Mamewah, launching emulators twice

(1/2) > >>

Exarch:
afternoon all,

i'm running into a little bug with Mamewah,

i'll do my best to describe it,

i have set up an ini for zsnes, set up and built the rom list without any trouble,

when i run a game Mamewah will launch ZSNES but no rom will be loaded.

then i exit ZSNES and find ZSNES has launched with the ROM running.

has anybody hit this problem before?

i'm also running into it with Daphnie, but i figure this is a related issue to the ini file for both emulators.

any help would be appreciated,

cheers

Post your ini file.
You are using the latest version 1.62b13a right?

Exarch:
it's probably an older version i will have to check when i get home,

but i did not change it as i had heaps of stuff working on it, including Zinc :P

that thing was a royal PAIN!

i'll post it all up tonight

Evening all,

below is the ini file for Zsnes, i recon the problem is here

### External Application Settings ###
ipc_file_or_path                         
app_1_executable                         
app_1_commandline_format     

as it may be reading the app executable, then the command line???

perhaps this means it's triggering the emulator, then launching the emulator again with the command line for the ROM ??? just a guess though

Why are you're roms not zipped?

Anyways your problem is under ### Execution Settings ### it should look like this:

### Execution Settings ###
emulator_executable                       C:\VideoGames\ZsnesD\Zsnesw.exe
commandline_format                        "[rompath]\[name].[romext]"{dosbox}{safelaunch}
alt_commandline_format_1                  [name]{autodosbox}{nosafelaunch}
alt_commandline_format_2                  [name]{autodosbox}{nosafelaunch}
game_specific_config_path                 


Try it and let me know if it worked.
