massop Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Sorry to bring back an old topic but I have something to add to this as I have the same issue (would prefer to stay away from mess as I always have issues with that.)The reason this does not work from command line is because there is a direct input error that occurs when run like this, see below prosystem.log file[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][ERROR] Direct sound has not been initialized.[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][ERROR] Direct draw has not been initialized.[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][ERROR] Direct draw offscreen surface is invalid.[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][INFO ] Opening cartridge file C:\Users\Ultima\AppData\Local\Temp\Unzipped7-Zip\3D Asteroids (1987) (Atari) (Prototype).a78[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][INFO ] It is not a valid zip file: C:\Users\Ultima\AppData\Local\Temp\Unzipped7-Zip\3D Asteroids (1987) (Atari) (Prototype).a78[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][INFO ] Accessing database ProSystem.dat[Sat Oct 06 18:20:20 2012][ERROR] Direct sound has not been initialized.[Sat Oct 06 18:20:20 2012][ERROR] Direct input has not been initialized.If anyone has a fix for this it would be great,Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 This was split from the original 2011 thread found here. Please provide more info. Is this occurring only from ProSystem outside of GameEx or within? If within, can you provide the requisite GameEx log and configuration files? Thanks!

massop Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 Thanks,The controls work perfect outside game ex but when its launched from game ex the only buttons that work is the directional controls.I use xpadder in conjunction with this so the keys are not mapped directly to my controller.gameex.ini attachedlog23:36:48.0 06/10/2012: Opening Configuration File23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: GameEx: Version 12.85: Starting Log23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Operating System Platform: Win32NT23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Operating System Name: Windows 723:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Operating System Version: 6.1.760123:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Aero running23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Initializing Vista/Windows 7 volume control23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Getting CPU and RAM info23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Intel® Core™ i7 CPU 870 @ 2.93GHz, 8151MB23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: 2.93Ghz - 8 Cores or CPU's23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Running Randomize()23:36:48.1 06/10/2012: Loading PlugIns23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Checking for applications to Launch On Startup23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Running Misc startup tasks23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Setting Menu types23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Getting Configuration Values23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Using Theme: Dark Champion - Carbon 720p23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Checking for alternate Image Directory for Theme: Dark Champion - Carbon 720p23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Launching HideOS.exe23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Initialising Video/MNG DLL's23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: GameEx will check for media insertion (may affect performance)23:36:48.2 06/10/2012: Hiding Taskbar23:36:48.3 06/10/2012: Is Media Center running?23:36:48.3 06/10/2012: Checking/Creating LCD Registry values23:36:48.3 06/10/2012: Check Media Center Exit/Start Mode23:36:48.3 06/10/2012: Media Center Mode 223:36:48.3 06/10/2012: Video previews on.

nullPointer Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Hi massopI note that you're launching Xpadder as an 'Also Launch' rather than a 'Launch Before' parameter. Note that this can have some adverse effects depending on the application being launched (you'll notice in your log that your batch script is not running until after the emulator has already been launched). I would guess that's why your batch script is not showing up in your runitgame.bat. You might try entering the batch script as a Launch Before parameter and see how that goes.Also this line makes it look like you're not loading any one particular xpadder profile:23:38:04.9 06/10/2012: Also Launching: "D:\Games\Ultils\xpadder\xpadder.bat"Is that by design? (i.e do you utilize only one profile that's managed through the batch file?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massop Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 Ah I should have shown whats in that .bat.I use this .bat in conjunction with any emu that needs keyboard mapped to pad, so xpadder.bat is just there to run and load my default profile, see below@echo offcd /D D:\games\Ultils\xpadder\start "" xpadder.exe "xbox360 P1" "xbox360 P2" /M@echo onI just tried moving the "also launch" string to launch before but the emu fails to load with this.This rings a bell actually as to why I never used launch before because I could not get my .bat files working in it.

nullPointer Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 The reason this does not work from command line is because there is a direct input error that occurs when run like this, see below prosystem.log file[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][ERROR] Direct sound has not been initialized.[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][ERROR] Direct draw has not been initialized.[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][ERROR] Direct draw offscreen surface is invalid.[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][INFO ] Opening cartridge file C:\Users\Ultima\AppData\Local\Temp\Unzipped7-Zip\3D Asteroids (1987) (Atari) (Prototype).a78[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][INFO ] It is not a valid zip file: C:\Users\Ultima\AppData\Local\Temp\Unzipped7-Zip\3D Asteroids (1987) (Atari) (Prototype).a78[Sat Oct 06 18:20:02 2012][INFO ] Accessing database ProSystem.dat[Sat Oct 06 18:20:20 2012][ERROR] Direct sound has not been initialized.[Sat Oct 06 18:20:20 2012][ERROR] Direct input has not been initialized.Hi massop,You mentioned that ProSystem is working fine outside of GameEx. Do the above errors listed above appear in the ProSystem log when you launch it from outside of GameEx? What about when you launch it outside of GameEx from the command line?

massop Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 hmmm,The keys do not work when launching via command line outside gameex.What does this mean? this emu will never work with controllers via command line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullPointer Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Hi massopI'm not sure, but that shouldn't be the case? ProSystem supports DirectInput whereas those Xbox 360 controls only supprt XInput, but Xpadder is designed to alleviate that very concern. When you run from the command line, does Xpadder start up OK, and is it registering input? If that all looks good, does ProSystem still have the correct controller mapping when launched in this fashion?I just noticed something else (possibly unrelated)emu_5_gamesin7zips=TrueProSystem supports zipped roms (.zip), although this certainly wouldn't apply to 7-zipped (.7z). What happens if you disable the above setting in GameEx, and attempt to run either a zipped rom (.zip), or an uncompressed rom (.a78)? This may or may not duplicate the above command line test depending on your previous test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massop Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 Thanks for the feedback.Xpadder does run from command line and I can see the inputs working while this is on.The odd thing is if I go to the prosystem menu (after launching from command line) the config is correct but only the directional controls work.Its as if its blocking those keys.I ran the emu without 7z both in and outside game ex and the issue remains the same 1 thing I have not tried yet but will test later is running in compatability mode. I will update as soon as I get back from work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Did a little "googling" and came up with this. It appears that ProSystem will not work with a 64-bit OS. So even in compatibility mode, it may not work. Keeping fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massop Posted October 9, 2012 Author Share Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) Compatability mode = No apples,So I guess this emulator is dead in the water then,Looks like ill have to get on mess with this.Thanks for the help anyway.
