I wanted to know why this game (otomedius)does not open in AM
« 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?

I would say to anyone to be warned first.

I downloaded this, unpacked and my Windows anti virus was going crazy saying about trojan virus. It was not just one trojan it was a whole host of them on the same file.

Conteban.A!ml
Tiggre!plock

to name but two

I tried loading the thing and would not load at all, it would just white screen for ages and then I had to do a ctrl alt delete just to get rid of the thing.

So if anyone is going to try it, be forwarned.

Regards

Mark

Firstly, get a proper dump of the game (HINT: can be found on emuline (that's as much as I will tell you))
Secondly, set up Game Loader All RH properly (you need ALL three exe files to do it properly)
Third, setup controls via ttx_config2.0.exe
Lastly, launch the game using Game Loader All RH.exe

Game works fine IF it has been set up properly.

That dump is full of junk to be honest.
Get a clean dump and start from scratch, save yourself the headache.

The dump I showed in my screenshot was also from emuline, grabbed today before I responded.

e-amuemu.exe isn't part of the game.

Also, please do not PM me asking for links, they won't be provided.

Trust me, not everything is a false positive. I had to format my PC about a month ago now due to a virus taking over my PC, it would not allow me into the control panel etc etc, hell I could not even change screen savers if I wanted to.

You do have hackers and phreakers that release games, that can access your PC if they so wish, some games are not even working games, just ways to get into your PC.

You put up a fake file, even just a so called crack for Sim City as an example, the crack does not work on the game, so you think stupid crack, does not even work and you have just given access to your PC away.

I do not bother with running virus checkers any more, as a waste of time. I have run Norton and it found no viruses, I than run AVG and it found viruses. You also have in the wild viruses, which are put on your PC via trojans, that virus checkers do not know about, and they can activate any time the hacker has remote access.

I have twenty years PC experience, both building and running my own IT business, teaching IT at one stage for my level 3 in IT. I have also done a bit of H&P in the past, all be it a script kiddie, so I know how most of it works, or used to, things have moved on since I last dabbled.

So don't believe that these are just false positives, as one day one of them will take over your PC.

Emulation is safe, warez not so. I do not even trust that Teknoparrot as that throws up a lot of warnings as well.

Now I was really scared Mark, I said it was fake because everyone always told me and the emulation guys use Game Loader All RH.exe and yours archives a lot and everyone say the same... But I'll keep an eye on it.. for the tip...

Yeah, my friend i will go back to try the cleaner dump, but i am immensely grateful for the help and friend apologies for bothering in pm, thanks and sorry again for bothering you, and thank you by way of trying to help.

Another hint, look for the thread that says [DUMPS] in the title then you will be in the right place.

I have attached a bat that can be used, just edit set "GAMEPATH=\Otomedius\" to match your path.

A basic cfg file has the following:

Code: [Select]
executable CMD
args /C "[romfilename]"
rompath $PROGDIR\path_to_your_game_etc
romext .bat

Obviously add the remainder as you need it.
