Game logs are empty Why?

[vargas14617]

I can go in cmd line and type Mame64.exe dkong-v>dkong.txt and the log is empty  tried Mame64.exe -v dkong>dkong.txt  still empty

what am I doing wrong

I can type mame64.exe dkong and the game launches so I know it is working.

Make sure that your current directory is your mame directory (cd c:\mame or wherever)
Run it first without the >dkong.txt and confirm that you see the verbose output. Then add the >dkong.txt and run it again.

After, do a DIR dkong.txt to see the size of the dkong.txt file.

. I see it open a window runs dome script then closes very fast. Still no info in long

I've always used it like this:
Mame64 dkong -v > dkong.txt

Tried your way too and it worked, so not sure what's going on.

Mame doesn't open another window for its text output. Are you sure you've opened a command prompt, that stays open, like Win+R, Open: CMD, ENTER?

I see a new window and script running but the txt is empty

You likely need spaces between your parameters.
