Title: Superb front end!! One thing missing, though.
Post by: liveinabin on October 05, 2014, 08:57:54 AM
Hi all, just discovered mGalaxy this morning (after a month long fight trying to get Hyperspin to behave!). Anyway, mGalaxy achieved in less than a minute what Hyperspin failed to do in a month.  All my MAME and model 2 games work perfectly!

However, I'm using (and loving) the excellent Sega Model 3 emulator, Supermodel.  Has anyone managed to implement this into mGalaxy yet?  I must admit, it's pretty much the whole point of my building an arcade cab so I'd love to get it going.

Add it to the systems.xml located in the .\mGalaxy\Data folder.

The command line I use:

Code: [Select]
<Cmd id="0" name="Supermodel" value="&quot;%path\%file%ext&quot; -fullscreen" />
note: make a folder for Super Model 3 in the Data folder, and also place a icon.png inside it.

Bigby is correct !
Just insert this lines block in 'systems.xml' (file inside the mGalaxy data folder)

Code: [Select]
<System>
<Name>Sega Model 3</Name>
<AppPath/>
<RomPath/>
<SnapPath/>
<VidPath/>
<Emu selected="0">
<Cmd id="0" name="Supermodel" value="&quot;%path\%file%ext&quot; -fullscreen"/>
</Emu>
<Extensions>.zip</Extensions>
<Active>False</Active>
<Script>True</Script>
<Database>False</Database>
</System>

You'll have to create a folder called 'Sega Model 3' in the mGalaxy data folder and place a file called icon.png inside it (simply copy/paste the one from 'Sega Model 2' if you want to do quickly)

This system is being officially added to mGalaxy, an icon will be created an posted here in the meanwhile. This is an emulator which support volume command line...so you'll have the opportunity to set the emulator volume directly from mGalaxy.

Thanks for the icon mGalaxy, now I just need icons for some others. I'll make a new thread about it.  :)

No script are needed for this game.
And there is really few options, on my configuration file I have only

Code: [Select]
XResolution = 1024
YResolution = 768
FullScreen = 1

And joystick config.

If the program load and close immediatley, I think it s a path problem, or not compatible game.

Thanks Aeliss for the reply,what have you put on the system xml for supermodel emulator.
everything looks right,but when i choose a game the emulator comes on the screen,but waits for you
to choose a game,so picking a game on mgalaxy only brings up the supermodel emulator. thanks again

Hu ??

You are sure you don't use a supermodel frontend ? like SM3EasyBox ?

Supermodel is a command based application, without GUI. It load the game or close immediatly.
