If I wanted to pass ≥2 items to the port, Would that be possible? As it stands, I can pass a single main game file to it, but not any of the numerous addons.

I think ALA contains the same bug as RCB regarding scraping from MOBYGAMES. When exporting the data to nfo files, the developer and publisher are not placed in the files. Could you have a look at this?

Thanks,

Just one quick question, apologies if I'm asking a daft question but I'm having a bit of trouble getting the wiimote to work with dolphin. I use a Logitech dinovo mini for xbmc and thought the Bluetooth dongle that came with would work with xbmc. Do I need to buy another Bluetooth dongle or should it work?

I'm using windows 7 xbmc version dharma on an Asus Eeebox. Hope that helps.

If your controller is mapped a certain way with XBMC and another way with your emulators, because both a running at the same time... and still active you could have effectivelly problems. What you can try is to suspend XBMC when the emulator is running using this small script : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=5. If it is not working, you can try is to close XBMC when the emulator is running using this small script : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=6. If it is not even working... so there is something wrong into you controler/emulator mapping configuration.

shalamigri Wrote:Thanks for all of your help Anglescry. I have everything working pretty much the way I want it now.

Just to let you know, my Xbox controller isn't mapped with XBMC, but I THINK I know what was causing the problem. I have 6 working emulators, but I was only losing control of my D-pad in mame and no other emulators.

I originally had mame set up to run with scanlines and also to skip the game info on startup. This was working fine with Maximus Arcade as well. For Maximus, I was using this argument:

%file -skip_gameinfo -nowindow

For some reason, when I ran my mame games from the Adavanced Launcher in XBMC, I noticed that scanlines were not present. I used the arguments to run MAME that were on the wiki page:

-inipath "C:\Program Files\mame location" "%rom%"

I instead switched to these arguments:

"%rom%" -skip_gameinfo -nowindow

Once I did this, my scanlines were back and I don't appear to be losing my D-pad button maps anymore. Removing the -inipath seems to have fixed my problem.

Thanks for all of the help.

Code:

<game>
    <title>Mario Golf</title>
    <platform>Nintendo 64</platform>
    <year>1999</year>
    <publisher>Camelot Software Planning</publisher>
    <genre>Sports</genre>
    <plot>Since Mario rescued Princess Peach in Super Mario 64‚ he's been thoroughly enjoying his free time. Bowser hasn't been causing too much trouble‚ so Mario and his friends have decided to take a trip to the golf course. Waialae Country Club wouldn't allow a couple of underdressed plumbers to become members‚ so they've come up with their own golf game for Nintendo 64. Mario Golf 64 features an all-star line up of 10 golfers from Nintendo's cast of video game celebrities‚ including Mario‚ Luigi‚ and Princess Peach. Each golfer has an individual set of strengths and weaknesses. A highlight of Mario Golf 64 is a special "Time Attack Mode‚" where players must compete to finish a round of golf as quickly as possible. Mario Golf 64 features an impressive line-up of six courses‚ which means you'll have to master a total of 108 holes. An optional "Club Handicap Mode" ensures that you stay close to the competition‚ so Luigi won't get too frustrated if he falls behind. Even though the golfers are cartoons‚ the physics are as realistic as possible. The CPU calculates the exact ball movement based on wind direction‚ the strength of the strike‚ and any spin you may choose to place on the ball. </plot>
</game>

Maybe it is not working with some specific games or platforms. Please could you point me game+plaform items that generate the problem?
