Bug: Exiting Daphne under Win98se

[Asure]

Someone else posted the below:

The 6.32 release of gameex i have installed on win 98 have a problem with Daphne. Daphne's games run correctly under gameex but when i exit any emulated lasergame, gameex crash (i see the win desktop and when i press ctrl+alt+canc i can see gameex run in background) For any other thing, gameex run correctly.

What can i do? mellow.gif

I have the same problem, but it did work in some previous versions.. Can't say what version that was, because i updated to 6.36..

I too get the desktop with some icons on exiting daphne , and need to use alt-f4 to get control back,

or sometimes i can use alt-tab to get back into gameex.

I think it's because of the command used to launch daphne:

Running: command.com /c D: D:\roms\daphne\Daphne.exe lair vldp -fullscreen -x 640 -y 480 -nohwaccel -framefile d:\roms\daphne\mpeg\lair\lair.txt

Now, funny thing is, sometimes, it does seem to exit correctly.. but doesn't kill daphne, and when i run another lasergame, it's slowed down and has crappy video playback, since there is now two daphne processes running.

Anyway, since Win98 needs to use start /wait for most other things i guess we would need an option 'use start /wait' or similar in the Daphne menu. Can this be added ? Thanks!
