Hi,
i have all three on CD-ROM and they all seem to play fine but i cannot load 1 and 3 through mamewah because of there little GUI box's saying 'install' 'uninstall' 'play' :(
the second one however doesn't have this and loads fine BUT for some reason even in windows on exit totaly frezes the PC with a lot of multicoloured lines like its gone out of sync and frozen but its at the moment connected to a flat panel VGA monitor !
im wondering if anyone has ever seen anything like this before and has and tips.... i think its not fully compatible with my graphics card because the opening credits with the 'sega' logo etc and like chopped up on a grid but once you get into the inner menus and game its absolutly perfect.
p.s if anyone needs to know how to run dos or windows games through mamewah i figured it out and can share the ini's etc ;D

Can you run the games with a command line that skips the little GUI boxes? If so just make a .cmd or .bat file to do so.
I actually do this for my Daphne games in Maximus Arcade so I can have several versions of the same game in the front end with different properties (limited vs. unlimited lives, F3 vs. Enhanced ROMs, etc.)
Also, these games may need to be run in Win95 or 98 compatibility mode.

here are my ini's for latest mamewah for all the HOTD games

Here's a loader I wrote for HOTD 3, it will load the game skipping the menu screen. You need to put it in the same folder as the executable and launch this instead.

Hi,
Thanks for all the help and support on this one !
thanks for the little launcher is there anything else i need to do to get it to run because i double click it and the screen goes blank and then it comes up no valid signal detected at the moment im using my LCD TV with VGA input to test the running of the games so i asume any high resolutions it cannot take... where exactly should it be put as theres a few different launchers in the installation area.
i tried mamewah with the setting stated in the INI (thanks rockmes) and the game as before plays but as soon as you hit escape and click yes i want to quit the attached picture happens ! and you have to shut down before you can see anything BUT the FE music is still playing as if nothings happened !
edit: headkaze your a gem !!! the launcher works a treat when the PC and games set to 800*600 thanks for the input ;D ;D ;D
P.S check out this awsome Uzi i think it would be brilliant for House Of The Dead 4 when ever it comes out on PC... is it coming out on PC ?

Do attachments get deleted after a while on the BYOAC forum or something? I could really use the HOTD3 loader and no luck with the attachment, I get a web "not found" error.
