Title: Model 2 Emulator Crashes when loading a game
Post by: starwarsfan54321 on October 26, 2017, 04:33:01 pm

It seems to crash with every rom when trying to load
-The rom directory is setup correctly
-The model2.zip is also in the rom folder
 It works on my other pc but not the one going into my arcade machine

The gpu is a radeon 7770, i'm using the crtemudriver it was not working before I installed that either.

Any help would be extremely welcome

Also using windows 7 if thats helpful

I use model 2 and 3 but am no expert.

Why do you have Model2.zip in your ROMS folder? I don't see why it would break it, but unless I'm unaware of something it doesn't need to be there.

I can suggest some more obvious things.

Maybe try to run as administrator?  :dunno

However you are launching it - is it possible some path needs to be changed when you copied it from your other machine?

I use Windows 7 professional. Sorry wish I could help more. Are you doing it from a command prompt or loading the ROM through the GUI?

To add to above is it the correct version for the machine?
I believe there is a 32 and a 64 bit version.

Look at the Model 2 guide stickied in the driving cab subforum.
(I would link, but it's a PITA on the phone)

There are some older directx runtimes required.  Links are in that thread.
You'd think having the newest direct x would cover you, but those older runtimes are still required.

Just wondering if you manage to fix this?

I'm having exactly the same issue.

System details:

Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
ATI 5450 (with dvi and displah port)
CRT emudriver 2.0

What I've found is the following:

When I use a DVI to HDMI cable connect to a HD LCD monitor, the model 2 emulator works every time.

The moment I swap to a dvi to vga adaptor to connect to a jpac, when I test the emulator, it always crashes (on both lcd and crt)

I've completed a fresh install and just installed crt emudriver and directx_Jun2010_redist.exe and the same issue...

Just wondering if you found a solution?

Cheers.

Try running it in windowed mode: your crash sounds resolution related to me...
