dukeofarcadia Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I have bsnes set up like thisbsnes.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"But what happens in gameex is it just opens up to the bsnes menuwithout the rom starting.. and it's not fullscreen.I had this problem with a playstation emulator andadding that -no gui thing helped.. but it doesn't here.So obviously my goal is to get it to load right to myrom in fullscreen.I know (show desktop) must be true.. so I've ruled that outAny ideas?(P.S if any of you haven't tried bsnes.. it is impossible to go backafter having used it..)

Adultery Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 How can I make bsnes always start in fullscreen mode? - set settings.startFullScreen to true in bsnes.cfg.Link here. PS: Doing this should make you not need to enable "Show Desktop" either, but don't quote me on that..:EDIT:. Nevermind, it does indeed need to be set to true, and your command line doesn't match mine either:bsnes-performance.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukeofarcadia Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 When I match my command to yours it now immediately exitsme out to the gameex menu.What is bsnes-performance.exewhere is it located I don't seem to have it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Maybe I'm on an older version? There's two builds (or was). One for accuracy and one for performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukeofarcadia Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 This topic might be informative but I couldn't find any of the dll files they were talkingabout to rename them. So I'm still confused.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nullPointer Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 When I match my command to yours it now immediately exitsme out to the gameex menu.What is bsnes-performance.exewhere is it located I don't seem to have it..This will depend on what version of bsnes you’re using (i.e. the version number). I recently made the jump from 0.73 (or whichever the last QT build was) to 0.84 which is currently the most recent build. If you don’t see bsnes-performance.exe in your bsnes emulator directory then that command won’t work for you. I believe the separate ‘core’ executables have been phased out in more recent builds of bsnes. Now you choose the applicable core in the emulator settings rather than running a whole separate executable.I’m away from my GameEx machine(s) right now but I believe my bsnes command looks like the first command you posted.bsnes.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"But here’s the important part: the most recent builds of bsnes no longer support zipped roms. This leaves you with two options: unzip all your roms, or set the ‘Zip/7-Zip/GoodMerge’ setting to true in the Setup Wizard (registered feature). I think that should get you going on the right track.Interestingly enough I also had some ‘focus’ issues with bsnes. If I had any other open windows bsnes would open behind them (regardless of the ‘Show Desktop’ setting). In order to resolve this I wrote a small script to force bsnes into focus. If this turns out to be the case for you I can post that script when I get home later.Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukeofarcadia Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 Thanks for your info nullpointer.. unfortunately the zip related stuff is not relevantto my problem.. my files were already all unzipped and in the bsnes format beforeI made this post.When I had my command like you dobsnes.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"the bsnes interface would open.. but the rom would not load..meaning I would have to first click file and then load cartridge toget the rom playing.. of course the whole fun of gameex is itloads right to your rom.. and that's not what's happening.Maybe there is one certain little thing your doing that I'm not..I hope we can figure out what it is..

fRequEnCy Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 What version of bsnes are you using? This will be helpful in troubleshooting as mentioned that different builds will work differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullPointer Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Hrmpf. Yeah it's probably something with the command line then. I'll take a look at my config when I get home, if someone doesn't respond in the meantime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fRequEnCy Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 bsnes 0.84 it is the latest version.Give me a moment and I'll take a look.Edit:This worked for me!bsnes.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"As mentioned, the files need to be unzipped but as you state, they already are. So there must be another issue. What is the file extension of your roms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fRequEnCy Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 A map file would serve no purpose here unless you wanted to filter out certain roms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fRequEnCy Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 You have one too many quotes in your command-line.Change the following:bsnes.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]""to:bsnes.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"This issue was resolved in chat! It was because of the extra quotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
