Hi folks,

For the next release I'm hoping to include a load of templates for various emulators. SO... If you've got an emulator working under Wah!Cade can you post (in this thread please) the .ini file from

Code: Select all: ~/.wahcade/ini/<emu_name>.ini

Cheers,
Andy

Hi Andy,
here are my ini files for stella, snes9x and sdlmess which I use for various systems like nes, mastersystem, gamegear, colecovision, genesis, ...
Stella is started through a little script (stella.sh) which only changes the directory to the stella-rom-directory and executes stella.
I use a little script for sdlmess (messatscr.sh), which renames the screenshots taken by sdlmess to the name of the game and copies it into the correct directory. Maybe it's useful for someone.. I found it somewhere in the Internet but couldn't find it again since my laptop broke down and all my links are gone...
So here are the files. I hope they are useful..

I created a method that works with DosBox. This is what my dos layout looks like.

Here's the ini file:

Code: Select all: ### new_emulator.ini (wahcade v0.12) ### emulator_title DOS Games ### List Generation Settings ### rom_path /stor/dosbox/roms/ rom_extension dos dat_file nms_file catver_ini_file list_generation_method rom_folder ### Execution Settings ### emulator_executable /usr/bin/dosbox commandline_format "/stor/dosbox/games/[name]/start.bat" -conf ~/.dosbox_game.conf -exit alt_commandline_format_1 "/stor/dosbox/games/[name]/setup.bat" -conf ~/.dosbox_setup.conf -exit alt_commandline_format_2 game_specific_config_path ### Artwork Locations ### artwork_1_image_path /stor/dosbox/boxscan artwork_2_image_path /stor/dosbox/title artwork_3_image_path /stor/dosbox/snap artwork_4_image_path artwork_5_image_path artwork_6_image_path artwork_7_image_path artwork_8_image_path artwork_9_image_path artwork_10_image_path movie_preview_path movie_artwork_no 1 ### Screen-Saver Settings ### enable_music_in_screensaver 0 saver_type slideshow movie_path movie_fullscreen 1 quit_delay 30 wrapper_executable wrapper_commandline_format [name] scr_file ### External Application Settings ### ipc_file_or_path app_1_executable app_1_commandline_format app_2_executable app_2_commandline_format app_3_executable app_3_commandline_format auto_launch_apps ### Additional Settings ### music_path lcd_display_file_path lcd_fe_text ### Settings used by MAMEWAH ### current_list 0

What I did is place each game into it's individual folder in a games directory, then create matching dummy roms in my roms folder, making sure the rom name and the folder name are the same. I would type out the full name since the nms feature wasn't available then, but you could use short names now if you use an nms file.

Then in each game folder I would copy an existing start.bat file from the game or create a new one. I just made sure I had a start.bat and a setup.bet for my alternate command.

Finally I created two dosbox configurations, one for playing the game and the other for my alternate, which is used for game setup. Most setup programs are picky about the display so I tried to keep it simple.

This is great making Wah!Cade easy to use with so many emulators.

Now what we need to do is set up a repo that has packaged emultors that are known to work well with Wah!Cade so that users can grab from those and use Wah!Cade with fewer config issues.

My preferred version of SDLMAME is from Ludomatic (see post elsewhere in this forum). Here's the .ini file for it (I called it sdlmame_ludomatic.ini).

Here is my .ini file for the Stella Atari 2600 VCS Emulator in full screen. I need to figure out how to map the keys to my ipac joystick so this might get revised in the near future. Stella uses things like ctl+Q to exit rather than just esc.

Balki, please note that the Stella.ini file still says genesis.ini at the comment on the top of the code-block. I assume that this is probably reporting the wrong ini comment and version in most .ini files.

I saw this in a previous post

2) Rom extension, there's multiple for it, cue and iso, couldn't figure out how to add multiple tho, tried cue;iso cue, iso, and cue iso. None worked

I see that the same issues are in Stella. Has there been any resolution to these?

And yet again, this emulator doesn't use the escape key to quit. We could really use a key remapper. Maybe if you look at xmodmap, you can get a good idea how to implement it.
