Title: Problem with Daphne in Mamewah
Post by: jjd on September 19, 2005, 10:48:45 am
I'm having trouble getting Daphne running in Mamewah.

Daphne launches from Mamewah fine.  In Dragon's Lair, for example, I can hear the beeps the preceed the video, but when the video is ready to start displaying on the screen, the screen changes from black to a greeninsh black and I get no video.

I can hear Dragon's Lair running and I can use the controls, but I cannot see it on screen.   This only happens when Daphne is launched through Mamewah.  All of the games that I run through Daphne work fine when launched with DaphneLoader. 

Any suggestions?

I just set up Daphne with MameWah 2 days ago.  I was having a ton of problems until I finally used this for the "emulator_executable" in my Daphne ini:

emulator_executable     D:\Daphne\daphne.exe

That's it.  No extra attributes or anything.  After I removed all of the other stuff ({nodosbox}{nosafelaunch}) on that line it worked perfectly.

Solved. 

Added the -nohwaccel to the command line and it worked like a charm.

The {flags} should only be used in the commandline_format setting...the executable should always just point to an .exe file.
