Launching MAME from Launcher 1.02 The working directory from MAME defaults to that of XBMC. This can be seen as several MAME directories are created in the XBMC programe dir (roms cfg dir etc).
This explains a problem I have had. To get MAME working I needed to use the -rp switch (or -rompath) as MAME could not find it's config file.
This also poses a problem with Project64 (v1.6) (Nintendeo 64 emulator). Has anyone got this working? It can't find it's ROM path and there is no way to pass this on the command line. Also rom's that have spaces and unusual chars that need escaping won't work as for Project64. I think that this second issues is the actual issue here.
To do this Project64 needs the rom name and path in Quotes ie
Project64.exe "d:\Roms\N64\doom64 (u)!.z64"
Has anyone found away around this? or another N64 Emulator with works as well as Project64?
Thanks BRETT
Does setting the ROM path via the file menu work?
