Mame Gives No Logs, PlzHlp!
06/10/18 01:58 AM


Im using a batch file to run Mame0.198b
i intend to do all my options through batch file command line switches rather then an .ini for reasons ill explain later.

The problem im having is no log output. at all. anyplace, from anything i run through command line...

example
Code:

start "MAME.198b_x64" C:\Games\Emu\Arcade\Mame0.198b\mame64.exe -v -help > mameLog.txt

pause

the mame window appears for a fraction of a second, then vanishes. mameLog.txt is created. and is blank...

example
Code:

start C:\Games\Emu\Arcade\Mame0.198b\mame64.exe -v -oslog -log -debug > mameLog.txt

pause



does the same thing, but at-least i get a CMD-window for a moment, that shows the data output of what was going on.. yet when it closes theres still no log file :{

how do you make the logs appear?
i want a text file copy of -everything- the CMD window displays. i want error logs, and success logs and all that. What am i doing wrong? i cant see why a file doesn't run, if the window disappears as soon as it encounters an error and leaves no trail for me to trace!

please keep in mind. im running from a .bat and I'm not using a mame.ini. this is intentional, as what im setting up to work with will be running default installed mame through command line switches only, and will (i hope) operate stand alone even when i update Mame version numbers.
