Z26 Question
xer0s:
Well if I understand you correctly, I need to enter this into the command prompt:
z26 -v8 "C:\MyDirectory\Path\Atari2600\Adventure.bin"
But I want to go into Mamewah and select a game off the list and have it boot up and go into fullscreen. If I just enter the above, then I'm going straight through Z26 and not going through Mamewah, which is what I want to do. I need to configure it so that it will automatically do fullscreen when I choose a game in Mamewah. I hope this makes sense.

No, I was just giving you an example of how to start an Atari2600 game with z26 with the fullscreen option you might want.
In MameWah, you would need to edit the INI file which is related to the z25 emulator. I have not used MameWah in a couple of years, but I think you need to set the "emulator_commandline" value to the following:
[emurootpath]\myz26path\z26.exe -v8 "[rompath]\[name].[romext]"{nodosbox}{safelaunch}
However, to get MameWah set up correctly you really should repost another question to the forum with the Subject text as "Need help configuring MameWah for z26 fullscreen" and see what people say. I am not sure a lot of MameWah users are looking at this thread ..... or at least they are not chiming in with suggestions.
Now, I could be wrong, but it does not sound like you have ever used MameWah successfully before .... is this correct? If so, you should know that MameWah is pretty much meant for people who like to configure stuff manually. I am not one of those people so I prefer to use a frontend with a nice GUI interface. Basically, I do not like creating/editting INI files by hand. As a result, I use MALA since it is a snap to configure. Let me know if you ar dead set on using MameWah or whether you would like help with MALA. If MameWah is a must, then I would suggest reposting another thread. If MALA is worth a try, we can try to get it working for you.

Well, I've been using Mamewah on my arcade for the past couple of years, but its only been halfway setup (which is why I'm trying to setup the other half right now). But maybe it would be worth trying out this MALA. I'll look into it and let you know what I think...

MALA is quite easy to set up. Of course I gave you the link to my "How To" guide ...... which is where the z26 stuff I mentioned to you came from.
