Title: Emulation Station Syntax
Post by: DisneyRob on June 14, 2018, 07:44:46 am
Okay have decided to try other frontends. Like the look of Emulation Station. but I can not get it to work,
Here is a sample of my code:

<systemList>
   
   
               <system>
    <name>nes</name>
    <fullname>Nintendo Entertainment System</fullname>
    <path>/h:/emulator/nes/roms/</path>
    <extension>.nes .zip .NES .ZIP</extension>
    <command>h:/emulator/nes/fceux/ %ROM%</command>
    <platform>nes</platform>
    <theme>nes</theme>
</system>
       
</systemList>
(yes the path is correct) I store my stuff on the H: of my computer
But when I fire up Emualtion Station I get the error it is not configured right. I have gone over this code many times. Cut and pasted it from the ES site.
Why is this not working?

knowing nothing at all about this environment..
fceux/ %ROM%</command>

The space between the / and the % seems wrong to me...

I don't know about it either but shouldnt you have the exe defined?

<command>h:/emulator/nes/fceux.exe %rom% </command>
