I was trying to make a gamecenter on XBMC using Advanced Launcher and it worked pretty well until running Project64, launching with huge framedrops.You system seems not enough powerfull to run XBMC and Project64 at the same time. Using a script to suspend/resume or close/restart XBMC could be the solution : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=5 or http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=6

pssuspend XBMC.exe
"C:\Program Files\zsnesw\zsnesw.exe" -m -s -v 41 "%1"
pssuspend -r XBMC.exe
nircmd win max process XBMC.exe
Code:
"C:\Program Files\zsnesw\zsnesw.exe" -m -s -v [b]41[/b] "%1"
The choice of the 41 value is linked to the video mode (windowed/fullscreen/resolution) you are using and could be different depending the system you are using. Take a look at the zsnesw.cfg file for the list of the mode and select the one corresponding to your system.

If your launcher argument is "%rom%" the command line must be under this form :
Code:
"C:\Program Files\zsnesw\zsnesw.exe" -m -s -v [b]41[/b] %1
If your launcher argument is only %rom% the command line must be under this form :
Code:
"C:\Program Files\zsnesw\zsnesw.exe" -m -s -v [b]41[/b] "%1"
BTW, as fr500 suggest you, use a more recent updated SNES emulator than ZSNES.

ie: open a cmd window and type c:\mybatchfile.bat c:\roms\romfile.zip
Also... zsnes is so long on the tooth now, try something more modern like retroarch
So how would I configure Retroarch to work, with the same principle as zsnes? How would the .bat file look like? Sorry for the lack of knowledge, I don't know much at all about scripting..
