Title: Can't get images to load in mamewah
Post by: thomascirca on August 02, 2010, 07:57:51 pm

Hi guys,

For some reason I can't get images (ex marquees, titles, etc) to display in mamewah. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Here's my config:

### Mame.ini (mamewah v1.62) ###

emulator_title                            Mame

### List Generation Settings ###
rom_path                                  c:\mame\roms
rom_extension                             zip
dat_file                                  c:\mame\mame.dat
nms_file                                  c:\mame\mame.nms
catver_ini_file                           c:\mame\catver.ini
list_generation_method                    rom_folder_vs_listxml

### Execution Settings ###
pre_emulator_app_commandlines             c:\winipac\winipac.exe "c:\winipac\mame.ipc"
emulator_commandline                      c:\mame\mame.exe "[rompath]\[name].[romext]"{autodosbox}{nosafelaunch}
post_emulator_app_commandlines            c:\winipac\winipac.exe "c:\winipac\mamewah.ipc"
general_app_commandlines                  c:\cpvw\cpvw.exe -r=[name] -c=[cloneof];c:\controlsviewer\controlsviewer.exe mamewah;c:\histview\histview.exe -r=[name]

### Artwork Locations ###
artwork_image_paths                       C:\mamewah\titles;c:\mamewah\marquees
movie_preview_path                        c:\mame\videos
movie_artwork_no                          1

### Screen-Saver Settings ###
enable_music_in_screensaver               0
select_random_game                        0
saver_type                                saver_commandline
movie_path                               
movie_fullscreen                          1
quit_delay                                30
saver_commandline                         c:\mamewah\screensaver\ms_pacman.scr /s

### Additional Settings ###
music_path                               
lcd_display_file_path                     

### Settings used by MAMEWAH ###
current_list                              0

Any help would be appreciated!

Are your artwork paths correct? If so, do you have your layout pointing to them? Titles will be artwork 1, marquees artwork 2.  You need to make sure those are set in the layout.

The image paths are set correctly and I have the artwork set up properly in the layout designer-- I'll go back and give it another shot.
