Creating a PGM2 Emulator / Wheel?

[bzeeb]

I'm checking out the custom Mame for PGM2 games (oriental legends 2 etc), but I don't know how to create a custom wheel for it.  Unfortunately to get these working you need to run their associated .bat files instead of just starting up Mame.  Any thoughts how to set this up?  I figure it would be similar to just running a .exe file for say a PC game like SFV, but I am unsure how to set that up either.

Edit0: Ended setting it up following this guide and using PCLauncher, but when I launch the .bat hyperlaunch stays in focus and doesn't put the focus on the new window that opens.  Edit1: Fixed this by going into the rom and setting the AppWaitTime to point at the mame.exe as shown in the link above.

I wish though I could just add these 2 games (Knights of Valor 3 and Oriental Legends 2) as extra ROMs in my MAME Wheel.  Any tips how to do that???  Edit2: Below is how to do just that! @ninja2bceen

You could just add them into your PGM database (or MAME if you aren't running a dedicated PGM wheel/system). Then just launch them with an alternate emulator from RocketLauncher.

@Metalzoic I mean I got it to work if I create a PC Games system and use PCLauncher as my module... I don't get how to set PCLauncher to be my alternate emulator UNDER my MAME System.

If I try to add an alternate emulator here my only module options are MAME.ahk, I need PCLauncher so I can set the .bat file appropriately (see pics).  I'm not sure where I need to place PCLauncher.ahk (which I assume would let me edit the global settings of the emulator to allow for .bat files) to showup here.

Basically just need to better understand how to house multiple emulators under one wheel.

Edit: Going through this Rocketlauncher explanation now.

Edit2: Fixed my problem, see answer above in top post!

Maybe we should also post the final rl, xml etc to help assist with all this so folks just have to change the letter to the drive
