Daphne Game Names in MAMEWah
« on: September 18, 2006, 06:16:25 pm »
Posted this over at the Daphne board, but thought I'd post it here as well in case anyone knew the answer:

Running Daphne via MAMEWah.  The game list as it appears in MAMEWah simply lists the names of the roms rather than the names of the games.  For example, rather than showing up as:

Dragon's Lair
Dragon's Lair 2
Space Ace

My game list reads:

ace
lair
lair2

Is there a way to change it such that MAMEWah will display the game name rather than the rom name?

you need to create a nsm file like the one below

Astron Belt|astron
Astron Belt (Pioneer)|astronp
Badlands|badlands
Bega's Battle|bega
Cliff Hanger|cliff
Cliff Hanger (Alt)|cliffalt
Cobra Command|cobraab
Cobra Command (M.A.C.H. 3 Hardware)|cobram3
Dragon's Lair (US Enhanced 1.1)|dle11
Dragon's Lair (US Enhanced 2.0)|dle20
Dragon's Lair|lair
Dragon's Lair 2: Timewarp|lair2
Esh's Aurunmilla|esh
Galaxy Ranger|galaxy
Goal To Go|gtg
Space Ace (US Enhanced 1)|sae
Space Ace|ace
Star Blazer|blazer
Super Don Quix-ote (Long)|sdq
Super Don Quix-ote (Short)|sdqshort
Thayer's Quest|tq
M.A.C.H. 3|mach3
Us vs Them|uvt
Interstellar Laser Fantasy|Interstellar
Laser Grand Prix|lgp

save this in a note pad file and then rename the file daphne.nms, then edit your mamewah ini file and under nms_file point to the location of your nms file. Eg


### List Generation Settings ###
rom_path                                  c:\daphne\framefile
rom_extension                             txt
dat_file                                 
nms_file                                  c:\daphne\daphne.nms
catver_ini_file                           
list_generation_method                    rom_folder

this is how i done it in mamewah 1.61
