--- heyhey! okey! ill try disabeling zinc then Thankz again headakze, your the man! PS chankast_Launch 1.5 Is really easy and smooth! you should get a prize or something!

Moast racinggames in mame really suck. i can get cruzin usa to run at about 20fps with autoframeskip n stuff on. No matter what kind of processor you have. but if you must run it in mame run with -noafs and -high priority but it wont run good. ive heard it takes a 6ghz processor to run cruzin in normal speed. mame moastly uses processor so eaven your 1900xtx in crossfire or dual 7900 wont do any good. try the N64 version instead! (cruzin) not as cool thoough. or chek if some of the games are ported to dreamcast for better emulation that way.

--- thx again! this is unbelivable :D

Hi guys. Im a beginner and im sorry to have spammed this board lately. This is my final question then i got everything else runnin perfectly. ----------------- ----------------- ----------------- Mame32 plays alot of the zinc games fine (monster farm jump) and so on. eaven though it runs better in zinc emulator i am not feeling up for it to install the zinc emulator in gameex for just playing 2 or 3 games that are so so. mame32 runs these games fine, is there anyway for gameex to run these zinc games through mam32 instead of through zinc emulator (that requires installation) ? a related topic for this is if gameex can run neogeo games using mame32 instead of installing a neogeo emulator? (mame32 runs these games fine too) best regards! ----------------- ----------------- -----------------

YES! now i got 2 games working,,, so now i think ive figured it all out how to add on more games l8ter,, its just how you said headakez. The only problem i encoutnered is with "elsemi input interface" when nothing works from chanka_launch. !!!BUT that dont do anything as darkmans plugin is really good!!!! so thanx again headakex! and sorry for beeing a noob, mabypost this helps other beginners trying to setup the chankast in Gamex Thx thx thx

headakze plz help with one little thing more if you have the time.. i can only get soul calibur working (se the post above your latest) thats my entire ini file. as you se i put [zer-mvsc] directly after , (the image mounts but wont start) is there something wrong with my ini file? (if i can get 2 games to work i understand the proceedure to max) but now i can only get one game to work. i figure it must be something wrong i have done with the ini file, if you would have a look? (se above your latest post) plz thx (ok i just read your post above) i will try removing it! thx (it works from normal chankast so it must work with this wrapper to with the right settings then) l8ter 1000 thx

------------- With only one game down in the ini file it works perfectly! but how about if you want two games or more? now i also maby would like Marv vs cap to work, do i put it in the same ini file? after soul calibur? or what? i tryed like this (in the ini file) (zer-mvc2) is the name of the cdi game. it wont launch (but soul calibur will launch) i also enabeled capcomhack as you can see. now it mounts the Disc but it wont play the game. (it plays the game directly from chankast, so what is wrong with my ini file)? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Name of Chankast executable (must be in same dir as chankast_launch.exe) ChankastExe=Chankast_alpha_25.exe # Set default drive letter Drive=F: # Video Mode (640x480|800x600|1024x768|1280x1024) Screen=640x480 # Full Screen Mode Fullscreen=True # Force Full Screen Mode (for version < 25) # Can be used with the -screen switch to force a resolution #Forcefull=True # Which program to mount the ISO with (DaemonTools|Alcohol120) MountTool=DaemonTools # Delay in seconds to wait after mounting ISO Delay=5 # Unmount ISO when finished Unmount=True # Define ascii key for exit (27 == ESC key) Exit=27 # Set region of DC flash file (jap|usa|euro) #Region=usa # Process priority (Normal|AboveNormal) #Priority=Normal # Show stats such as FPS ShowStats=False [DaemonTools] Exe=C:\Program\DAEMON Tools\daemon.exe Device=0 [soul calibur (U)] CPU=120 ZWrite=False ZWriteAlpha=False CapcomHack=False CableType=NTSC [zer-mvc2] CPU=120 ZWrite=False ZWriteAlpha=False CapcomHack=True CableType=NTSC

--------------- wooohooo i dont know BUT ITS WORKING! Chankast_LaunCH maker! YOU ARE THE GOD! (next to tom speirs) ! to the one having trouble in the post above me, (it dosnt work outside gameex) but in gameex it WORKS (and thats the point right) the little command at the bottom of ini file i think makes the game launch and mount that image just type exactly as he said and it will work in gameex. px the [soul calibur] (down in the ini file) must match the romfiles name (in my case [soul calibur (U)] (without file extention) again,, HEADAKZE, if there is anything i can do for you just tell me! thx alot!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- hey man! i know you worked hard on this. im certain it works now (otherwise ive dl the darkman plugin) but im a bit of a noob. hmm can you (or anyone else) just give an really step by step easy explination how to do this? i figure that much that theres no doing a copy of chankast launch and putting all the commands in there. instead its the use of an ini file? well i name my ini file as my rom that is soul calibur (U) -------------> Soul calibur (U).ini is now the filename. in that file i write (fron top down) exaclty like this [soul Calibur] Chankast_alpha_25.exe CPU=120 ZWrite=False ZWriteAlpha=False CapcomHack=False CableType=NTSC ROMPath=D:\Dreamcast Drive=F: Screen=640x480 Fullscreen=True Forcefull=True MountTool=DaemonTools Delay=5 Unmount=True Exit=27 Region=usa Priority=Normal ShowStats=False Exe=C:\Program\DAEMON Tools\daemon.exe Device=0 and then save this as soul calibur (U).ini and i just doubleclick on chankastlaunch to get this inifile working? no it dosnt work and i guess it wont work either. where does it say mount soulcalibur? and how is the ini file connected to chankast launcH? . i think im a bit of rightnow. sorry for being a total noob i wont give up on thisone though.

--------------- Wow this IS my lucky day! ill try it out now and see how it goes :D:D:D thx alot! ill keep you posted!

Lets say i have the psx emulator or some other emulator not pre preset in gameex. i layed it into new emulator (emulator 11) or something. How do i get gameex to show a picture of the actual console? (the pre installed snes, n64 pictures show) but i dont know in what folder i should place my own made console picture? can it be in jpg or must it be in png? im talking about that screen when im browsing through my emulators before going in to respective rom sections (i get all rom pictures to show but not the emulator picture itself) thanx if anyone can help.

-- Hello! Very nice to speak to the original programmer. Youre really great man! Thanks for taking the time. i really really appriciate that man. If it will work with the "elsemi interface" i would be very very gratefull! meanwhile i will try howards wrapper and see how that goes. (probably wont work though) (the xxx input interface really suxx) When can we expect an update to chankast launch and where do we find it? (i found it via a thread in this forum. )

anyone knows how to get chankast_launch.exe to start with input interface from elsmi? (otherwise i cant configure my controlls for the gamepad)

---- okey ive not tryed it yet. BUT i got it working with chankast launch ,but only with "input interface xxxx" , if i use the input interface with elsmi it wont start. the input interface xxxx is bad for my controllers (hard to configure controllers). anyone knows how to get chankast launch to start with input interface from elsmi?

hey guys. i can get everything else to work in gameex but not chankast i have read every faq and still cant get it to work. i have chankast 2.5 (latest) and chankast_launch.exe i can get games running from the emulator but not from chankast_launch.exe what happens when i run chankast launch.exe with the given command from the forum on this paige i only get deamontools to mount and chankast to launch the game. What happens then is that nothing happens. Chankast wont run it, i manually have to press run in chankast interface to begin the game. my chankast launch copy´s command line looks like this D:\dreamcast\chankast_launch.exe -screen 640x480 -fullscreen -cpu 108 -showstats -daemon "C:\Program\DAEMON tools\daemon.exe" 0 "D:\Dreamcast\Soul Calibur (U).cdi" What hapens is that chankast is launched, Soul calibur (game) is mounted into "F" (device 0) that chankast uses. but then it just freezes. when i press run with the mouse it starts. how is this? Why is this? Why do i have to press run in chainkast for it to launch? can anyone help? i would be forever thankfull.
