Title: mamewah / pc games issue
Post by: akko on July 06, 2008, 07:25:06 am
Hey everyone, been tring to run a few pc games through mamewah setup, however i am not having any luck at all,  from what i can see i have it set up correctly, i have the shortcuts in a folder and they all run fine when double clicked, and they do show up in mamewah, however every time i hit "1" to start it they come up with random errors, like bejeweled 2 comes up with "FATAL ERROR.. Invalid command line param: C:\Arcade\pcgames\Bejeweled 2 Deluxe.lnk" or another example is postal 2 comes up with

"ReadFile beyond EOF 780+4/780

History: ULinkerLoad::Serialize <- FGenerationInfo<< <- FUnrealfileSummary<< <- LoadSummary <- ULinkerLoad::ULinkerLoad <- UObject::GetPackageLinker <- UObject::StaticLoadObject <- (Engine.Level None.MyLevel C:\Arcade\pcgames\Postal 2 Share The Pain.lnk) <- VerifyPackages <- UGameEngine::LoadMap <- LocalMapURL <- UGameEngine::Browse <- UGameEngine::Init <- InitEngine"

I haven't tried any other games as they all seem to be having issues, however maybe just the games?? any suggestions? I thought it would have been as simple as putting all the .lnk (shortcuts) in a folder and away it goes.

Im running windowsXP with service pack 3, and mamewah v1.63
Im using the .ini command from cpviewer - emulator_commandline                      PC "[rompath]\[name].[romext]"{dosbox}{safelaunch}

Any help or ideas would be great as i've been tring to fix this all day and its starting to bug me  :hissy:

Not sure what the problem is here, but try just using:

emulator_commandline PC
