Title: Project 64 & Mamewah
Post by: Greaper on August 02, 2005, 07:09:42 am
Hi All, 

This is my first post after discovering this forum over 8 months ago,  I would like to thank you all for the invaluable information I have read here and all the answers to questions I have found without having to bother any of you...well the cabinet is nearly complete (I will post pics at some stage) Mamewah is working awesome with MAME & Fusion but I cannot get it to work with Project 64.  I previously had P64 v1.6 installed but could not get it to start via Mamewah, I tried the commandline wrapper from the CP Viewer site, also am using John's ini file (P 64 v1.6 works fine from the shortcut in Windows).  I got the shits with this and install P 64 v1.5 and the cracked exe from Stuzza's site.  I now at least get an error message when starting P64 within Mamewah, it is "Attempt to open file failed".  Then P64 window opens (as it would when opening shortcut in Windows).  I have attached my Nintendo64.ini file and an error log I found in my P64 folder.  Any help would be appreciated. 

Cheers

Greaper

1st of all, go back to Project64 v1.6. The performance is so much better. After you get that installed, goto the cpviewer site:

http://home.comcast.net/~cpviewer/nintendo64.htm

-Get the command line wrapper he has, and unzip it in the same directory you installed project64. Be sure to edit its config file to point the paths correctly

-Get the mamewah ini file he has listed, and change it for your paths. Keep in mind the emulator_executable line will point to the wrapper .exe file.

hey,

I'm currently looking at getting a few of these emulators fully configured for my front end too now.

All of the emulators that use wrappers however I'm coming across problems. (wrappers downloaded generally from cpviewers site)....on both pcs, both with winxp sp2, they all just give me an error message whenever you try to run the wrapper exe.

I'm assuming this must be something SP2 related.

anyone have any solutions?

cheers,
Tuck

Have uninstalled 1.5 and reinstalled 1.6, .Net Framework 1.1,  removed quotes from John's ini file,  played around with autodosbox, nodosbox, dosbox etc etc, still getting an error.  Opens fine from project 64 and plays no problem, you were right 1.6 runs heaps smoother,  so i'll just do that for now as my patience has gone missing, I'll watch the forums for a while and see if anyone manages to fix the problem and go from there, thanks guys for your help.
