MAMEWah 1.62b10 and mame v.108

(1/2) > >>

toasty:
Having some issues running mame v.108 from Mamewah -- it will start to launch a game, the dosbox will flash, and then it will go back to the game selection screen. 

Here's my mamewah log:

anyone have any thoughts?  I know I've had this happen before and it was an easy fix, but I'm just missing it for some reason.

Thanks much!

toasty:
Oh, and for what it's worth, the romset I'm using is for .105, and I'm just recently upgrading MAME to .108. That's not the problem, is it?

trcroyle:
Switch {nosafelaunch} to {safelaunch}

toasty:
thanks, but that didn't fix it.  Anyone have any other thoughts?  I'm at my wit's end...

MKChamp:
That could easily be caused by a bad game rom...MAME won't load it...goes back to MAMEWAH. Try it with a different game/games...
If SOME of them load, then you know it's your rom set...
