i know i know... yet another zinc thred!

[Nologic]

Is there no simplified way to get this running in Game Ex? without a bunch of wrappers and the like and extra applications?

I'm not sure if you're meaning to piss in my coffee or not...I'm always up for simplified, hence why I asked about the CHD's...but fucking with me is just bound to piss me off.

I rewrote my prior wrapper\loader for the simple reason of making it easy for others to use...not because it didn't work.

I'll double check WB and the CHD's...as those are the only reason why Xpadder is used at all...you better not be yanking my chain...

Well I got courious too.

This is what I saw in the winterblast read me.

v1.6

- support for new ZiNc version

v1.5

- fixed problem with passing full path config file to zinc

- added some more error check

- now avoid to read unused joysticks

- some clean-up

- added 2 options in general section (output and noerror, see controller.cfg)

Since v 1.2 (i guess)

- temporary removed netplay with kaillera (not matter because it didn't worked)

- added per player options allowing to use multimedia joysticks (instead of DX)

useful for psx controllers and so ...

See controller.cfg for config infos.

The config is not friendly, i don't have the time.

You must have directx 5 or higher.

No I am not trying to piss you off. You know what forget I asked about it at all. I can continue to run zinc when I have the need for it using Dafreaks GUI. the last thing I want to do is piss someone off. When I have time I am gonna start taking classes to write programs to do stuff I want done. Until then I will work with what is out there.

I didn't say it didn't work at all after all the testimonials I've read. As Far as CHD games goes the show up as rom not found but they still launch & play (I don't care for the games tho). I was just trying to get Zinc to do the seamless thing like model 2 does.

I'll double check WB and the CHD's...as those are the only reason why Xpadder is used at all...you better not be yanking my chain...

Yanking your chain about what? I'm a lil confused

NoLogic: Do you really think DJ Infinity is fucking with you or yanking your chain? I thought he was just asking a question!

DJ Infinity: If there was an easier way to do it I'm sure NoLogic would have figured it out by now. So if there is a wrapper then it's usually because it's necessary.

Well I'm not seeing WB play nice with the CHD's...this is using dafreaks gui...still causing zinc to crash.

Okay lets be clear on things...the CHD games are:

Wedding Rhapsody

Hyper Athlete

Powerful Baseball 96

Susume!Taisen Puzzle-Drama

HK-

no not exactly but it rubbed me the wrong way all the same.

However I can confirm DJ's claim that WB will work with Keyboard encoders...but I can not for the life of me get WB to play nice with the chds.

When you use da freaks frontend you have to have evrything setup correctly or zinc will crash (I got it by trial & error) as far as the chd games go I have tried Powerful Baseball 96 & Hyper Athlete and for some reason they show up as rom not availible but they launch & play fine. Once again I apologize I did not mean to make anyone mad. I was just trying to get the seamless thing going. I thought it would be something simple like what I did to get Daphne the way I wanted by adding stuff to the command line.

[Nologic]

Zinc is just one of those sour subjects for me...well getting that way.

I can launch the chd games fine...until WB is enabled then things goto hell.

If you have any of the chd games working share your configs and I'll take a look and see if I can find out whats going wrong on my end.

I did some checking. WB does crash Zinc when doing the CHD games. I Never really looked into it because I don't care for any of those. Sorry for the confusion. I didn't have it checked when running

[Nologic]

Thats okay and sorry for being a prick...I just got a lot on my mind right now...and the stakes are high and I have to win. Anyways you where right about the keyboard encoders so thanks for that bit of enlightenment...as that simplifies things a lot for others...just leaves the chd's as a pain in the ass for all.

[DJ Infinity]

Hmm you know what I think I'm going to uncheck for support for Zinc in Game Ex. I don't know what the problems are for the games In Mame (as I haven't really tried them) If it is a speed issue I am going to run them in Mame. If Blitz is fairly playable with sound these should be no problem if it is a speed issue. Once again my apologies for ticking you off. I'll try not to do that again.

[Nologic]

nah don't worry about whether or not you'll piss me off...as long as there isn't intent.

Things just came across wrong which is easy to do in a text based world.

Your input about WB working with keyboard encoders was very worth while.
