3 Unresolved Windows Issues
« on: June 22, 2017, 11:30:29 PM »
1) Attact Mode loses focus on return from Mame.
I have spent countless hours troubleshooting this problem, and have been unsuccessful. This is a deal breaker for me and if I can't resolve it I will have to go back to Hyperspin :(
I've tried everything from fullscreen, fill screen, window mode, matching exit key in EMU with AM, nothing works.

2) DOS window cannot be suppressed when Attract Mode is used as a windows shell replacement.
I've tried setting up a batch file shortcut, having my windows shell call it, and setting the shortcut to start minimized. I have hide_console set to yes. Nothing works.

3) Working Directory is not being adhered to when launching MAME. If I manually launch MAME, I can save controller configuration and game settings. If I launch via Attract Mode, nothing is saved.


Does anyone have a shell replaced Windows machine working with any of these issues not present?
