Set up a thumb drive today with WAH on it. Works just fine on the laptop and not on the cab. Looks to be a resolution issue, as Wah does the following error sequence: 6/14/2009 8:21:33 PM MAMEWAH v1.65 launched 6/14/2009 8:21:33 PM Cursor scheme: Windows default, Arrow: (None), Wait: (None), AppStarting: (None) 6/14/2009 8:21:33 PM Desktop colour: 16711680 6/14/2009 8:21:33 PM Wallpaper filename: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Pictures\green.bmp 6/14/2009 8:21:33 PM Desktop display mode: 640x480 @ 59Hz, 32bit colour 6/14/2009 8:21:33 PM Decimal symbol: '.' 6/14/2009 8:21:37 PM Games list read: mame-0.lst 6/14/2009 8:21:39 PM Mode 640 x 480 @ 60Hz, 16bit colour not available 6/14/2009 8:21:40 PM Mode 640 x 480 @ 59Hz, 32bit colour selected after 1 attempt(s) at 1/2 second intervals. 6/14/2009 8:21:41 PM MAMEWAH quit On the laptop, here was the successful attempt: 6/14/2009 8:13:15 PM MAMEWAH v1.65 launched 6/14/2009 8:13:15 PM Cursor scheme: Windows default, Arrow: (None), Wait: (None), AppStarting: (None) 6/14/2009 8:13:15 PM Desktop colour: 16777215 6/14/2009 8:13:15 PM Wallpaper filename: C:\Documents and Settings\eric.cudnohoske\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Wallpaper1.bmp 6/14/2009 8:13:15 PM Desktop display mode: 1024x768 @ 60Hz, 32bit colour 6/14/2009 8:13:15 PM Decimal symbol: '.' 6/14/2009 8:13:16 PM Games list read: mame-0.lst 6/14/2009 8:13:18 PM Mode 640 x 480 @ 60Hz, 16bit colour selected after 2 attempt(s) at 1/2 second intervals. 6/14/2009 8:13:21 PM Layout selected: D:\MAMEwah\config\layout.lay 6/14/2009 8:13:21 PM No. joystick devices attached: 0 6/14/2009 8:13:21 PM Ctrlr file selected: D:\MAMEwah\config\mamewah.cfg 6/14/2009 8:13:21 PM Keyboard enabled 6/14/2009 8:13:35 PM Mode 1024 x 768 @ 60Hz, 32bit colour selected after 1 attempt(s) at 1/2 second intervals. 6/14/2009 8:13:37 PM MAMEWAH quit Hoping someone has an idea (besides I'm in over my head ::))? Thanks. Eric |

Looking at this again, I see Andy states the following on his site for configuring his card with Wah: MAMEWAH supports 640 X 288 mode in Windows for a flicker-free non-interlaced display with an arcade monitor. (to configure this, look in mamewah.cfg and change the "640 X 480" to "640 X 288"). How do I edit the mamewah.cfg file? I can't figure that out. Thanks. Eric |
| Ginsu Victim:
The mamewah.cfg contains no settings for the display. You need to edit the layouts. |
| BigDaddyE:
That kind of makes sense, I'm not sure how to edit a .cfg file though. Do you mean I have to place or make a layout? I'm not sure how it picks a layout on one computer and not another? Sorry I'm so dense! Eric |
| Ginsu Victim:
In the mamewah root folder, there is a layout designer program. Load each layout you're going to use (from mamewah/config/mame, etc) and change the resolution, refresh, etc. |
