(NES, SNES and Genesis all work great)Emulators configuration are avaliable on the Advanced Launcher dedicated WIKI pages : http://www.gwenael.org/xbmc/index.php?title=Main_Page
Edit- It seems when I click on the error ok button and then go to file/open rom and search for the rom manually it will work that way. Any idea how to fix it?
my other problem is when I click add items it doesn't scrape and collect any thumbs or fanart for the roms but when I go into the launcher and click edit item on a game and click thumbs or fan art it will get it. Is there a way to get around this so I don't have to do every game manually? I'm a noob and would appreciate any help.
Version 1.6.0 and 1.7.0 of Project64 do not manage command line parameters with the same manner. The wiki page description (http://www.gwenael.org/xbmc/index.php?title=Project64) is for the free version of Project64 (version 1.6.0). To use the version 1.7.0, you need to modify the launcher argument from %rom% to "%rom%"
For your second problem, the automatic and semi-automatic data/thumbs/fanarts scraping ONLY occurs when you add NEW items. If you have already added some items (without any data/thumbs/fanarts) you need to remove them from your launcher list (clear items list option), select the right data/thumbs/fanarts scrapers into Advanced Launcher settings, and then select the Add new items to import all.
