Loaders Request Thread

[Nologic]

Okay I'm looking for input from those that know emulation far better than myself to come forward with lists & links to emulators that worth while to use, that currently would require a loader in order to function correctly in GameEx.

There is no promise that I'll create the requested loader...but hey its far more likely to happen if myself and others are aware of the emulator & the need for it.

sPSXe anyone?

I never could figure that one out and I'd like to use that as well as pSX for making AVI snaps.

[Nologic]

you mean ePSXe? If not could you please post a link.

I actually got ePSXe working fine via using the Delta loader in conjunction with my loader...tho the whole thing is probably up for a rethink as it seemed like a lot of effort up front.

I have epsxe using .bat files just fine! But if you have a long list of isos that would be time consuming to create a bat file for each.

I will post my bat file config along with the settings I use in epsxe this may help get the ball rolling!

Zinc is great but GAMEEX already has a config for it altough I cannot use Zinc in conjunction with MAME. So again Im forced to use bat files and setup under Emulators section.

Nulldc--already has a wrapper

MisFit MAME- is command line but again falls under the fact that only one mame can be used.

Well generating batch files, is fairly straight forward, tho I do tend to avoid batch scripts.

I'm actually looking at generating a full battery of delta configs predefined with known working settings...then creating a batch process to ether link to an existing iso or delete the config since no iso is present...this could take some time for the end user...but far less than other wise.

My Zinc loader could certainly be redone...as I'd like to make use of Xpadder than JoyToKey.

Well if MisFit has CLI it really doesn't need a loader...just a INI and probably a Map file...I've never toyed with it but I'll take a look as thats probably some thing that can be done in short order.

*Update*

Added Misfit Mame Map file 0.113.6

That was fast! If there is anything I can do to help let me know.

[Nologic]

Sure make the INI needed.

Should be the same as whats used in Mame.

Slap me for this one... how about the CD-I EMU

http://www.cdiemu.org/

with xpadder support

[Nologic]

Now you sure you want to be slapped? hehe that could leave a mark for a while.

Okay I'll look into getting some thing put together for that.

[eproxy]

Thanks for the consideration

Hello Nologic, any update on the cdi emu loader?

Or someone to help me make cdiemu open in fullscreen using above command lines?

[bkenobi]

NoLogic doesn't frequent the board any more. I think you will have to find a loader from someone else or make your own as these files are not available any more.
