Mamehooker : Problem of brightness
« on: May 24, 2020, 04:39:12 am »
Hello,
I'm using mamehooker and a pacled64 to control lights with mame.
But when I start the computer, the led brightness is not set at the same level for all leds. I have to set all to 255 in the pacled software to have the same brightness.
How Can i store this setting  ?  I have to set that in the pacled (I did not find how to) or manage with a script with mamehooker ?

Thank you :)

Hello,
I edit my first post because the problem do not come from the Pacled64.
I explain : When I set the leds to 255 with the pacled software , it works , all the leds are lit with full brightness.
I close mame , unplug the pacled64 : No needs to set again.
But when I quit Mamehooker , I have to set again to 255.
I have no script with mamehooker , it's an vanilla installation.
Where can this come from ?

Thank you :)

Add in the commands to set the brightness to 255 with the mamehookerstart entry in your default.ini.  There is nothing wrong with the operation of mamehooker... it's just a passthrough to the dlls.
