Title: Filters return an empty game list ????
Post by: Liegeois1892 on February 27, 2014, 01:29:04 PM

Hi All,

Mgalaxy is running fine with my emulators except for DEMUL (Sega Dreamcast) and SNES9X.
All Paths are correctly setup but I can't see the roms...
Initially, the filter was on 'Favorites Only' that explains the problem but now that I've changed it to 'All', I still have the same message...
Any Idea ??

Thanks :-)

The chosen emulator has no influence on the snapshot display!
For all snapshots to be displayed you have to:
1) Point to the right folder
2) Have "Available Only" unchecked in the menu IF:
    - You don't have that specific rom...but want the screenshot to be displayed
    - Your rom is not in the correct format.
    (Right under the 'Rom Path' field you have a line with all accepted extensions)
3) If you're using a database, be sure that this database match your romset naming
    (The naming convention inside of the database should match your romset naming)

Ok Thanks a lot !
I've checked for DEMUL and my roms are indeed zip files (not supported by MGalaxy ???)
The strange thing is that even if I unzip the file, the format in not supported neither...

Can you specify in which format I should have my Naomi games running with DEMUL ?
Thanks

Naomi rom aren't possible by defaut (or perhaps on a new version) the Dreamcast demul part is only for cdi and gdi format.

So I think you have made a special modification for them in Systems.xml ?

For mine I have.

Code: [Select]

  <System>
    <Name>Arcade Naomi</Name>
    <AppPath>F:\emulateur\arcade\Demul 0.5.8\demul.exe</AppPath>
    <RomPath>F:\emulateur\arcade\Demul\Roms naomi</RomPath>
    <SnapPath>F:\emulateur\Mgalaxy\snapsemul\arcade</SnapPath>
    <VidPath />
    <Emu selected="0">
      <Cmd id="0" name="Demul" value="-run=naomi -rom=%file" />
    </Emu>
    <Extensions>.zip</Extensions>
    <Active>True</Active>
    <Script>True</Script>
    <Database>False</Database>
  </System>
And I m using a script.
