Daphne Help

[jncferranti]

I am returning to GameEx after a few years away since I had to sell my old arcade machine when I moved and am in the processing of building a new one.  My dilemma is it has changed so much in the last 5 years, its a great product, but I am having difficulty getting Daphne configured properly.  I got MAME and Sega Genesis to work fine just struggling with Daphne.  When I run Daphne in Daphne Loader all games run just fine.  In GameEx it tells me "no items found".  Here is my command line from Daphne Loader: 

 

daphne.exe lair vldp -framefile C:\arcade\Daphne\framefile\Lair.txt -blank_searches -min_seek_delay 1000 -seek_frames_per_ms 20 -homedir C:\Arcade\Daphne -fastboot -bank 0 11111001 -bank 1 00100111 -noserversend -sound_buffer 4096 -fullscreen -x 640 -y 480

 

Here is a screen shot of my Daphne settings in GameEx setup wizard. 

 

 

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Hi, what may actually be of more help is a copy of your gameex.ini and log.txt files. Click on the GameEx How to ask for help link in my signature below and you will find instructions on how to locate and provide these files for our review. Thanks!

Draco, thanks for responding.  I figured it out, In my menu editor I typed in "Daphne" instead of selecting it from the list so Gameex wasn't actually trying to run Daphne when I was clicking on it.  I got it all working now, thanks again.
