Hi. Its not too difficuct to set up daphne in Gameex if you already know how to run daphne. The most important thing I can think of is to not overlook the daphne button in the config as this is what I did when I first tried to set it up (I tried to set it up as an emulator and couldn't get it to work) Daphne has its own special settings in the config, kind of like mame does. Here is my config, hope it helps.

# Daphne is a an arcade Laserdisc emulator, that allows playing of

# games such as Dragon's Lair and Space Ace.

# The following options enable GameEx to act as a Daphne front end

# and presents a list of Daphne games that can be selected from the Start

# Page. DaphnePath, and DapnheSnaps should contain the full path to where

# the Daphne ExE is located (path only), and the path to snaps to use.

# Daphne EXE is the daphne executable file (without the path).

# DaphneSnap is the location of Snap Images

# DapnheOptions are the global command line options applicable to all games.

# Set UseDapnhe to true to enable Daphne support in GameEx

Hi,

I've been struggling with Daphne for quite a while now, and this post really helped. The only thing I had to change (apart from the directories, obviously) was to put the path to the framefile in quotes, eg:

GameOptions_1 =-framefile "c:\daphne\framefile\dl_framefile.txt"

Dragon's Lair and Space Ace now run in GameEx perfectly: after all that, I didn't need to rip them from my 20th Anniversary DVD again at all: I just needed to read the command line to get the correct commands.

D'oh!

I'm glad it helped. Yes you will have to specify the correct framefile name in your setup but everything else is pretty straight forward.
