Emulators / Help with MAME CD+floppy i dont find in anywere... please...
« on: August 20, 2023, 04:09:28 AM »
i use this: mame fmtmarty -cdrom 38man -skip_gameinfo

LOAD GAME OK, but in game the game needs the disk/floppy inserted (boot disk/floppy) and i dont know how i put this in code for LOAD CD and the boot disk togetter

2
With this .bat:

mame fmnew7 -skip_gameinfo -autoboot_command "load\n" -autoboot_delay 4 backgamm -uimodekey F2

I open the game XXXX after that I click on F2 and it (MAME) autoloads(PLAY) the cassette(tape) then just hold the insert for a few seconds and it accelerates the tape(PLAY) until the end and after that the game was loaded then I need to type RUN and press ENTER on the keyboard.. only then the game opens and is ready to be played!!!  ;D

Manually after opening the .bat, I need to MANUALLY click on F2 and then click and HOLD the Insert key and after finishing the reading type RUN and press enter MANUALLY...

Question is... how do I automate this in .bat? Because I get it in .bat I will transfer the modifying code to use in attractmode. or can you automate these commands directly in attractmode  :-\?

General / Help this code works? i try but not sucess!!
« on: March 27, 2023, 01:20:44 PM »
I tried to create a simple and elegant layout to experiment with. This layout displays a background image and a list of available games on the main screen. When selecting a game, a menu should appear with the options "Play", "Manual" and "Video".

But do I think something is missing, or is the code completely wrong?

Code: [Select]
// Configurações
local bg = fe.add_artwork("backdrop", fe.add_image(bg_image)) // nome da imagem de fundo
local font_name = "Roboto Regular" // nome da fonte
local font_size = 20 // tamanho da fonte
local title_offset_y = 80 // distância do título em relação ao topo
local item_height = 40 // altura de cada item da lista
local item_spacing = 10 // espaçamento entre os itens da lista
local menu_options = [    ["Jogar", "emulator", "[name]"],
    ["Manual", "exec", "[rompath]/manual.pdf"],
    ["Vídeo", "exec", "[rompath]/video.mp4"]
]

// Imagem de fundo
local bg = fe.add_artwork("backdrop", bg_image)
bg.preserve_aspect_ratio = true
bg.trigger = Transition.EndNavigation
bg.post_trigger = Transition.ToNewVideo

// Título
local title = fe.add_text("[Title]", 0, title_offset_y, fe.layout.width, font_size*2, font_name, font_size*2, 0xffffffff, Effect.Fade)
title.word_wrap = true
title.align = Align.Center
title.trigger = Transition.EndNavigation
title.post_trigger = Transition.ToNewVideo

// Lista de jogos
local list = fe.add_list("romlist", 0, title_offset_y + title.height + item_spacing, fe.layout.width, fe.layout.height - (title_offset_y + title.height + item_spacing), font_name, font_size, 0xffffffff, Effect.Fade)
list.spacing = item_spacing
list.trigger = Transition.EndNavigation
list.post_trigger = Transition.ToNewVideo

// Ações
list.on_change = function( selected_item ) {
    title.set_text( selected_item.parent.get_name( selected_item ) )
}

list.on_select = function( selected_item ) {
    local sel = fe.do_menu(menu_options, "Menu")
    if (sel == -1) fe.exit()
    fe.do_action(sel)
}

« on: February 16, 2022, 02:51:53 PM »
Please friends, I wanted to know why this game (otomedius)does not open in AM... I already put the correct args (I think they are correct) and nothing! If someone can test and tell me where the error is please...

i use this args:

Code: [Select]
# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.6.1
#
executable           cmd
args                 /c "[romfilename]"
rompath              M:\Emulators\E-Amusement\Otomedius\
romext               .bat
system               Konami eAmusement
info_source          thegamesdb.net

and change for .EXE

Code: [Select]
# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.6.1
#
executable           cmd
args                 /c "[romfilename]"
rompath              M:\Emulators\E-Amusement\Otomedius\
romext               .exe
system               Konami eAmusement
info_source          thegamesdb.net

Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YwbN9d1gL05xIkM_p_Q9BJkANo2lAKVL/view?usp=sharing

Inside the file there are 2 game launchers:
otomedius_gamesmame.bat
otomedius_gamesmame.exe
Both work perfectly outside of AM!

The launchers have 2 commands inside:
Open e-amuemu.exe and then after 1 second open Game Loader All RH.exe

Can anyone help please?
