Title: Is there a way around pressing 'ok'
Post by: gdilly on June 23, 2004, 06:18:13 pm
I've searched and have been looking for what may be a losing battle.  Is there anyway to not have to press 'ok' upon starting a game?

I guess I need to clarify.  

I want a way to bypass that all together, so I will never have to do that.

You can do this -- in MAME32 at least --  under Options>Interface Options.

Set the following in your mame.ini file.

skip_disclaimer         1
skip_gameinfo          1

The only ones you will get then are the "this game doesn't work properly" messages.

I've already disabled those two screens and was just wishing i could get past that screen too.

Grab one of the versions of mame that has all the warning screens removed.

Or better yet get the source, remove the warnings yourself and recompile - it sounds scary but it's actually much easier than you would think.

a quick google for "compile mame" will tell you everything you need to know.

I thought that using the source meant that you were not supposed to reconfigure it to remove the warnings?

No, you just can't redistribute the executable.
