los abrazos rotos Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Can anyone tell me how to make gameex launch straight into a specific mame game on startup? Also, is it possible to set a specific mame game as attract mode?cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celly Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Not sure on launching a specific game on start up but as for the attract mode, you can set a specific game as a favorite. Lets say, Mortal Kombat II. In MAME menu, select MKII and then hit Add To Favorites. Then in the Setup Wizard, you can change the setting to display favorites in attract mode. The more you add to favorites, the more it shows. This stands for emulators also. Hope that helps a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Sounds like you are trying to totally emulate a single program Arcade Cab to give the appearance of the original attract mode and start up as close as possible. If so, I would think you would be better off running some batch files on startup of your PC to directly load MAME and use a MAME screensaver (and not attract mode from GameEx). Kinda defeats the purpose of having a Front End IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
