Im thinking about installing instant shell to setup a shell but I was just wondering, If i need to gain access to the os to put in more files etc is this possible??

Thanks for the help and advice

Hi Folks, I'm just wondering if anyone knows what specs are needed to run a Dreamcast and PS2 emulator. I'm looking for the Ram, CPU and if I'd need a graphics card etc

I like the sound of the instant sheller but will I be able to edit or add files to the hard drive etc?

I was just wondering if it was possible to auto launch GameEx when I boot up my pc which is running Vista?

I found a framefile and modified it to view the mpeg file. Alls well now. Thanks to everyone who helped

I had a feeling you would say that! Can anyone point me in the right direction to one large .m2v file for Lair??

I've changed the txt file to .\ 15 dls.vob.m2v The error log is now: --DAPHNE version 0.99.7 --Command line is: Daphne.exe lair vldp -fullscreen -x 640 -y 480 -nohwaccel -framefile E:\Downloads\daphne\mpeg\Lair\list.txt --CPU : GenuineIntel 2650 MHz || Mem : 2048 megs --OS : Windows NT/2000 || Video : NVIDIA GeForce 6500 Setting screen width to 640 Setting screen height to 480 Set 640x480 at 32 bpp with flags: 80000000 Initializing sound system ...

Im having a problem getting dragons Lair to run Getting the Error Log --DAPHNE version 0.99.7 --Command line is: Daphne.exe lair vldp -fullscreen -x 640 -y 480 -nohwaccel -framefile E:\Downloads\daphne\mpeg\Lair\list.txt --CPU : GenuineIntel 2650 MHz || Mem : 2048 megs --OS : Windows NT/2000 || Video : NVIDIA GeForce 6500 Setting screen width to 640 Setting screen height to 480 Set 640x480 at 32 bpp with flags: 80000000 Initializing sound system ...

The Lair folder contains files dls00.vob.m2v to dls30.vob.m2v list.txt looks like .\ dls15.vob.m2v

What file does dragons lair start on and I'll make the file myself? What other games were in this series Space Ace and ........ (Pm me about the whereabouts of the mpegs for thses games)

Speaking of which has antone got a .txt Framefile for Dragons Lair. Cant seem to find one amongst my files

All the framefiles WERE in the same folder so I cant figure out what the problem was it just wouldnt run from Daphne directly but since I configured it with GameEx everything works great. It must have been a commandline issue or an issue with ME vs the Command line!! LOL

Thats Cliff Hanger working now!! THANKS GUYS

Ok Ive changecd the space in Cliff Hanger and also the .txt file as suggested but im now getting the error --DAPHNE version 0.99.7 --Command line is: Daphne.exe cliff vldp -fullscreen -x 640 -y 480 -nohwaccel -framefile E:\Downloads\daphne\mpeg\CliffHanger\cliff.txt --CPU : GenuineIntel 2650 MHz || Mem : 2048 megs --OS : Windows NT/2000 || Video : NVIDIA GeForce 6500 Setting screen width to 640 Setting screen height to 480 Set 640x480 at 32 bpp with flags: 80000000 Initializing sound system ...

The line E:\Downloads\daphne\mpeg\cliff.txt was incorrect so ive changed it to E:\Downloads\daphne\mpeg\Cliff Hanger\cliff.txt but im now getting the error log below --DAPHNE version 0.99.7 --Command line is: Daphne.exe cliff vldp -fullscreen -x 640 -y 480 -nohwaccel -framefile E:\Downloads\daphne\mpeg\Cliff Hanger\cliff.txt --CPU : GenuineIntel 2700 MHz || Mem : 2048 megs --OS : Windows NT/2000 || Video : NVIDIA GeForce 6500 Setting screen width to 640 Setting screen height to 480 Unknown command line parameter: Hanger\cliff.txt Bad command line or initialization problem (see daphne_log.txt for details). To run DAPHNE, you must specify which game to run and which laserdisc player you are using. For example, try 'daphne lair noldp' to run Dragon's Lair in testing mode. The video files for Cliff Hanger are in E:\Downloads\daphne\mpeg\Cliff Hanger\ and in this folder ive Cliff.m2v, Cliff.ogg & Cliff.txt
