LOL. No prob. Well don't get why Tom's works and ours don't! LOL. Maybe Tom has a better version that he doesn't release to us. But he did post an executable to try so he's looking into it.

Is it crashing there? Cuz mine doesn't crash. It just tries to load the file and then goes back to GameEx. Don't see how that log is complete since it stops right there and doesn't show GameEx exiting. When posting long codes instead of using the code tag use the codebox. So [ codebox ] ..... [ /codebox ]. No spaces between the brackets. Just had to type that way so it wouldn't actually create a code box.

Hey chriss! Can we see your log so we can see if it's the same issue?

Well I like that answer. Should be the answer to lots of questions here in the forums.

Just tested and not working on this end either. Was workin before. But don't know when it stopped workin since don't use GameEx for karaoke.

I haven't used AHK in years but here is what you would need to map the keys you're after. Enter::(The key you want) Esc::(The key you want) The the right of the :: delimiter it will remap to the keys you're looking for. Look here to get an idea.

Only way that I'm aware of is with hard links. Search the forums. Bkenobi has discussed this before. Maybe he'll jump in. I've used hard links before with emulators that require their roms to be in specific folders and I don't want them there as I have them stored on another drive.

Are you sure you're using this for Sega-Naomi Arcade games and not DreamCast games? I ask this cuz you posted that you selected a CDI image which won't work for this emulator. CDI is for only used for DC. And On Board display will NOT handle Naomi or DC. Needs to have a card that supports Shader Model 2... hence DX9 being a requirement. Always test an emulator first to assure it's working. Then run from commandline if you can. If not then that's where these wrappers come in. Glad to know it wasn't the wrapper.

Post your config. There's no reason it should be causing errors or it shouldn't work unless you're using it wrong. All it does is loads the game based off the information from what you have put into the command-line. Also what do you have as the working directory? Working directory should be pointed to where your emulator is!

Nice Tom!

What are the details of the error so I can fix? LOL.

Actually it's a link to my personal account so links won't expire. I only put there as a temp fix till my wiki is ready for release. Once released, all my works will be hosted there. Just didn't wanna load my upload usage here at GameEx with stuff since my wiki will be a place to go for this stuff. I guess I could release soon but will be lacking in areas I'm wanting. Just got the time now to work on this stuff cuz been busy. So again this is only temporary.

Ahhhh. You're good for more than just that. LOL. . Hey I don't appreciate you guys hijacking my thread!

Well it depends on how the wrapper was written. Usually a wrapper would replace the emulator on the command-line since the wrapper is taking care of all the settings needed for the emulator to run. So usually the command-line would be as follows: wrapper.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]" Again depends on how the author has written the wrapper. But just to give ya an idea.

LMAO. I bet you can. Why don't I just create a wrapper for all your needs and setup your whole system? . If a wrapper is needed for an emulator then it will be created and posted at my wiki. Just have been busy with other projects so not ready for release quite yet.

LOL. I still appreciate ya Brian!

Tell us what you know!

LOL. Like that eh?

Yes Tom was in the following section: [MOUSEMAPPING] MouseMappingEnabled=True Changed to false and now all is well. Thanks for the response Tom! I couldn't figure it out. Don't know how that got changed on my config though.

Bump! Still no reply or comments? I've updated to the newest GameEx version and am still experiencing in some emulators. Not a big deal to me really since using a gamepad but gets annoying when using my x-arcade sometimes. And I've ran from run last game and it doesn't do it so must be GameEx related.

Great job Flash! I still think you should let us see the other side of the loft.
