taz101 2 Posted July 27, 2020 Hey Guys So weirdly most of my MAME games run fine except a handful. They go to the 'loading complete' stage then it switches back to HS. They do run directly through MAME itself but very slowly and with weird echo sound. My RL log is below - the only obvious error I can see is highlighted? 20:07:02:886 | RL | INFO | +N/A | Main - RocketLauncher v1.2.0.1 (www.rlauncher.com) 20:07:03:223 | RL | INFO | +328 | Main - System Specs: RocketLauncher Dir: D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher RocketLauncher is: 32-bit OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro SKU: Professional Total Memory: 8150.00 MB Free Memory: 5417.40 MB Used Memory: 2732.594 MB SystemType: 64-bit Physical Processors: 1 Logical Processors: 4 GPU 1 Name: NVIDIA Quadro 2000D GPU 1 RAM: 1024.00 MB GPU 1 Driver Version: 10.18.13.5330 Sound 1 Device: Realtek High Definition Audio Sound 1 Status: Enabled Sound 2 Device: NVIDIA High Definition Audio Sound 2 Status: Enabled Sound 3 Device: NVIDIA High Definition Audio Sound 3 Status: Enabled Sound 4 Device: NVIDIA High Definition Audio Sound 4 Status: Enabled Sound 5 Device: NVIDIA High Definition Audio Sound 5 Status: Enabled OS Language: English_United_Kingdom System Locale: en-GB Formats Locale: en-GB Windows UI Language: en-GB Text Encoding: Windows-1252 OS Admin Status: No RL Compatibility Flags: Latest .Net Version: v4.0.30319 Monitor #1 (\\.\DISPLAY1): 1920x1080 (1920x1080 work) [32bit] [60hz] [Landscape] (Primary) Current AHK Desktop Width: 1920 Current AHK Desktop Height: 1080 Monitor #1 DPI: 100 ErrorMode: 0 AutoHotkey Path: AHK Version: 1.1.13.00 Unicode: No 20:07:03:223 | RL | INFO | +0 | CheckFile - Checking if D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe exists 20:07:03:224 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - Using HyperSpin normal mode for version 1.5.1.0 found at: D:\Arcade\HyperSpin.exe 20:07:03:225 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - Raw CLI received: "MAME alien3" 20:07:03:225 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - Loading Front End Plugin: "HyperSpin" 20:07:03:225 | RL | INFO | +0 | Process.Process - "Exist" "HyperSpin.exe" 20:07:03:231 | RL | INFO | +16 | Main - Detected HyperSpin.exe is currently running 20:07:03:232 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - HyperSpin.exe coordinates are x0 y0 w1920 h1080 20:07:03:232 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - RocketLauncher received "MAME" and "alien3" 20:07:03:328 | RL | INFO | +94 | Main - Found a "Games Options.ini" file, loading it into memory. 20:07:03:346 | RL | INFO | +15 | Main - alien3 is switching to emulator MAME (0.166) (Gun Games) via: D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Settings\MAME\Games.ini 20:07:03:346 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - Checking for a [MAME (0.166) (Gun Games)] section in D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Settings\MAME\Emulators.ini 20:07:03:346 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - Checking for a [MAME (0.166) (Gun Games)] section in D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Settings\Global Emulators.ini 20:07:03:347 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - Found [MAME (0.166) (Gun Games)] in D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Settings\Global Emulators.ini 20:07:03:348 | RL | INFO | +0 | CheckFile - Checking if D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Modules\MAME\MAME.ahk exists 20:07:03:358 | RL | INFO | +16 | Main - CRC Check - CRC matches, this is an official unedited module. 20:07:03:358 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - alien3 will use module: D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Modules\MAME\MAME.ahk 20:07:03:385 | RL | INFO | +15 | Main - Using SkipChecks method "Rom Only". 20:07:03:389 | RL | INFO | +16 | CheckFile - Checking if D:\Arcade\Emulators\MAME (0.166) (Gun Games)\mame64.exe exists 20:07:03:390 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - INI Keys read 20:07:03:390 | RL | INFO | +0 | CheckFile - Checking if D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Module Extensions\7z.exe exists 20:07:03:391 | RL | INFO | +0 | CheckFile - Checking if D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Module Extensions\7z.dll exists 20:07:03:399 | RL | INFO | +0 | Main - "alien3" does not qualify for MultiGame.

Creezz67 126 Posted July 28, 2020 It's called emulation. You will not get 100% of games working. Also try another version of MAME emulator for specific games that do not load. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taz101 2 Posted July 28, 2020 @Spawk @gigapig Me again :/ these games worked fine before I reinstalled my OS. Also rolled back graphics card driver but didnt help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would suggest making sure they run fine in mame itself before even thinking about worrying about RL/HS. Might help to know specifically which roms are giving you problems... although this kind of "some work, some don't" usually suggests that you are mix and matching romsets and mame versions.

It's: Alien 3 Jurrasic Park Lethal Enforcers Operation Wolf Point Blanc Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Terminator 2 Judgement Day Time Crisis WWF Wrestlefest A lot of those are light gun games (although i'm just using the sticks). Indeed I believe all the light gun games above use a different MAME version that has 'light gun' on the title or something but I havent changed any roms/mame versions so nothing has 'changed' persay there since they worked before Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taz101 2 Posted July 29, 2020 They dont run right in MAME so issue isnt RL related as you rightly said. I'm with you on mismatch of Rom sets/mame etc but nothing has changed on my build from those aspects, these were all working before? Only change persay was a Windows update Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thatman84 1,414 Posted July 31, 2020 Which mame version is it? So after a windows update some games stopped working in mame directly? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So most games run fine except a bunch listed above that open but run REALLY slow with choppy/doubled echo'd sound basically unplayable. I can download a newer version of MAME but then my roms wont work needing new AHK file etc would rather just find out why these arent working ideally im sure its a simple silly thing ive done maybe in an ini file or RL?

taz101 2 Posted August 2, 2020 To update I have resolved this. My Video setting needed to be changed from Opengl to dddraw which looks slightly blockier than opengl and it refuses to add scanlines but is much smoother. d3d displays black screen but audio correct.
