Atari Jaguar

[hansolo77]

Hey all, I've been working on GoodMerging all my ROMS and have hit a stump. I was able to play Atari Jaguar games with Project Tempest before merging. Now it doesn't work. The emulator will load but it's not receiving the ROM file. If I go to "open" it goes into the correct folder (ie, the Unzipped-7zips folder). So why isn't it getting the file? Any ideas?

are you doing this through gameex? if so check your extension filter and rom dir because it should show files

i dont think Project Tempest can open archive files i have jaguar working all my roms are ext *.jag and they work fine. Check there not archive and the extension is either *.bin *.rom *.jag

although i have changed to MESS and i dont have any problems, worth a look

hope this helps

It shouldn't matter because GameEx extracts the file before it loads it into the emulator. I don't use that emulator so I unfortunately can't assist you.. Sorry.

What version of Project Tempest are you using?

What is the command you are using to lauch the games?

That would be cool if I can get Project Tempest working too

Well what's going on right now, I have the rom filter blank. That has always worked for me. The files are *.7z. When going through GameEx, it lists the games. I then enter a game, and GameEx extracts them to a folder within the ROMS folder (called something like "unzipped-7zips"). After you pick the the version you want to play, it attaches that new ROMPATH and ROMFILE to the batch, and off it goes. This works on everything I have GoodMerged so far. Only with this one, it goes through and launches the emulator, but the emulator isn't loading the ROM. I did a debug run, and it IS sending the correct information. So I'm really stumped. After the emulator loads, I can go up to FILE and load up a rom. Interestingly, the path it opens up first IS the "unzipped-7zip" folder. So wierd.

Currently, I'm running version 0.95. There are a few newer versions out, but I read on this forum that this is the most recent version that still supports command line. Anything newer doesn't.

The command line I'm using is:

PT.exe "[ROMPath]\[RomFile]"

Here is my config (however it doesn't work obviously):

i would try unzipping a few roms and using the rom filter to *.jag etc and see if that works

ok i come to the conclusion that you cant use a command line to load the rom's up you cant use open with in windows so im pritty sure there is no command line

I have the same problem, my file extensions are *.jag and you select a rom in gameex and it opens up the emulator but just sits their waiting for you to open up the game, everything works ok, just wont auto play the game??

were any solutions found?
