Title: Pressing "1" in Mamewah Won't Launch Games Anymore
Post by: rerstad on December 06, 2006, 01:59:05 pm

I thought I largely had my cab set up, but suddenly Mamewah quit launching games.  When I press the one player button (mapped to "1")--nothing.  When I hit "1" on a keyboard attached to the computer--nothing.  If I go into a word program, the button and key both type "1".  It was working fine a half hour ago.  What's up now? 

Thanks for the help.

Tried reinstalling Mamewah--still no luck.  The "1" key just does nothing--no response from the computer at all--doesn't attempt to load or anything.  It does work when  I exit and need to select an option there.  Just doesn't work to launch a game.

Post the mamewah log file. Could be MAME not launching the game (due to upgrade/incorrect rom/etc.)

Check the mamewah.log file, but it sounds like Mamewah is not finding your emulator.exe to me - check your emulator.ini file for things like this.
