Unknown options generated in rom INI files
#388217 - 10/18/20 09:54 AM


MAMEUI64 .225
when ever i change something on a game in the UI
it puts options in the rom's ini file that fail when launched from commandline or from a frontend.

Inside the UI it ignores those things apparently, but if asked to launch an affected rom from outside the UI
you get this



and every rom that does that, it's ini has an images section referring to harddisk1 and cdrom1 etc

Any way to have it either ignore that when launched externally, or stop putting it in when editing settings?

I mean, it's non fatal, you hit ok and it goes, but the kids got nothing to hit ok with, i only give them an arcade control box

It also likes to do this as well

well, that is the funny thing

I started with no INI's for the games
these options reappear when i edit one in the GUI
and that is when using the .225 mameui64.

Any suggestions as to where it would be pulling those from
and reinserting them?

Well, it is a clean install of .225
but i deleted the ini\mame.ini
there was no other mame.ini

still does it

Im just editing out the unwanted stuff.
Not sure where it is pulling that from.

Mame have anything in registry it would pull from?

Did you also clear the inis in the \presets folder?
MameUI doesn't use the registry anymore.
