Can Mamewah launch joy2key?? (SOLVED)
gonzo90017:
I wan't to do this because i'm using gamepads via usb. I can put both mamewah and joytokey in the startup folder. But I want to run mamewah as shell. So joy2key won't work this way. If I make it launch with a game i'll have more than one running in the background when I change games right?

in the new beta of mamewah, there is an option to run an app at startup, i don't think it was in 1.61, but all you need to do is create a batch file, that will run joy2key first, then run mamewah.
Something like:
--- Code: ---start /wait c:\emu\joy2key\joy2key.exe
c:\emu\mamewah\mamewah.exe
--- End code ---
Then just run the batch file from your startup.

Didn't want to upgrade but I guess that means I have no choice.

what's wrong with using the .bat file, that will run it for you when you start mamewah, which is all you need.
