Title: Mala command line for 4d0 emulator
Post by: eds1275 on January 07, 2015, 01:34:26 pm
I have been hacking my way through this for a while. What I have so far is

-StartLoadFile "%rom%"

and that will give me the most specific error message I have been able to achieve which is "blah blah blah failed to load rom xxxxxx"

it gives me the entire rom name. Any ideas?

Also any way to disable/hide the mame portion? I have only consoles on it ATM. I put mame on there so I can get it to run but it still shows a gamelist. If I could hide or skip that list it would be great. If not I'm sure I can find a way around it.

i'm using alcohol to mount a virtual image of the disc and its working for me.

I got it working without mounting disc images. In fact I have the whole thing running super smooth now, the only issue being the mame screen popping up. I have a dummy rom in there that just crashes it back to the menu and I've named it do not play. It's a minor inconvenience!
