Title: LEDBlinky and Mamewah issue on startup
Post by: mccoy178 on March 01, 2010, 10:38:50 pm
Hello,
Upon starting Mamewah, with Ledblinky selected as a launching app, I get a solid black screen.  I have to scroll down to the bottom, right click on the ledblinky icon over on the right and exit it.  Upon exiting of it, Mamewah works like normal.  Any suggestions?  Here is my latest Mamewah log:

The LEDBlinky support site has some info on how to configure Mamewah with blinky. I'm guessing you need the {nowait} flag added to the launch command.
http://www.dndw.com/arcadeaddiction/LEDBlinky_Support.htm#MamewahConfig (http://www.dndw.com/arcadeaddiction/LEDBlinky_Support.htm#MamewahConfig)

If that doesn't help, turn on the debug and verbose options and email me the debug.zip file.

That was it!  I tried using the search feature on here and I just couldn't find the correct wording I guess.  Thanks again!  I have not had any success with it running inside of Mamewah itself.  It is on, but it only lightly flashes when a sound is made.  There is no randomization of the lights or such.

Most likely a configuration issue. If you can't figure it out, send me the debug.zip and I'll take a look.

Thanks again!  Will do.  Now I'm going to get this installed on the jukebox. :cheers:

let me know if you are still having issues, I have it working with mamewah and could send you my ini files.  The only issue so far is for PC games, other than that works 100%.
