MAME Artwork

(1/2) > >>

I'm sure I'm doing something basically wrong - but can't work out what - I can't get MAME to run Artwork. All the files are zipped in the relevant file, and my config settings are as I think they should be - but nothing is showing up - MAME is OK otherwise. Could someone just walk me through what needs to be set in order for the Artwork to appear?

I'm running MAME through MAMEWAH.

I would suggest going into MAMEwah, and go to Emulator settings, look for the Artwork_Image_#1 and type in the path there.  Mamewah will clear out the path if it is incorrect auto-magically so you know if you have a path problem.

Minwah:
Could you just clarify if you are trying to get the artwork to display in MAME or MAMEWAH?

I thought you meant MAME, in which case open your mame.ini file and look at the bottom for these options:

### Mame CORE misc options ###
artwork                 1
use_backdrops           1
use_overlays            1
use_bezels              1
artwork_crop            0
artwork_resolution      0

If you mean MAMEWAH, Metimbo is right, but images must be unzipped also :)

Minwah,
Sorry, yes I was talking about artwork in MAME (The ingame backdrops etc).
Thanks for the paste of MAME ini file - thats exactly what my file looks like. Artwork is zipped in the mame\artwork file, yet it isn't showing up when I launch a game.
Not sure if its related, but all my roms are located outside of MAME in c:\Allroms (Obviously, I direct MAMEWAH to that file).
I'm stumped!
