AM Quits on MAME start.
« on: May 17, 2023, 04:08:32 PM »
Mac Pro 2012, AM 2.6.1, SDL MAME .204 (so far seems the sweet spot for this machine.)

I had it working perfectly last night after it was locking up on ROM load and I changed whatever this thread told me to do: http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=3489.0

I added a few more ROMS and they all work when I run MAME from the terminal.  When I load up AM and select a game it gets through the machine loading, and then quite back to the AM frontend instead of actually running the game. I'm not sure what's going on but I'm SO CLOSE to getting this going, what did I miss - it feels like something is sending an escape command to the program but I'm not?

I was running MAME in windowed mode out of the terminal to troubleshoot using command line arguments and now it's also stuck in windowed mode - and AM is also trying to run MAME windowed, could that be it?


Thanks!
