Dragon King Video Card Poll and Bug Report Thread
Howard_Casto:
Guys this is the final warning... this is NOT a place to ask questions, it's a place to report bugs. Have you read the first post? Did you notice that I have yet to answer anyone?
DarkWolfNine:
Howard,
I have tried DK 0.7 with my ATI All-In-Wonder 128 (Rage 128) with the first settings you mentioned above. I sit with the same white bar over the text that says parsing listinfo.... I tried with the following settings:
in the frontend.ini
rage128 = 1
texformat = 0
RenderMode = 64 (partial)
I will next try w/ RenderMode set to entirely Software (32 I believe)
***** Update ***
I tried the following above but with 32 for software rendering instead.
same thing happens. white bar over parsing mame for listinfo... after about 6 seconds or so...
I did CTRL-ALT-DEL and chose End-Task on the Enhanced List Generator becuase it was NOT RESPONDING.. And then I waiting a little bit longer, and the dragon screen came up , and then to the screen but in huge fonts was a message that the MasterList wasn't created.... or something to that effect. I had to exit from there. But at least it points toward the ListGenerator.
anyway, thanks for your great work, and I hope this helps.
Howard_Casto:
I had the rest of this thread removed due to a few people getting off-topic.
Please don't take it personally, as this is here to help determine possible bugs, not to solve people's setup issues or have a place to bash all of my hard work.
Perhaps my wording was not specific enough in the first post, so I'll explain again.
This is a poll about video cards and a bug report/update thread.
This means:
no comments
no questions
and don't expect a reply from a bug report that you included a question with (notice i just said no questions)...
If you are having issues then you have to contact me or post another thread. If you find what you believe to be a genuine bug (or compatibility issue with a video card) then post it here. Otherwise do so somewhere else.
Now I am very busy for the next two weeks (except for today) so don't expect any solutions for a while.
A big thank you to everyone who has been posting bugs and keeping a positive outlook on progress towards getting them fixed. I'll let everyone know when I "return" so that progress reports can get started again.

Howard- I have the same issue. I am running Windows 98SE- 1.1ghz Amd T-bird .7 of Dragon King and I've tried Mame .66 ans .70.
Howard_Casto:
I'm going to break my own rule here and answer this one.
Generating the masterlist takes time on some pcs. To get an idea of how long it takes open up a command prompt, go to your mame dir and type:
mame.exe -listinfo <test.txt
However long it takes to finish is how long it will take dk to make that part of the list because this is exactly how dk does it. It will say "not responding" the whole time the listgenerator runs and obviously if you close that app the masterlist won't be generated properly, thus the error.
