Mamewah troubles (Sorry minwah!)

<< < (2/3) > >>

Zakk:
Latest trouble, mame 110      Have they changed something?  I'm starting with a 100% fresh install, since I can't shake the troubles I'm having in the previous threads.  System files installed, paths (seemingly) alright, but this error is all I get:

This is day 3 trying to figure out what's going on.  I'd hate to give up on mamewah, as it took me so long to figure out in the first place.  Any ideas?

jcrouse:
Try deleting (or moving to a temp folder) the files in your MameWAH/Files folder and give it another go. You WILL need to recreate your game lists.

Zakk:
Nope, wiped it, but no good. (same error)

After a bit of thought, I think I'll just switch to MaLa.  Looks pretty good, and I -literally- had to drive 8 (!!!) hours to pick up a machine at a cottage after mamewah deleted or reset a few config files (it's done it on my home cab too).  I like to be loyal, but maybe it's just time to mosey on.

Thanks for the effort!!!!!
 :cheers:

jcrouse:
If your considering moving to MaLa also check out AtomicFE. I have been playing with both of the lately and they are both very nice and the support here by the authors seems very good.

Just my 2 cents,
John

Zakk:
Cool!  Will do.  I've spent about 1/2 hour on Mala, and it -seems- quite user friendly (although a "fullscreen" setting would be nice).  I'll download Atomic and try it...I think I tried it quite some time ago, and picked Mamewah over it, but I might be thinking of another one.  My small brain is, unfortunately, feeble.
