MameWAH with MESS and Coleco
« on: April 29, 2005, 06:14:16 pm »
Hello all
   First off I have looked for this and have had no luck finding the answer in the forum. Ok the question I am trying to run Colecovision through MameWAH with MESS, now it work and runs the games ok but I can not get the program to exit with the ESC key. I know you can edit in the GUI to make it work but it only works when you use the GUI to start the games not when you use the command line like MameWAH does. Does any one know the command to put in the ini file to allow the ESC key to work. And if you do know the command can you type it out for me as I should in the ini. 

Thanks for the help.

I am using
MameWAH v1.61
   MESS v0.95

Ok I just figured out my own answer to the question. Here is the code if some on ells is having the same problem, this will open the game with no info or disclaimers and with no GUI so you can use the ESC key to exit the game. And it only took me 9 hrs to figure it out. :P


### colecovision.ini (mamewah v1.61) ###

emulator_title
