1. Run GameEx Setup Wizard 2. Click Next and select Custom mode 3. Check Video/Movie Settings 4. Click Next 5. Now enter data next to Startup Video/Dir:

Yup. Just following you around since you're lost.

Very nice Chazz!

I have it in my system. It's found in the GameEx\DATA\EMULATORS directory and it's name is [ARCADE] MAME.mdb

MESS works like MAME. 1. Press the TAB key 2. Select Input (general) 3. Select User Interface 4. Select UI Cancel 5. Press Enter and map keys As far as loading roms. Different emulators require different settings to run from command-line. These settings can be found in the help file. You can also import settings from the gameex install (they're already setup for you). Or you can always ask us here what we recommend. Also check out this pinned topic.

Yeah I've tested that also. It seems to stay fullscreen on every load. I tested many many times just to verify so I knew what I needed to script for the wrapper. I'll release soon. Just working on some other stuff. It's pretty much done and working well.

Good deal! Have fun!

Follow these steps: 1. Right Click on File 2. Select Properties 3. Where it says Open With (where you changed to GameEx) click the Change button 4. If Registry Editor is not found then Click on Browse button 5. Browse to your WINDOWS directory and select regedit.exe and click open 6. Click ok 7. Now double click on file and it will ask you if you want to add to registry and click Yes Or yes you can just manually put into the registry.

Here's my command-line: mess.exe vectrex -cart "[ROMPath]\[RomFile]" -view "[ROM]" -joy -now -nonewui

Ahhh was GameEx that was messing you up. Yeah, debug mode is useful to see the command-line settings being used before it's actually ran to find where the problems lie. In your case your problem was the debug feature.

What's in your command-line? Should be as follows: mess.exe a5200 -cart "[ROMPath]\[RomFile]" -joy -now -nonewui

Quick question Tom! Is there a hi res image of the logo you use for your avatar?

Very creative considering you used batch files. Good work!

Very nice! Thanks Tom!

That's possible but then would have to set a global key to escape the emulator like {ESC} and make sure GameEx sends {ESC} to exit the emulator. But in doing this it doesn't really make it cab-friendly. Would still see the windows for a brief second even if their hidden. But would make it work and we already have some emulators that do do that already (show that you're running in a windows environment), so wouldn't really matter.

Or you could go that way!

Doesn't take much more typing skills to add the word box to your code. The forum is designed just fine. It's user error!

Looks like closemul would do this but to automate all theses tasks you would have to use lots of ascii codes and it would also make the command-line look ugly for an emulator like this. I think a script is the way to go. Would make things much more clean. It's a simple script and can be done in just a few minutes but I would need someone to contact me to explain the details of how things load in order me to create it and it work properly. Tempest! You should use this code [codebox]long_code_here = ';[/codebox] instead of the standard code so that your post doesn't take up the whole screen.

Well then the best thing would be to manipulate the nullDC.cfg within the wrapper so that the settings are set every time. Even after a crash. Out of curiosity, what are the details of the crash? What exactly happens?

Well looks like manipulating the nullDC.cfg would be out of the question then. If that could be done then a wrapper could be made to do all the settings for you and then run but looks like going through the gui is the only way. Was hoping we could have gone the first route. I haven't had much experience with regular nullDC crashing but have read that users were having problems with their config getting reset back to default. That's why I asked about nullDC NAOMI.

Oh can you? Let me jump right on that. LOL. Actually would only take a few minutes to script up. I already have some of the code done when I was testing but can't do much without games. But there's 2 different ways go about it and that's why I'm curious when it's crashing.

Alt F is what would bring up the file. Then would have to select Load. Doin that gets ugly not sure how it works in AHK but in AI I would use the command as it does all that more clean. Brian! When you change the settings in the ini and it crashes, are you changing the ini and then running with basic command-line parameters or you using ones like nullDC to invoke the settings from the command-line (i.e. nullDC-Naomi_1.0.3_mmu.exe -config ImageReader:DefaultImage="[ROMPath]\[RomFile]")??

No. Only one script would be needed. How to go about making it would depend on the way the games are (i.e. in same folder, subfolders, if their compressed, not compressed, etc. I don't really care to make it cuz don't have the games to test it on but will do it when I get some. Or can always ask questions on how to code it and some of us can help. I know there's a few of us here that know how to script wrappers using AutoHotKey and AutoIt. Also a few knowledgeable programmers here to give some pointers. I did look into it when Brian mentioned it and it seems fairly easy to code up but again can't test without the games.

According to Brian, It doesn't support command-line options so you would have to script something up.

I'm guessing this is what it does. LOL.
