Title: CPWizard no preview
Post by: ncflagg on July 14, 2008, 10:30:32 pm

I scanned my control panel and saved it with Photoshop. CPWizard displays a blank grid where the background should be. Any ideas?

Have you copied the image into the CPWizard\Media folder?

Cool. That took care of that.

I can't, however, see any games in my list to preview the panel. If I go to View/Preview the list is blank. I'm using Mame .84 (and noname mame .83). Does it support either of these versions?

I'm guessing those versions were pre-xml as far as being able to output game information in xml format. Xml is what CPW expects. Isn't there a utility that will convert the old format to xml?
