm forced to use the latest version).

When I ran 1.62, it was:

### Artwork Settings ###
artwork_image_paths                       c:\zsnesw\snaps;c:\zsnesw\boxart
