[RESOLVED]GameEX re-instal bug

[massop]

O.k.

I had to re-install windows on my gamebox.

The emulators and assets was on drive E: but in the instal it changed to D:

so..

I setup gameEX on it again by doing a "find and replace" in GameEX.ini finding E: and replacing with D:

Now this worked as all the games are listed again and all the emus work. I have 1 MAJOR issue and I cant seem to figure it out.

Any EMU that required the config to call for an xpadder profile fails because I get the

"Windows cannot find 'xpadder.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again" 

mesaage

the thing is when I test the varios .bat commands outside gameex it works fine (and so it should, it was working before the re-instal)

I did not re-apply my GameEX reg key as I am gonna give this box to my bro but I am sure being unregistered is not the issue here.

Any help would be much appreciated.

runitbat

D:
CD "D:\Games\emulated\sega saturn\SSF_012_beta"
cmd /c "D:\Games\Ultils\xpadder\xpadderSSF.bat"
SSF.exe
start "" "D:\Games\emulated\sega saturn\SSF_012_beta\deamon tools and xpadder exit.bat"

Where are you pointing to xpadder? In the bat file? In the config? Just make sure you adjust where xpadder is located where ever you're calling it. Maybe post your bat file or emulator config where this is occurring so that we can troubleshoot.

As you can see in the launch before line I have it pointing to this .bat

@echo off

D:
cd games\Ultils\xpadder\
start "" xpadder.exe "SSF P1" "SSF P2" /M

@echo on

Running this bat outside of game EX works correctly.

I tried deleting the cache files from gameex/data just incase there was some kind of glitch there but to no avail.

It seems like something may be remembering the old path but this is not reflected in the runitgame.bat or log file, or maybe not. I am totally lost on this one, all that has changed since yesterday is the gameEX instalation and paths

Regards

[fRequEnCy]

Well the log won't give use much detail in this case since you're running a batch file and it doesn't read the output of that file. Is that a direct cut from the bat file or did you manually type that in the forums? Reason I ask is the misspell of "Ultils". I also notice that you use different methods of starting the batch files ("cmd /c" & "start """). That could also be an issue. If you want real-time support then we can set a time to meet in chat to troubleshoot as it would be faster.

[massop]

Yeah thanks mate that would be awesome, Ill be in the chat channel from now for about 5 hours so I am sure ill catch you.

And ye those files were a copy/paste job

[massop]

I found the issue.

in my bat files i called the location of file and executed it like this

D:
cd games\Ultils\xpadder\
start "" xpadder.exe "SSF P1" "SSF P2" /M

Now this worked perfectly until the re-instal, no idea why it no longer works.

Anyway I played around with the .bat commands and now I finally have it working using..

cd /D D:\games\Ultils\xpadder\
start "" xpadder.exe "SSF P1" "SSF P2" /M

So sussed it, it was a weird windows bug who knows,

Even though I fixed it I would like to know why it stopped working.
