- mephistopoa - 2011-07-16 Hi guys, I'm having problems trying to run znes, every time I try to launch it, it is like XBMC refreshes the screen and stays on the same place, zsnes is not launched. I'm pretty sure I've followed the wizard properly as I've created more launcher to test and every single time it fails to launch. Can you guys give me a clue of what to do please? I'm using Dharma, Windows 7 64bit - Angelscry - 2011-07-16 mephistopoa Wrote:Hi guys,If nothing happen, that's mean that there is something wrong into your ZSNES launcher configuration. Do you have followed the corresponding WIKI page for the configuration of ZSNES to use with ZBMC/Advanced launcher ? http://www.gwenael.org/xbmc/index.php?title=ZSNES#Windows - Angelscry - 2011-07-16 zugol Wrote:Yes, it does. But if the emulation is fullscreen, escape key is disabled. And I can't exit the game... What I try to do is start dolphin-emu windowed and maximised. If I can have the cursor flying over the menubar, escape will work.Which linux distribution are you using? Which versions of XBMC and Dolphin-emu are you using? Because on my system (Archlinux 64bit / XBMC 10.1-3 / Dolphin r7679) the escape key if working perfectly in all the cases (fullscreen or windowed) Do you have another application that is running at the same time that could capture the ESC key action instead of Dolphin? - mephistopoa - 2011-07-16 Angelscry Wrote:If nothing happen, that's mean that there is something wrong into your ZSNES launcher configuration. Do you have followed the corresponding WIKI page for the configuration of ZSNES to use with ZBMC/Advanced launcher ? http://www.gwenael.org/xbmc/index.php?title=ZSNES#Windows Yes I did. When it asks for the files after selecting the executable, it is the roms folder? I've tried setting it up as rom folder, root of zsnes, and still the same, it doesn't launch. Does zsnes need to be in a specific location like program files? - Angelscry - 2011-07-16 mephistopoa Wrote:Yes I did. When it asks for the files after selecting the executable, it is the roms folder? I've tried setting it up as rom folder, root of zsnes, and still the same, it doesn't launch.Yes, it ask for the roms folder. ZSNES not need to be on a specific directory but ZSNES must only work correclty. Once you have created the launcher, do you have added the roms to the launcher (automatically or manually) using the launcher context menu. When you create a launcher, the roms are not automatically linked to the launcher. You have to add them next. Version 1.4.5 - Angelscry - 2011-07-16 Version 1.4.5 : This new version of Advanced Launcher, add a another scrapper for games metadata. This scrapper is based on TheGamesDB API and allows, like other scrappers, to download games information, thumbs and fanarts images of your favorites games. Changelog :

Thanks for that tip, I thought that zsnes would list the files. Now I'm trying to add the images for each rom =) - mephistopoa - 2011-07-17 Does the fanart works well on aeon? I noticed the thumb works fine, but so far the fanart doesn't show up even addind it amnually to the rom - Angelscry - 2011-07-17 mephistopoa Wrote:Does the fanart works well on aeon?Fanart works with skins that are able to correctly display them. Which version of Aeon are you talking about? Are you using Aeon MQ2 or Aeon Nox? - mephistopoa - 2011-07-17 I noticed a huge drop in performance running zsnes from advanced launcher compared to launching zsnes manually. I've checked every single filter setting. launching manually I can use all the HQ filter, vsync and triple buffering without issues, when using the launcher even without the filters it has shuttering, with the filters then gets really laggy - mephistopoa - 2011-07-17 Angelscry Wrote:Fanart works with skins that are able to correctly display them. Which version of Aeon are you talking about? Are you using Aeon MQ2 or Aeon Nox? I'm using aeon65, not sure if it is still supported as I noticed now there is nothing on aeon forum regarding this version - Angelscry - 2011-07-17 mephistopoa Wrote:I noticed a huge drop in performance running zsnes from advanced launcher compared to launching zsnes manually. I've checked every single filter setting.This means that your system is not enough powerful to run XBMC and ZSNES at the same time. What you can do is to use a batch script that will close XBMC before starting ZSNES. And when ZSNES will be closer the script will automatically restart XBMC. You will found a tutorial how to use this kind of script here :

It's Skins which need to support Advanced Launcher functionalities, not the opposite. Aeon65 if an old version of Aeon. And I'm pratically sure that this version do not support display of fanarts for program add-ons (and so, not support Advanced Launcher). - mephistopoa - 2011-07-17 Angelscry Wrote:This means that your system is not enough powerful to run XBMC and ZSNES at the same time.
