Loadman (if you read this), First of all the app you made for the led wiz is ace.
I didn’t even need to read any distructions…(he says even though he cant get it to work 100%)… I programmed my ledwiz and booted up mala and voila. Control panel looks sweet. I was wondering how I was going to inform the ledwiz of which controls to light up for which games
The little thing knew all by its self
I now have one problem, which I cant solve searching BYOAC.
When I boot up the PC and boot straight to mala it gives me an error “LED_WIZ PLUGIN ERROR: Config file not located at :plugins\ledwiz.cfg”
I have the file located as c:\emulators\mala\plugins\ledwiz.cfg.
I also copied it to c:\emulators\mala\ledwiz.cfg
I also copied it to c:\ c:\emulators\mala\plugins\ledwiz\ledwiz.cfg
It still has the error. If I click ok and load up mala and then exit mala and then restart it manually then the ledwiz works.
What have I done wrong? :dizzy:
Thanks
Diverdown

Cant help. :dunno
But I do have the same problem after I upgraded to the newest version

diverdown,
how did you tell mala to launch at windows start up? through the mala config or through a shortcut?
can you try this:
- create a shortcut to c:\emulators\mala\mala.exe
- make sure the start-in directory is: c:\emulators\mala\
- once you create the shortcut, see if it works.
tell us what happens...
Might be the way mala is telling windows to launch on startup.
-
i will give that a go. I am using mala 8 as I have had some bugs with 9
i was using the "start with windows" check box. but will try the start menu shortcut.
-
Yeah...
There was an updated version (probably not on the mala website) that addressed to 'working directory' bug when launching straight into MaLa..
I will search for that post:
here it is:
Enjoy :cheers:

now using the latest plugin file and the latest mala
- still no good. It was working with mala 7 ot 8 (without the ledwiz)
also - should I have anything showing in the Hardware tab - i only have the ledwiz so I assume not. The plugin shows and the leds light up properly....... but i cant find any options to play leds at random during screen saver etc...

I think there is a missunderstanding here.
1) This plug-in update is to fix the problem with the led-wiz plug-in not finding the ledwiz cfg file when you boot staright into mala on windows start... Nothing to do with the screensaver.
2) Plug-In options (like the led-wiz) You need to run the Configuration program that is supplied with it. MaLa config does not have options for Plug-ins
-
Thanks that did the trick / installed that patch and all is good
:applaud:
-
sorry.
the plugin update fixed the start not finding ledwiz issue thanks
now all I cant do is see images in screensaver. The screen flashes at correct interval to be showing a snap file but the image does not actually show.
