MAMEwah 1.63 not displaying snaps or marquees *FIX'D*
« on: November 25, 2008, 02:52:07 pm »
I've tried editing the ini file, with "auto" and with "c:\mame\snaps", but it still displays the default image. Any ideas?

I'm using art1 as the snaps and art2 for the marquees. Thanks in advance :)

So a leper walks into a bar and as he gets his beer, a finger falls off. The bartender who is serving him turns and pukes all over the place. The leper, feeling bad, says, "Was it my finger falling off?" The bartender turns to him and says, "No, it's the guy dipping chips into your back."

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Could you post your INI for us? You should have the folders listed in order separated by semi-colons.

ah! I'll do so when I get home ... I didn't try it with the semi-colons, but will give it a shot, and if no go, then post the .ini

Thanks  ;D

Yeah, just separate by a semi-colon and put each folder in the order of the artwork number in the layout.

 :laugh2: ... well folks, "SNAPS" != "SNAP"  :laugh2:

I had the target folder named wrong; also had a space between the semi-colon. All is well, and thanks again Ginsu Victim  :afro:
