Problem with merged Mame and Daphne wheel

[Bingowasyourmom]

Hi,

I hope you can help me with an issue I am having.

(I am still newbie so I apologise in advance if this is a dumb question but I have searched and searched and I can't find any help on this...)

I am trying to set up my Mame wheel to include all the Daphne games as well.

I have merged the xml lists and everthing is working as it should (entries with a mame <exe> tag open the rom in my mame folder and entries with a daphne <exe> tag open the coresponding frame file in my Daphne folder) apart from Badlands.

Because there is already a mame rom called 'badlands' both entries on my xml are treated as the same game, regardless of the executable tag and I don't know how to get Hyperspin to differentiate between the two.

I can't rename the rom or the Daphne framefile.

Any idea how I can have both games on the same wheel but have them open in their appropriate emulator?

Why can't you rename your Daphne files? If I remember right I renamed a couple (like Dragon's Lair HD)

But why this shouldn't happen again in the first place if they have different names in your database. Like Badlands & Badlands LD etc...

Or maybe I'm missing something since I haven't even had my coffee yet.

Hi

Could you tell me what files you renamed (is it just the framefile and the folder that the framefile points to?

I have tried renaming the framefile and the badlands folder within my daphne folder and then amending the game name within the mame and daphne xml files and updating the framefile location within the daphne loader but it doesn't work.

If I try to launch the game in hyperspin I get an error saying "Bad commend line or initialization problem (see daphne_log.txt for details). To run daphne you must specify which game to run and which laserdic player you are using."

Can you post their entries in your XML? I'm curious how it can even confuse them if they are named differently.

Not sure on the Daphne re-naming thing. I set mine up forever ago and could be mistaken about renaming. Although it does seem like I changed Road Avenger to Road Blaster or vice-versa...
