I got Gens to work using the cmd wrapper.  ;D

Just get Gens setup how you want, then go into gens.cfg (in Gens dir) and set fullscreen=1. Then in lconfig.ini, the first handle is "Gens - Idle" and the second is "null". Clear the delimeter field (no space after the = sign). Finally, in the cmdlist just list all your roms without extention and followed by a ;

Let me know if you need more help. ;)

Mmmm... try this from the directory where your roms are stored:

dir *.zip /b > list.txt

Open list.txt on a decent text editor (although Notepad will do). Replace all .zip with blanks (don't enter anything in the Replace with textbox)

Copy and paste to the lcongif.ini

Have fun.

:-XCorrection: You do not need to list all roms in the cmdlist. Just make sure that you clear the delimeter field in lconfig.ini and the command line options in gens.cfg (in lazarus\cfgs dir).

After I posted I got thinking why I would need to put the rom names in the ini.  ??? So tweaked a few things and found the space in the command line options that was being put inbetween the path and the rom on the command line.  I could've sworn I tried that. Sorry for the wrong info.

Insert foot firmly into mouth and swallow! ;D

Yeah the intrepreter feature is completely optional the idea is you only use it on games that need intrepretation.  It's very handy for mame if you want to give a few odd-ball games special command-line options or emus like zinc, that need EVERY game converted.  I have a new one coming that's much more powerful though.  

Something for everyone to realize about the wrappers.  They are not a free ride!  Don't expect to be able to plop one in a dir and expect it to work right away, you have to play with all of the settings and different handle names and other options before you get it right.  With something this flexiable comes more setup, it's just a natural conclusion.
