Title: OK, I need slight "How To" in running MAME command prompt....
Post by: postalp123 on May 08, 2006, 11:26:19 pm
As with my earlier post, I am running MAME DOS.

In order to create a Config File for MAME, it say the following:


MAME is a console application, you should launch it from a command prompt.

Usage:    MAME  -createconfig / -cc

   Creates the default MAME.INI file. All the following configuration
   options can be permanently changed by editing this configuration file.

etc....


OK, so I've tried starting DOS by running "Command", the DOS box opens and I get this:


C:\DOCUME~1\PC-1>



From there I'm at a loss.

Any help would be super!

Started DOS, or running a command prompt?  From the looks of things, the latter.

Either way, you need to learn how to use the "CD" command.

I recommend getting a DOS book on basics and start reading.

Go to http://www.gabrieleponti.com/software/ and download Sendtotoys. When installing the program uncheck everything except command prompt. When you're done just right click on mame.exe and highlight and click on command prompt. Now type configure --cc
