MAMEWah - generating games list...
Sinner:
I'm having a problem generating lists in MAMEWah...when I choose the generate list option, the screen just jumps like the PC did something, and it still shows a blank list...
If I choose just the romfolder option, then I get the files listed, but I would like to have proper names...I looked in the DOC, but they didn't really give an explanaition of what each option is (IE: romfolder_vs_listxml, etc)
Here's what I have in my INI file...any help will be greatly appreciated...
### 0001.ini (mamewah v1.61) ###
emulator_title Mame
### List Generation Settings ###
rom_path c:\mame\roms
rom_extension zip
dat_file
nms_file
catver_ini_file c:\mame\catver.ini
list_generation_method rom_folder_vs_listxml
### Execution Settings ###
emulator_executable c:\mame\mame.exe
commandline_format [name]{autodosbox}{nosafelaunch}
alt_commandline_format_1 [name]{autodosbox}{nosafelaunch}
alt_commandline_format_2 [name]{autodosbox}{nosafelaunch}
game_specific_config_path
kelemvor:
Usually that means it isn't seeing your rom files. Could check the mam.ini file as wll and make sure the ROMs path is rightin there. But otherwise I'm not sure. but that's the problem I had is my ROMs path was mistyped.

Well, I've played around with it, and I can't get it to work...MAMEWah sees the roms, if I tell it just to do so, but when I try and use romfolder_vs_listxml, it doesn't do anything, when I generate a list...
I'm really at a loss of what to do...they first time I set it up, it seemed to work so easily, but my HD died, and now trying to set it up again, isn't working out at all...
