Multi-Screen Games
#270161 - 12/03/11 09:42 PM


I didn't get any response in the MAMEUI forum, so I thought I'd try here:

When I launch multi-screen games with artwork (e.g. Cyberball, Subs) with the MAMEUI64 GUI, no problem. If I launch the same games in MAME64 from the command line, they crash. Any ideas?

What version of MAME is each one?




RELAX and just have fun. Remember, it's all about the games.

Are both ini files the same?

Both are using the same .ini's, as far as I can tell. (See attached)

if you keep both exe's in the same folder, then the one mame.ini will control both. Then there should be no excuse for one working differently from the other.

Therein lies my dilemma. Both executables are in the same folder using the same .cfg and .ini files. One thing I did notice is that there is only one screen rotation switch in the .ini file but you can (and I do) have separate rotations for each screen in the .cfg file. ??? Meanwhile, I notice that I don't have this problem if I roll MAME64.EXE back to 0.143, so I guess I'll have to stick with that for the affected games for now.
