In response to the duplicate files with the -1 I figured out what happened. I think that I somehow extracted my romset twice to the same folder prompting either windows or 7zip to add the -1. I deleted the duplicate files and everything still launched okay.

Yes, all of my files are like that. My roms look like this. There is a daytona-1.zip and a daytona.zip in the folder. It doesn't seem to be causing any issues. I'm not sure if my set is merged, non merged, or split, but it works, so I'm a happy camper.

The only reason why I finally thought to do that is because I had to do a similar thing with mame a while back, making a roms folder inside and outside of the launchbox folder. I figured since the sega model 2 was an arcade system like mame I could try a similar thing. Anyways, thanks a ton!!!

Thank you very much for working with me so long. You guys are great. When I posted my problem I figured it wouldn't be responded to for a long time, but it was almost immediately responded to.

The only thing is I have no clue why the Platform tab says the games location is Games\Sega Model 2 but the edit tab says D:\m2emulator\roms

So, I finally got it to work. It's not Ideal but it now launches directly into the games. I had to move the emulator to the root of my D drive. And I also had to create a roms folder withing the emulator folder putting my games in there. I also had to keep roms in my Launchbox folder. I then deleted the platform and the emulator from launchbox. I then re added them directing launchbox to the new emulator location and importing the roms but telling launchbox to not move them to the launchbox directory. Now when I go underneath platforms it shows my roms being in Games\Sega Model 2 but in my emulator INi. I have the rom path set as the rom folder within my D drive. And it now launches directly into the game. I will post pictures to show what I am talking about.

Here you go

Ok, I see. It is a folder I created to put programs in on my M drive.

I'm not sure I understand. Are you asking if I have the program installed in Program files on my C drive? If that is what you are asking. The answer is no. I have the emulator installed on my M drive. The M drive is where I have always had it installed. I didn't move it from the C drive.

I don't know what happened. when I tried typing out the whole path instead of copy and pasting it. it stopped giving me and error message. But now it is back to just launching the emulator and not the game.

I added the .exe and it still gave me this error.

I did copy and paste the path but when I clicked on the game in launchbox it didn't even launch the emulator. It gave me an error message.

How do I change it from relative path to full path?

After changing it, it will still launch from within the emulator but it still wont launch from launchbox.

I understand. I went ahead and changed it back thanks for mentioning it.

I do have a modern cpu. I tried it with the other exe and it still didn't work.

Is this what you are talking about.

Yes, if I open the emulator and load the rom it runs. However if I select the game in launchbox it does not run.

Is there some sort of Command line parameter I could try?

When I initially installed launchbox I created a launchbox folder and extracted launchbox in it. creating Launchbox/Launchbox. I never tried to fix it because all of my other emulators launched perfectly fine. So, when I typed that in in the Ini. It was the correct path.

I'm sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you meant the quote symbols "". I did remove the semicolon : but it didn't fix my problem. Here is a picture of my new INI. file.

There are no ";" symbols in front of Dir1

My Roms are stored in my launchbox games folder and I changed the path in the INI. file

If this helps, this is my config file for the emulator.

I have to Manually go in and select the games from with in the emulator
