Hi
It's been a long time since I configured my cab and I have some trouble now to configure Mamewah for another project.
I've gathered a bunch of old dos games, configured them with dosbox. As i could'nt find a frontend i liked for dosbox, i created a START.BAT file in each game folder. This BAT file call dosbox with the game.
But i want to use only relative PATH ! (This will be on an external HDD and so the drive letter can change)
So to call the game with mamewah i made a DOS.bat like this
CD DOS
cd %1
call start.bat
Now I'm trying to configure that in mamewah...
Here's what i've done ...
### DOS.ini (mamewah v1.63) ###
emulator_title OLD DOS GAMES
### List Generation Settings ###
rom_path ..\..\GAMES\DOS
rom_extension
dat_file
nms_file
catver_ini_file
list_generation_method rom_folder
### Execution Settings ###
pre_emulator_app_commandlines
emulator_commandline ..\..\DOS.BAT "[name]"{dosbox}{safelaunch}
post_emulator_app_commandlines
general_app_commandlines
### Artwork Settings ###
artwork_image_paths ..\..\GAMES\DOSsnap
movie_preview_path ..\..\GAMES\DOSvideo
movie_artwork_no 1
enable_fuzzy_search 1
history_dat_file
history_dat_artwork_no 1
### Screen-Saver Settings ###
enable_music_in_screensaver 1
select_random_game 0
saver_type slideshow
movie_path
movie_fullscreen 1
quit_delay 0
saver_commandline
### Additional Settings ###
music_path
lcd_display_file_path
description_display [description]{scroll}
### Settings used by MAMEWAH ###
current_list 0
the "..\..\" trick worked for everything but the command line !!! (artwork are ok, list generate correctly)
For the commandline a get this error :
20/01/2009 0:42:01 Error: 5 Invalid procedure call or argument in MsgExecCmd
It work perfectly if i put this commanline
emulator_commandline G:\GAMES\DOS.BAT "[name]"{nodosbox}{nosafelaunch}
But as I said before i want relative path ...
HELP PLEASE :-)
