Xtro Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Hi, I was using Ootake in a previous version 2.80 I think and have my PC Engine ISOs installed in the install dir of Ootake via the fullinstall method (ripping in CUE+WAV), this worked very well launching from commandline "ootake.exe "Rompath\Rom.cue" but now with the newest versions of Ootake it doesn't load, it just says couldn't load rom.cue and then mainboard init error. I know I could mount the isos with DT but as it launched them previously, maybe there is a new swith or something to configure to run them again. Thanks for your help.

Adultery Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I don't use this emulator, but it's probably this command line: ootake.exe "[RomPath]\[RomFile]" If you need additional assistance, please post your GameEx.ini and log file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtro Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 Thanks, the cue file support is broken from Ootake version 2.81 I tried from dos commandline and what version 2.80 launches 2.81 and upwards just doesn't. I also tried using the /CD switch but it keeps telling me the arguments are too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedDog Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 @Xtro Just be aware that GameEx launching process is based on an emulator's ability to launch via a dos command and parameters. Mounting an image is (generally) the easy part. Sadly, if there is no command line functionality for launching Ootake, you may have to do some of the launching manually. You may want to do some posting in forums that are reporting the newest version. Maybe someone can provide some command-line info there. There does not appear to be much documentation on Ootake and what little that is avaialble is in Japanese, so not much help there; but the author does appear to be updating at a pretty fast pace (3 updates in the last 30 days or so from what I can tell), so if there is no command-line functionality now, perhaps it will be added in the future.

Xtro Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 @RedDog You are right, I didn't find any Ootake forum to ask for this as it seems more japanese speaking and thought more people should use it this way. I am back to version 2.80 that works very well indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedDog Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 @Xtro Probably the best way to go actually...until it develops further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
